Client’s Requirements

The school required the conversion of an existing classroom into an ICT classroom. The school required the successful tenderer to provide a complete project management solution which was to include the delivery of the ICT Network, data cabling, electrics, furniture, security and audio visual facilities.

Detailed school structure:
1. Each ICT classroom can accommodate 24 students and one instructor, total of 25 people.
2. Design 5 ICT classroom with 25 PCs, one whiteboard, one projector / Display monitor in the center of a wall.
3. Phone are located in each ICT room to communicate to service desk.
4. Two campuses are located in different cities.

Write a report on a network plan and configurations.
1. Draw a complete network design for an above scenario. (Include block diagram for each ICT room)
2. Detailed setup of one ICT room.
3. Write configurations of each networking device which are included in the whole network including WAN.
4. Configure switches, routers and PCs on physical networking devices and demonstrate the working model.

Demonstration: Students can demonstrate in a group of 2. Students should be ready with all setup and configurations before start of the laboratory class. Tutor will ask 2-3 questions to each student to demonstrate any configuration of the setup. Demonstration from each student should not be more than 3 minutes.

Students should give their group members to tutor in week 10 during lab class. Students will get demonstration timetable before start of the week 11 lab class.
