Answer only 04 questions (Question no. 01 is COMPULSORY).
Question 01
One of a leading software development company wants to establish a new computer
network for their office. This company is located in a multistoried building. Managing Director (MD) with his staff located in 4th floor and five programmers located in 5th floor.
By considering the following requirements, you should propose a computer network
with minimum resources and the future expansions.
Requirements
a) All the laptops should connect network through Wi-Fi
b) All the Desktop computers, network printers and servers should have wired connection. c) Should provide internet facility to all staff through ADSL line. d) Currently MD’s office uses two laptop computers, two Desktop computers and one network printer. e) In future, MD wants to recruits two Directors and gives them two laptops. f) Currently Programmers’ office use one laptop, 4 desktops, one server and network printer. g) In future, MD wants to recruit three programmers with three desktops and one project manager with a laptop computer for Programmers’ office. h) All the staff in MD’s office wants to access server through LAN. i) Static IPs which are connected to the network used for all devises.
