Network Diagram
Network Design Justification
In the above network design diagram, it has the flowing elements:
Ground floor
We require 1 48-port switch for extension of ground floor network. The ground floor has a total of 22 data points. 48-port switch will be used to allow future growth. Wireless router will be used to support computing devices that do not support Ethernet LAN.
First Floor.
This floor requires two 48-port switches and wireless router to accommodate this floor’s population of 90 data points. Wireless router to be used for devices that are not supported by Ethernet LAN.
Second Floor
Second floor requires two 48-port switches and wireless router to accommodate this floor’s population of 96 data points. Wireless router to be used for devices that are not supported by Ethernet LAN.
Distribution layer switch will be used as a stub network to bring switches’ data communication to the router.
The router is used to route packets from client workstation to outside world.
