You have been tasked with designing a new network implementation for ABC IT Institute that has recently leased a building in Melbourne CBD with the aim of offering IT related courses to its currently enrolled 400 students. The building will house some offices, classrooms, library, and computer labs. The Four-story building has six computer labs and each of these labs will have 25 computers having internet connectivity. Each lab will also have a server in the closet located inside the lab. IP phones are located in each lab to communicate to service desk. The IT Institute also wants to setup six classrooms, each containing one computer which requires internet connectivity, one whiteboard, one display monitor and an IP phone. The library will have 10 computers to allow students access to the library resources. Another 15 computers will be made available for staff and administration. Finally, wifi internet connectivity should be made available to students and staff inside campus premises with appropriate authentication/authorization methods and standards. Your task is to come up with a logical, efficient and scalable network design that will be suitable for this institute. The institute has allowed an adequate budget to purchase any networking devices that may be required, yet obviously does not want to spend more than necessary. In addition, industry- specific standards must be used and apply to IT infrastructure and services. Write a report and include: 1. Build a document giving all the necessary network designs (enough information should be provided that will allow any technician to build your network structure from scratch). 2. Simple IP addressing solution (step by step workout of the calculations) that leaves room for growth, is easy to administer and has the minimum wastage of available IP address space. 3. List all hardware and software specification of the selected devices. In your report include the following contents  Project Scope  Detailed Network diagram  Project Hardware and Software requirements - Name of the network device with manufacturer’s name, series, model and ports - Type of the cables used - Name of the server, PC with specification such as operating system, RAM, hard disk etc.  Network device configurations - Include most of the suitable feature which you have studied from laboratories 1 to 6.

Project Scope
Designing local area network and implementing provides the accessibility of IT resources and Internet in shared mode by all the users of ABC IT institute. This project aims to design the network from scrap into the four story building at Melbourne CBD leased by
ABC IT institute. The implementation of network from scrap requires the hardware and software components related to network and computing. As per the given specification of 6 labs having each of 30 computers, 1 IP Phone and one server and plan to 6 classrooms having 1 computer and display projector along with an IP phone are required to be purchased during the design and implementation of local network of ABC IT institute at newly leased four story building at Melbourne CBD.
The local network provides the information system infrastructure to students, faculties and admin people of institute to perform the works on IT platform. This enables the institute members to access the Internet and share the information resources among the teachers and students instantly in electronic mode. Information dissemination among the stakeholders of ABC Institute becomes quick and fast. Further the network infrastructure supports the institute to get the competitive advantages in area of teaching and learning processes of the institute with other competitors.
Network Diagram
The detailed network diagram of the local area network in four story building leased by ABC IT institute at Melbourne CBD is designed and presented as follows.
IP Address Solution
There are four different departments required by the ABC IT institute at its newly leased four story building at Melbourne CBD. These departments are Laboratory, Classroom, Library and Admin Office. Therefore, the local area network should have to be virtually sub networks by four segments and subnetting is used to provide the IP addresses to each of the computers connected with the local network [1]. A private IP address is used to subnet the network to assign the masked IP address to assign to hosts of the local network.
172.11.0.0 is a private IP address and this IP address is masked by subnetting method to create the required number host IP address for the hosts of individual subnet such as Lab, Class, Library and Admin of ABC IT institute. The subnetting and the IP addresses for Hosts, subnet, etc are presented under the following table.
    Subnet
    Subnet Address
    Host IP Address Range
    Broadcast Address
    Subnet Mask
    Calculation Detail
    Labortory
    172.11.0.0
    172.11.0.1 - 172.11.0.254
    172.11.0.255
    255.255.255.0
    Host bits = 8 so that total number of host addresses = 28= 256. 1 address for subnet and 1 for broadcast so that usable host addresses = 256.2 = 254

    172.11.1.0
    172.11.1.1 -...
