The organization’s head  office is located in the Sydney CBD. The head office consists of three departments: IT support,  purchasing, and sales. The IT support is located on the first floor, while the marketing and the  sales departments are located on second and third floors of the building respectively. IT  support has 30 workstations, purchasing has 15 workstations, and sales has 50 workstations.  Some applications require that data be shared between departments, but generally, each  department has its own applications. Every workstation needs access to the Internet, Intranet  and e-mail system. The head office also requires wireless internet connectivity for all the  floors. Suppose you are the network engineer for this organization and your IT manger asked  you to design the network for head office.     The organization is also planning to establish three additional offices in the future namely  Queensland, Melbourne and Canberra. Your task to prepare a networking solution that  enables employees in all three offices to communicate both internally in that office and, to a  lesser extent, between the other offices and head office. According to the specifications  provided, the most user resource requirements will be met by servers located in the same  office as the users who need to access them. The main communication requirements between  offices relate to e-mail and periodic file transfers.   You are required to design this network both as a wired and wireless (wherever required).     This assignment has two tasks:    Task A: Write a report with following sections:  1. Introduction  2. The LAN network design of the head office  i. Discuss the locations of all workstations and interconnecting devices, such as  switches and routers, if any to be used  ii. Discuss and justify the recommended media type  iii. Discuss the type of LAN topology and protocol to be used  iv. Identify and discuss the connection that provides the Internet access to the  LAN  v. The sketch of network plan for each floor (using some software such as MS  Visio)  3. The WAN network design between all five offices and the head office  i. The sketch of the WAN connectivity (using some software such as MS Visio)  ii. Discuss the devices to be used such as routers (if any) and their functioning  iii. justify the recommended media type  iv. Discuss the type of network structure suitable in this scenario (circuit switched  or packet switched structure)  v. Discuss the recommended routing protocol in this scenario (RIP or OSPF)  4. A summary section  5.

INTRODUCTION
This is the era of computer and its connected networks. Every organization has lots of departments with their individual computer and their connected network. They all need to communicate with each other; this is only possible by using different networking.                                                
A computer network is connected to two or more than two computer networks that are interconnected with each other and helps in sharing data in different forms. Personal computers in the organization need to share the information like printers, data and more, they resolved that problem by introducing LANs, which allows computer network to connect with each other. LANs, network will work for the same building or same campus, but when they need to provide information outside the organization or wide range, then they introduce WANs, it will share the data in cities or states.
Computer networks are of two type one is software and other is hardware. Hardware are physical connected machines and software are used to make hardware more convenient. These networks are used in Business applications, home applications, by mobile users or in social issues.
The LAN network design of the head office 
LAN
A Local Area Network or LAN, a computer network which works in a small organization or small areas. LANs, network builds specially for a particular room, building or their groups. We can it a small network for school, colleges, offices, buildings like structure. LAN is composed of interconnected workstations and personal computers, which all are capable of accessing and sharing data between networks and different devices. On LAN all the devices are connected in single cable and the data rate of LAN ranges from 4 to 16 Mbps with a maximum 100 Mbps. You can also say that a LAN is just too hardware and software which allows you to connect the device in a single network. 
There are few organizations which can run without using computers, but when you have plenty of computers in an organization you need to network them. These computers can be connected using LANs, network, a local area network which builds a shared working environment of computers.
Workstation of LAN
The main purpose of designing the LANs, the network is connecting all the devices in one place or at least sharing resources, so that all the users can share the same network for sharing information with each other. This is done by using individual computers or workstation that are connected to make LANs network.
