Network logical topology Place the network logical topology here. The logical topology should show the network hierarchical structure, logical organisation and addressing scheme. Use a separate table to show the address assignment of each device in the network. Network physical topology Place the network physical topology here. The physical topology should show the cabling layout and physical locations of the network devices. If the devices are place on racks, physical layouts of the racks should be included. Network inventory Record the following parameters for every network device and present the information in an easily readable format. Consider tables to record the information. General information · Name · Make / Manufacturer · Model Number · Device Type · Physical location · Device owner/manager · Asset/tag ID if applicable Hardware configuration · CPU, RAM, Flash · Number of network interfaces/ports of each interface type · Network modules (type, model, serial number if available) · Interface modules (type, model, serial number if available) Software configuration · Firmware Version · Operating System Version / Model · Additional software modules if applicable Interface configuration · Name/ID · Link technology e.g. Ethernet · Physical address e.g. MAC address · Logical address e.g. IP Address Management information · Admin person and contact information · IP address for remote in-band management Device configuration Save the configurations and place the configuration of each network device here or make them text files and attach as a zip. Save the configurations in the network simulation scenario and include the topography as a zip file. Change management Implement the change management as you progress in the assignment. You should be able to track the following information at the minimum: · Date the change was made · Type of the change e.g. topology, hardware, software, configuration etc. · Description of the change · Status before the change · Status after the change · Who made the change? Consider a table for this. 5 School of Business and Tourism Unit Network Management Unit code CSC73002 Assignment 1 Network configuration management Mode Individual assignment Due Date 10 Aug 2020 11:00 PM Learning Outcomes LO1 Graduate Attributes GA4 Weight 30% of overall unit assessment Suggestion This assignment is developmental and cumulative. You are strongly advised to start doing this assignment from Week-3 in your study. Leaving your starting date to the week before the due date is a very poor strategy for success in the unit. Follow the provided marking guidelines to help you successfully direct your efforts. Task Description Imagine that you have been employed by XYZ Corporation as a junior network administrator. As part of your duty, you are requested to configure and manage a network lab to perform tests on before they are deployed to the real network. The network lab imitates a typical enterprise network with the Headquarter and two branches connected over the Internet. The high-level logical topology of the network is given in Figure 1 and the physical layout of the offices is given in Figure 2. To study the network before the actual deployment, you will use a network simulator to complete the following tasks: • Task 1: Network simulation. In this task, you will create the network in a simulator from its logical topology and perform all necessary configurations for the network devices to make the network operational. Verify the network connectivity. • Task 2: Configuration management. In this task, you will document the network configurations following the network configuration management practice. Simulation Software: The organisation has 2 (two) enterprise network simulators that you may choose from. 1. eNSP Huawei Network simulator 2. Cisco Packet Tracer.

In the video, you will: • Provide your details e.g. your name, student id, year and the unit you are studying • Explain your implementation of the network on eNSP i.e. talk about your selection of the network hardware, link technologies as well as the device configuration. • Demonstrate the network connectivity between the Headquarter and the branches. Finally, publish your video on YouTube. Use the unlisted option if you do not want the video to be viewed in public. Copy the link to your video and paste it under the task-1 section of the document template provided with this assignment. Task 2: Use the template provided with this assignment for this task. CSC73002 – Network Management Assignment-1, 2020 4 Submission Format You will need to submit at least 2 files. 1. You are required to submit the assignment document in the Word DOC or DOCX or PDF format. The file will be named using the following convention: filename = FirstInitialYourLastName_CSC73002_A1.pdf (i.e. FJones_CSC73002_A1.pdf or FJones_CSC73002_A1.docx) 2. Your network configuration, including the optional configuration files if chosen. a. You must also submit your simulation network as either an eNSP or Packet Tracer file. i. eNSP must be a zip file with all devices configured and saved. ii. Packet Tracer files must be a PKT file with all devices configured and saved. b. If you do not put the configuration in the word document you must place them in text files and attach them in the network configuration zip file. Original work It is a University requirement that a student’s work complies with the Academic Policy, Chapter 4.20 on Student Academic Integrity. It is a student’s responsibility to be familiar with the Policy. Failure to comply with the Policy can have severe consequences in the form of University sanctions. For information on this Policy please refer to Chapter 4.20 on Student Academic Integrity at the following website: http://www.scu.edu.au/governance/academicboard/policy/ As part of a University initiative to support the development of academic integrity, assessments may be checked for plagiarism, including through an electronic system, either internally or by a plagiarism checking service, and be held for future checking and matching purposes. Retain duplicate copy Before submitting the assignment, you are advised to retain electronic copies of original work. In the event of any uncertainty regarding the submission of assessment items, you may be requested to reproduce a final copy. School Extension Policy In general, I will NOT give extension unless there are exceptional circumstances. Students wanting an extension must make a request at least 24 hours before the assessment item is due and the request must be received in writing at the "Special Consideration" page. http://www.scu.edu.au/governance/academicboard/policy/ https://www.scu.edu.au/current-students/student-administration/special-consideration/ CSC73002 – Network Management Assignment-1, 2020 5 Extensions within 24 hours of submission or following the submission deadline will not be granted (unless supported by a doctor’s certificate or where there are exceptional circumstances – this will be at unit assessor’s discretion and will be considered on a case by case basis). Extensions will be for a maximum of 48 hours (longer extensions supported by a doctor’s certificate or alike to be considered on a case by case basis). A penalty of 5% of the total available grade will accrue for each 24-hour period that an assessment item is submitted late. Therefore, an assessment item worth 20 marks will have 1 marks deducted for every 24-hour period and at the end of 20 days will receive 0 marks. Students who fail to submit following the guidelines in this Unit Information Guide will be deemed to have not submitted the assessment item and the above penalty will be applied until the specified submission guidelines are followed. Marks and Feedback All assessment materials submitted during the semester will normally be marked and returned within two weeks of the required date of submission (provided that the assessment materials have been submitted by the due date). Marks will be made available to each student via the MySCU Grade book.
