You want to open your own music store, i.e. IMUSIC, in a certain section of town. For your stores, you'll need to design and implement a network and computing solution. You've done some preliminary planning and will begin with two locations (but you plan to add two more stores across town within one year). Customers will be able to purchase new and used music as well as go "online" and download music from your store. At each of your stores, connects three office computers and one computer for Point-of- Sale (POS) services You'll also need six (6) PCs in the lobby/store where customers can download music and where you can hold "training sessions" to teach people how to use MP3 devices and other basic information The two offices must be linked into a single network, with POS services and other key corporate data shared You could also have a "hand out" informal area where people can stop in and talk about music and connect to the Internet wirelessly (you might even offer free coffee to entice people to come in to your store). Ensures that all corporate conversations and records are kept secure (especially sensitive sales documents). Provides for centralized printing. There is no equipment in the firm. A full network and computer system that fits these criteria, as well as future growth plans, should be included in your strategy. The two store sites will be within a three-mile radius of each other (at some point) The establishments will require a sales system as well as invoice printing services. Question 1: Include expenses for computing equipment, network infrastructure, network servers, printers, and other relevant software, and accessories in your proposal. Include as much information as you can, as well as justifications for your choices. Explain your logical network architecture as well as your physical network and computer design (server installation, domain layout, etc.).
