Task 01: There are many different network systems types and topologies available. Discuss the benefits and constraints of different network systems types, topologies and suggest a suitable network topology for Winsoft (Pvt) Ltd networks and justify your answer.
There are many types of networks system used to connect devices.
1. LAN (Local Area Network). 2. MAN (Metropolitan Area Network). 3. WAN (Wide Area Network).
Local Area Network.
Among the three types of networks MAN is provide biggest coverage. Through MAN it could able to connect long distance in city. MAN is the backbone of all types of networks. It could be able to interconnect among the cities.
There are many types of network topologies are widely using to define the physical and logical arrangement of network devices . Network topologies
1. Bus topology 2. Ring topology 3. Mesh topology 4. Star topology 5. Tree topology
1. Bus topology
In this topology all the devices are connected to a centralized single linear cable. This cable is back bone of the network Connect all computers with the support of centralized main cable. It could easy to make network
Figure 1
Disadvantages of bus topology
Number of connections are limited. Because the man cable length is limited and we can connect the nodes only between the terminators.
If we find the mistake in the man cable, the entire network will be shut down because backbone is the only data transfer path for entire network.
It seems the minimum security
Difficult to find if there is any fault in the entire network.
2. Ring topology
The ring topology will connected with a single cable in circular or round shape All the computer are switch on during .Ring topology systems systems in place.
Benefits of ring topology
No need of a central server.
Easy to add or remove new nodes.
Less cost than star topology.
Easy to detect network faults.
Disadvantages of ring topology
Delay in transferring the data
If we want to connect new network we have to shut down all networks because all wires connected together.
If there is a mistakes in one connection entre network will be closed because we need transfer the data in all computers.
3. Mesh topology
Figure 3
Very expensive o
In this topology all nodes are interconnect with each other so we need high amount of transmission media cables.
In this topology all nodes are interconnected to every other node of the network. If we send a data packet to particular node of the network, that will travel many different path to reach that node, this leads to redundancy of many network connection.
4. Star topology
All computers and devices will connected with a main switch and other computers will be connected connecte d in star shape
If there is a fault in central hub or switch entire network will will collapsed
6. Tree topology
This topology is a hierarchical manner of network n etwork nodes, there is root node at the top of the hierarchy. There are client nodes under the root node. The root node (top level node) is commonly a main frame computer client nodes are mini or microcomputer.
Disadvantages of tree topology
In this topology all the star connections and all the single nodes are connected to the backbone so if there any failure in the backbone, the entire network will be shut down. It is a very biggest and complexity complex ity topology. That’s why difficult to maintenance, high cost
and configure the network also difficult. 4. Hybrid Topology
Before starting about Hybrid topology, we saw that a network a network topology is a connection of various links and nodes, communicating with each other for transfer of data. We also saw various advantages and disadvantages of Star, Bus, Star, Bus, Ring, Ring, Mesh Mesh and and Tree Tree topologies. Now let’s discuss what Hybrid Network topology topology is and why it finds its application in Wide
Area Networks. Hybrid, as the name suggests, is mixture of two different things. Similarly in this
Figure 6
Hybrid Network Topology Image
Advantages of Hybrid Network Topology in to Winsoft (Pvt) Ltd.
Reliable : Unlike
other networks, fault detection and troubleshooting is easy in this type of topology. The part in which fault is detected can be isolated from the rest of network and required corrective measures can be taken, WITHOUT affecting the functioning of rest of the network.
easy to design this type of architecture and it’s a tough job for designers. Configuration and installation process needs to be very efficient.
Costly Hub: The hubs used to connect two distinct networks, are very expensive. These hubs
are different from usual hubs as they need to be intelligent enough to work with different architectures and should be function even if a part of network is down.
Costly Infrastructure: As
hybrid architectures are usually larger in scale, they require a lot of cables, cooling systems, sophisticate network devices, etc.
Hybrid topology is the suitable topology for this scenario .
According to my knowledge I prefer the tree topology is most suitable option for Winsoft (Pvt) Ltd. Because In this scenario there are two buildings one is Colombo main building and other one is Kandy building first we see the main building that has 3 floors. Each floor has more than 100 computers in the network, we could able to connect all the computer in Colombo and kandy with use of Hybrid Topology. Even though there are many connection like a branches of a Hybrid if there is any fault in part other section can be functioning without without any disturbance. We are going to connect more than 100 computers in the network, if there is any fault in any section it is very easy to find the errors in the network. If we want to do the expansion the new connections are easy and possible.
Task 02: Provide a report on network related technologies and standards that would be employed to fulfill the requirements of Winsoft (Pvt) Ltd and discuss how they would impact on your solution (individually and / or collectively).
OSI Model
Open system interconnection model describes a networking ne tworking framework to implement set of rules in 7 layers. This model is a theoretical framework to understand difficult interconnections in networking. Control process transfer from one layer to another layer.
2.
Data link layer (layer 2)
This layer encode and decode data packet into bites. This layer manages transmission transmission protocol and this handles faults in physical layer, this layer has two sub layers media access control (MAC) and logical link control (LLC) MAC layer controls access methods and permissions to transfer data. LLC layer control frame synchronization. Switches performs at data link layer. 3. Network layer (layer 3)
Network layer handles Switching and routing functions, develops logical (logical address mapping) path for transfer data from device to device. Routers, layer 3 switchers perform at network layer. 4. Transport layer (layer 4)
Transport layer confirms data packets are transferred without any faults or duplication. d uplication. TCP/IP found in this layer. Transport layer delivers: - Message segmentation - Message acknowledgement - Message traffic control Session multiplexing
7. Application layer (layer 7)
This layer supports application and end user processes, application layer interacts with the operating system when the end user select to transfer data or do any other network operations. This layer has generally needed operations: Resource sharing and device redirection Remote file access Remote printer access Inter-process communication Network management Directory services Electronic messaging Network virtual terminals
IEEE 802.11 Standards
802.11 is the generic name of a family of related standards for Wi-Fi wireless networks. The numbering system comes from the IEEE 802.11, which uses "802" to designate many standards of computer networks including Ethernet (802.3). 802.11 standards define rules for communication in wireless local area networks (WLAN). Popular 802.11 standards contain 802.11a, 802.11g, and also 802.11n.
-Transfer Data
-Terminate the connection
32bits divided as network ID and Host ID, IPV-4 has 5 major classes Class A – first first 1 byte for network ID and remaining 3 bytes for Host ID Class B – first first 2 bytes for network ID and remaining 2 bytes for Host ID Class C – first first 3 bytes for network ID and remaining 1 byte b yte for Host ID Class D – this this is used for multicasting. Class E – this this reserved for future use. IPV-6 is 128bit scheme and this is the latest version, IPV-6 allows more users and n nodes to transfer data between them. It allows nearly three hundred and forty trillion unique address. Example of IPV-6 address: 2001:db8: ffff: ffff: 1:201:02ff:fe03:0405
Justification
OSI reference model to describe how information is transferred from one network component to another, from the moment a user enters information using a keyboard and mouse so that when the information is converted into electrical or light signals transferred along of a length of wire.
Task 03: Describe the importance of different protocols in data communication. And discuss the roles of different protocols that you would have to employ in this solution and how they enable the effective utilization of your networking system
Data Communication protocols
There are many protocols in network technology Example: Table 1
OSI layer Name of the layer 7 Application 6 5 4 3 2
Presentation Session Transport Network Data link
Common Protocols HTTP, FTP, SMTP, DNS, Telnet
TCP, SPX IP Ethernet
FTP is a standard network protocol for transferring files between computers on the network. This is an application protocol that uses the TCP/IP protocol. It is generally used to transfer web side files from their designer to the computer that acts like their server for everyone in the internet. Also it is generally helped to download programs and other documents to our computer co mputer from other server. Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
HTTP is the underlying protocol used by the World Wide Web. HTTP defines how messages formatted and transferred, and what actions Web servers and internet browsers should take in response to several commands. For an example, when we enter a particular URL in our browser, this actually sends an HTTP command to the Web server directing it to search and transmit the requested Web page.
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol
(SMTP)
This is a protocol for transferring email messages between clients to servers. Most e-mail systems that send mail over the Internet use SMTP to send messages from one server to another; messages can be retrieved with an email client using POP or IMAP. In addition, SMTP is generally used to send messages from a mail client to a mail server. This is why it is necessary to specify both the POP or IMAP server and the SMTP server when you configure your email application.
Ethernet
Originally known as Alto Aloha Network, Ethernet is a network protocol p rotocol widely used local area (LAN) originally created by Xerox PARC in 1973 by Robert Metcalfe, as the first network to offer Carrier Sense Multiple Access / Collision Detection Ethernet is a solution fast, reliable network that is still widely used today, Here is a list of the different standards of Ethernet and additional information about each is shown.
Ethernet II / DIX / 802.3 Ethernet II is a revised version of Ethernet rewritten by the Digital Equipment Corporation, Intel and Xerox. Ethernet II, also known as DIX and 802.3.
Fast Ethernet / 100BASE-T / 802.3u Fast Ethernet is also known as 802.3u 100BASE-T or is a communication protocol that allows computers on a local area network to share information with each other at a rate of 100 million bits per second instead instead of the the normal 10 million BPS. Fast Fast Ethernet works over Category Category 5 cabling twisted twisted pair.
Task 04: Design a comprehensive network solution for the main and city center and explain how your design meets the requirements of Winsoft (Pvt) Ltd.
Figure 7
In the Design phase, the Networking Company staff uses the initial requirements determined during the Plan phase to direct its work. Figure 6 shows the initial topology identified during the Plan phase The design requirements document supports the specifications identified in the Prepare and Plan phases for the following:
Availability Scalability Security Manageability
The design must be flexible enough to allow for changes or additions as new goals or needs emerge. The technology must be integrated into the current operations and network management infrastructure
Task 05: Critically discuss the role of software and hardware components that you would employ in this solution and how you would utilize them to create your new network infrastructure
Software components:
In server based networking there should be a server computer and other computers in the network are called clients. Client pc’s request and receive related network services from the server computer so the server computer has a specialized operating system. system. Server computer is usually higher performance system. Using server based networking model client pc’s are able to design with minimum hardware requirements. Winsoft (Pvt) Ltd uses windows 7 operating system for the client computers because it is more user friendly than other operating systems and windows server 2012 for server computer. Table 2

Task 07: Discuss how workstation hardware inter-dependent with network components in the performance of network.
Every workstation hardware inter-dependent with network components. In a network, all devices are interconnected to share resources. When a particular device is ask for a resource from another device, the first device is mentioned to as a client. Because all devices are part of a network act in association, almost any device can be referred to as a client. Based on this, there can be different type of clients in a network. For example, if we send a data form city center to main building, first the data will go to Ethernet port of that particular computer after that Ethernet Ethernet port will send that data to switch, which is connected with particular computer, then the switch will check the address of the data and pass the data to the router after that router will pass that data to main building router via internet, then the router will check the address of the data and pass that to switch the switch will check the address of the data and transfer to the Ethernet port of that addressed computer then the user can access the data. Network Interface Card
to the machine, that is used to direct traffic amongst the computers on a network. Network cards as well change data starting at parallel format, used by computers, to a serial format necessary in data transfers and then back again to accept the data. Wired Networks A card's back plate structures a port that turns a data cable, such as an Ethernet cable, that runs from every NIC to a central hub or switch. The hub acts like a transmission, passing data among the computers through their MAC addresses as well as let them to share assets like printers and scanners. Furthermore, in a wired network, a cable actually joins each computer to each other or to a hub. Wireless Networks Wireless cards are installed like their wired counterparts, but rather than a port p ort for a cable, the card ca rd features a small antenna. The NIC interconnects with a central wireless switch or hub via radio waves. Wireless LANs are frequently suitable, but might have several limitations depending on the material a structure is made from. Choosing the Right NIC
Without it, users cannot access to the internet at all because there is NIC connected around the area. There is no signal receiver to transmit data.
Network switch
Figure 11
A network switch  is a device that manages the involvement of numerous computers or networks on the matching data connection. A network switch not include hubs or repeaters, as these devices do not consist of every ever y type of logical processors.
Network cable is used to connect and transfer data among computers and a network. The best popular used types of network cable are the twisted pair, coaxial, Ethernet cross over, and fiber optic. The unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable is used in several Ethernet networks. Each pair of wires that is housed inside of the lining cable is twisted into some additional rotations to prevent interfering from new devices on the network. The arrangement of this type of cable increases its consistency as well as it helps to reduce network n etwork disasters.
Figure 12
Coaxial cable, or coax, is a different common type of network cable. It has a copper conductor in its center and a plastic coating serves as an insulator among the center conductor and also a metal
Fiber optic network cables are used for networks that extent large distance. This category of cabling has some layers of protecting coating. It also transmits light as opposed to electrical signals like other cables. Furthermore, fiber optic is as well transmits data at high speeds and is therefore used in large network environments.
Task 08: Once the network gets up and running you need to keep a close eye on the performance and maintenance aspects of it. Therefore you are required to obtain the feedback of the users of the network resources in different aspects in order to stay updated. Design a feedback form to obtain the feedback of users. And analyze and summarize them.

Task 10:
Discuss the enhancements that you would implement after a period of one year from the execution of the solution to improve the aspects including but not limited to bandwidth, quality, security and scalability
Scalability
: Scalable network designs can grow to include new user groups and remote sites and Can support new applications without impacting the level of service delivered to existing users. Availability
: A network designed for availability is one that delivers consistent, reliable performAcne, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In addition, the failure of a single link or piece of equipment
Enhancements that I would implement after a period of one year from the execution of the solution.
We have select hybrid topology for our solution so if we need to develop our network after one year we can easily extend our network any time, Examples:
If we need new client computer in a same building, we can easily create by connecting switches with backbone.
If we need new client section or conference hall, we need only onl y a Wi-Fi router for connect them with our network.
If we want to connect a new n ew LAN in different city building, we can easily connect by using internet router with our main building router.
