Topic: Network Design Report and Presentation Task details: In this assessment, students must demonstrate their understanding of critical thinking in an IT context by examining given problems and proposing solutions using the methods explored in the unit. Students will choose a solution, then implement and evaluate their solution. Students must submit a report that outlines the steps they followed to solve the problems. The approximate word length is up to 1500 words with topology diagrams. The report should be presented with supporting material as appendices, such as the calculations for the IP addressing scheme Practical assignment brief Bank of Adelaide has different branches all around Australia, BOA is keen to expand more new branches in big cities: New branch in Sydney (700 users) New branch in Melbourne (600 users) New branch in Brisbane (500 users) You are required to design the topology for the four new sub-networks and their connection to the head office (Adelaide). You must document each step you have taken, including your research sources. . You need to come up with a design report and send it to your technical manager. Report: The report must contain the following sect New branch in Perth (400 users) The BOA uses 187.XY.0.0/16 at the bank headquarters in Adelaide with 1000 users and needs to use a subnetting structure to incorporate the new cities. Adhering to the subnetting scheme and using VLSM, assign a subnet address to the networks and their links. Each branch's offices have 8 levels of building and access to the Internet is crucial for each office, as well as inter-branch-office networking. Each branch has 3 servers which are located on the Fifth floor of each branch. The large branch headquarter is in Adelaide and the new subnets must have connectivity with headquarter office. You need to think about cost-effectiveness and BOA is aiming to create an INTRANET for its branches in Australia. You need to think about creating a VPN for this bank. Recently two branches in Sydney and Melbourne were impacted by DDoS attacks and ransomware attacks. The servers in Sydney and Melbourne are out of reach and the customers are facing losing their personal information such as credit card numbers and other related bank details. It can create a big impact on the reputation of BOA among other competitors. You need to come up with the solutions for these types of attacks and also physical securities for server rooms. Note: XY is the last 2 numbers in your student's ID Elements Your goal is to design, deploy and successfully implement their business requirements using all related hardware and software elements for your networks and also secure them from any external attacks such as DDoS and ransomware with mitigation strategies. Solution You are required to design the topology for the four new sub-networks and their connection to the head office (Adelaide). You must document each step you have taken, including your research sources. You need to come up with a design report and send it to your technical manager. Report: The report must contain the following sections: 1. Introduction: Critical analysis of networking requirements 2. Local Area Network (LAN): Design and description of Local Area Network for all subnets which must include: a. Network topology: Discuss the reasons for choosing the network topology. LAN design connections to the servers, connections to other subnets, and the internet/intranet 3. Hardware/Software: Provide a complete description of all interconnecting devices, such as (switches, routers, hubs, access points, Firewall, IDS and IPS) and wiring used to build the network. Justify your choice. 4. Conclusion: Comprehensive summary of the work done and recommendations.
