Questions On Network Setup

Quick Learn University is setting up its academic network connecting 3 blocks and 1 center. The HR center would be the best place to install the server due to its central location and most computers. A wired star topology connecting each building directly to the HR center would be an ideal layout. Switches should be installed in each building to connect all local computers. The connection to the admission office over 250km away would be a WAN since it connects locations far outside the local area.
