Assignment 3 Case: Small Lab

Outcomes addressed in this activity:

   

Compare and contrast different network topologies Design a basic peer-to-peer network Describe three common methods for network switching Describe information commonly carried in Ethernet frames

Course outcome: IT273-1: Appraise network architectures, models, topologies, and structures. IT273-4: Design a TCP/IP-Based Network. The Surfing Shoppe Lab is a division of the Banana Tree Travel Agency. This small lab has recently expanded to seven computers and is trying to design and layout their network across their two-room facility. In the main room, each of the five researchers has their own computer, and one printer is shared among all employees. The printer can be connected to a computer and shared with the other computers or connected directly to a network hub. In the lab room, the other two computers are specialized systems that control lab tools. The five researchers commonly work from their computer and use a remote desktop session on the specialized lab computers to manipulate experiments in the lab. Propose a network layout for the lab. Justify your topology. Instructions: Respond to each of the Assignment requirements and submit all work to the Dropbox as a single file. Project requirements: 1. Complete the unit 2 review questions: a. The _______ physical topology consists of a single cable that connects all nodes on a network without intervening connectivity devices. b. A(n) ____ backbone is the simplest kind of backbone. c. Fast Ethernet operates at ______. d. ____ is a component of a network’s logical topology that determines how connections are created between nodes.
