Introduction
Bright Education, a Melbourne based Higher Education provider, is setting up a new campus in Sydney and requires p
lanning for installation and implementation of new Network in their 3-floor building office.
Various departments are laid out in this three-floors building with a server room/data center in the basement of the building. Every floor has a wiring cabinet that contains network switches that connect various PCs via Cat-6 cabling and these switches are connected to the basement server room via Fiber back-bone cabling.
All the servers are installed in the basement server room and a small IT team manages these servers and the office’s IT requirements from their basement office.
Although the company has most of its employees working from their office only, a few Sales team personnel need to remotely connect to the internal network and hence we will need to implement VPN system to allow remote working for these employees.
Bright Education also needs the implementation of WiFi in their office building at each floor such that entire floors have sufficient coverage. The WiFi will be used by both the internal staff as well as any guest user having a password.

Topic 2: Desktop and Server Operating System
Desktop Operating Systems:
The most commonly used Desktop operating systems presently being used are Microsoft Windows 10 and Apple’s Mac OS X. Other lesser used operating systems for desktop and laptops are some variants of Linux kernels specially Ubuntu.
Microsoft’s Windows and Apple’s MacOS operating systems are generally available as a default installation in most currently available PCs and laptops in the market and thus are more widely used. They are also much easier to use as compared to various Linux OS. The hardware compatibility is also very good with Windows and MacOS and due to all these benefits both these OS are very popular among users and require very minimum training. Both these OS also provide a host of built-in or compatible utility software like word processers, presentation maker and spreadsheets software that are also very easy to use and most people are already familiar with these software. The primary contention between Windows and MacOS is that MacOS is mostly compatible with Apple PCs only and thus need to be purchased with the hardware. Where as in case of Windows, it can be installed on almost any PC/laptop and thus is a very good choice for general users and companies.
The primary disadvantage of both MacOS and Windows is the licensing cost of the OS. Each PC needs a separate OS and for that matter a separate OS license. This significantly increases the capacity expenses of any enterprise and is the primary reason for some organizations to choose Linux OS, since they are free.
