Assignment 2 Guidance

Task 1 - Provide a logical/physical design of


the networked system with clear explanation
and addressing table (P5)
To answer this section, you need to follow each of the steps below.
First of all, you need to explain the difference between logical and physical design.
You then discuss and explain the user requirements for general network design.
From here, you provide a logical design of the network based on the specific requirements
of the user.
Also, you provide a physical design of this network based on the specific requirements of
the user.
Finally, you provide the address table of the network devices used in your design above.

Task 2 - Evaluate the design to meet the


requirements (P6)
To answer this section, you need to follow each of the steps below.
First of all, you provide a test plan for the design above. Note, because the design has not
been implemented yet, so here you only give a test plan, without any specific results.
Next, you evaluate your network design by: 1) showing the pros and cons of design based
on user requirements; 2) For this design network to work effectively, can you have any
advice or solutions?

Task 2.1 - Install and configure network


services and applications on your choice (M3)
To answer this section, you need to follow each of the steps below.
First of all, you choose a few services and applications that you like best, such as DNS
service or FTP application.
You then install and configure these services step by step for them to work. Note, it is
advisable to provide screenshots for each of these steps for illustration.

Task 2.1.1 - Design a maintenance schedule
to support the networked system (D2)
Once the network is operational, situations may occur that may prevent it from working as
expected. Therefore, in order to deal with this, you need to have regular maintenance on
your network. To be able to do this, you need to design periodic network maintenance,
e.g., backup schedule, so that the network can continuously provide services to users.

Task 3 - Implement a networked system


based on a prepared design (P7)
To answer this section, you need to follow each of the steps below.
First of all, you need to show proof of the network implementation you designed above, for
example you can provide screenshots of this realization.
Next, you need to show a diagram of your overall network realization, which contains all of
the network devices active based on the original user requirements.

Task 4 - Document and analyse test results


against expected results (P8)
Based on the network realization diagram above, now you need to write down the above
implementation process into the logbook, so that later on when you need to expand the
network or have a network problem, you can easily handle it.
Next, you need to test this network system, based on the test plan done above. Note, you
must show the network test results, see if it meets the original requirements or not.

Task 4.1 - Recommend potential


enhancements for the networked systems
(M4)
To answer this section, you can follow each of the steps below.
First of all, you will need to nominate how to upgrade your network system after a long
period of use.
This network upgrade can be done in many ways, depending on actual requirements. For
example, you can expand the number of computers using the network by installing

2
additional wireless access point devices. Or you can install and configure additional
firewall equipment to enhance network security features.

Task 4.1.1 - Use critical reflection to evaluate


own work and justify valid conclusions (D3)
After performing all the steps above, now is the time to evaluate your entire work as an
overview as much critically as possible. In addition, you need to justify and come to
reasonable conclusions for it.
