Network Design and Security Analysis

The document summarizes the current network configuration of multiple computer labs at a university. It includes details on the number of PCs and IP ranges in each lab, how the PCs connect within each lab in a star topology, how the labs connect to each other via switches and routers, the number of access points used and how they connect to the network. It also discusses the current security measures, network performance limitations, and proposes solutions like using fiber optic cables and additional routers to improve coverage, capacity and security.

TABLE 1
Question 2 : Show how PCs connect within a lab
& which topology is used.

• S.O.B.
• The PCs in each Lab are connected via a central switch. The
topology used is Star topology. The Socket Outlet Box (S.O.B.)
is used to connect the central switch in a lab to the local server.
The Diagram 2 shows the networking of PCs in Network 1 Lab
Question 3 : How labs connect to each other? How many
switches and routers are used ?
Question 4 : Number of total access points & how
these access points connect to network ?
Question 5 : Detailed diagram of current network
deployment (Artificial Inteligence Lab)
Current deployment
Question 6 : Current Security Measures and
Network Performance
CURRENT SECURITY
• Implementation of Firewall
• Authentication from user
• Implementation of Network Instrution Detection System
(NIDS)

NETWORK PERFORMANCE
• Quality of network services delivered to user
• Bandwidth of network
Question 7 : Current limitations of the deployment
in any perspectives
• The larger the queues the longer the waiting time
• Speed of network
• Distance of connected devices
PROPOSED SOLUTION
Question 8 : Suggest cost effective solutions to enhance
network coverage , number of users and security measures .
• Place the router at center and higher place
• Strong and unique password
• Password regularly changed
• Keep track of development for Wi-Fi standard
• Implementation of multiple layer
Question 9 : Suggest any technology to improve
network performance by keeping current
deployment .

• Use fiber optic cable


• Purchase more router
RENEWED FUNCTIONAL
NETWORK DESIGN
Question 10 : Detailed diagram of your new proposed
network design
CONCLUSION
• Hybrid topology
- Star and bus topology

• Fiber optic cable as a new cable


Detailed diagram
• All switch is connect to each other
• 1 cable break down, the other will back up
• Example : cable between switch 0 and switch 3 is breakdown.
Still, PC1 can connect to PC3 and available to connect to
internet.
