I. INTRODUCTION
After getting approval from CEO Thuan, in this exercise, I will introduce the bearing system I designed, the
advantages and disadvantages of the design. System test plan and test results.
Recommendations for future network upgrades.
II. BODY
P5 Provide a logical/physical design of the networked system with clear explanation and addressing
table
The difference between logical and physical design
A physical design network focuses on physical devices and the cabling between them is the mapping of the
network topology. The topology diagram in the physical network must show elements such as workstations,
servers, routers... where the cable connection will be the boundary between them
A Logical Network Design is concentrated on the way to layout your plant and enterprise and
where you'd locate key distribution points for the network also as what sorts of devices and
switches you ought to use to interconnect the plant. It also can include the way to do IP
addresses, VLANs, and switch configurations.
The main difference between logical design and physical design is that logical design helps to
define data elements and their relationships including IP structures of the database. network like
a Class A, B, or C addressing scheme, but physical design helps to design specific databases
including Fiber, ISDN, and Ethernet that support the needs that are gathered in the process
User requirements for general network design
When starting to build a network, the first thing is to calculate the necessary network devices in the network.
These devices need to properly reflect user requirements and optimize costs. When designing a network
system, users often have the following requirements
Cost
Depending on the funding that the user requires, the network devices in the
system need to fully meet the user's needs and be able to expand the system. Network
designers also need to have actual surveys to determine the density of network devices
in the system.
Security
Security is always an extremely important issue in any network. To protect the
underlying network infrastructure against unauthorized access, theft, or destruction of data,
it is necessary to maintain monitoring of all systems and networks. Analyze activity logs for
anomalies. In addition, building an anti- malware system in the organization's network is
also an important thing in security.
Management capabilities
The network system can only be operated effectively if it is well managed. The
management ability should ensure the following contents:
o Fault Management: The ability to detect errors occurring on the network
o Configuration Management: the ability to manage the configuration of the
device. This management capability includes configuration file management,
device statistics, and software management as well as configuration
changes.
o Administration capability: the ability to manage, test, and control the overall
system from an intermediary perspective.
o Performance Management: Ability to collect information from the device,
transmission line, display the device's usage status
o Security Management: Ability to manage, set up, and monitor anomalies in the network

P6 Evaluate the design to meet the requirements
Test Plan
In the first layer, devices can ping each other and devices of other layers
2rd and 3rd floors include student computer room and wireless router Devices can
ping each other and other floors
Evaluate your network design
The network structure of each layer is star topology because it is quite simple with the
stability of technical control, the network can be narrowed or expanded depending on the
purpose of use. Or moreover, with this model, the system works according to the original
connection song, if there is a device at the information node that is faulty, the network will
still work normally. The model has the fastest speed, when there is a network failure to
check and repair.
Disadvantages:
• Internet connection speed will depend on service provider, there is no backup measure in case of
problems from service Provider.
• It is very easy to have a network bandwidth shortage if all rooms are operating at full capacity a
Some of the solutions:
• Adding more switches can also reduce congestion and free up bandwidth for other things.
• Add support servers to use and search.
• Upgrading the security system
Install and configure network services and applications
I decided to use the DHCP protocol because DHCP will help to quickly, automatically
and centrally manage the distribution of IP addresses within a network.
Advantages of DHCP:
DHCP has a function that allows automatic configuration
Network connection speed of devices is faster
Scientific IP address management, avoiding IP duplication and more stable network operation
IP addresses, TCP/IP parameters are easily managed through stations
P7 Implement a networked system based on a prepared design
Router Configuration
Step 1: Erase and Reload the Routers
Step 2: Enter privileged EXEC mode and global configuration mode
Step 3: Set Hostname and disable DNS lookup
Step 4: Configure the EXEC mode password and a message-of-the-day banner
Step 5: Configure the console password on the router
Step 6: Configure the password for the virtual terminal lines
Step 7: Configure the Fast Ethernet interface and Serial
Step 8: Enable OSPF
Step 9 -> Step 16: Configure DHCP
P8 Document and analyse test results against expected results.
