SWG Networking & Engineering

Introduction

    This project is the result of four semester intensive program in the Cisco Networking Academy at York Technical College. In a timely and monitored atmosphere, we have experienced the overall tools of networking. The Sunnyslope School District is in the process of implementing an enterprise wide network which will include Local Area Network (LAN)  at each site and a Wide Area Network (WAN) to provide data connectivity between all school sites . Access to the "Internet" from any site in the school district is also integral part of the implementation.

Since this network implementation will have to continue to be functional for a minimum of 7-10 years all design considerations should include 1000% growth in  the LAN's and 100% growth in the WAN. The minimum requirement for initial implementation design will be 1.0 Mega Bits per second to any host computer in the network and 100 Mega Bits per second to any server host in the network.

Only two OSI layer 3&4 protocols will be allowed to be implemented in this network, they are TCP/IP and Novel's IPX. Cindi Williams, Steve Sarn, and Gallo Fall are the team who are designing and implementing the Sunnyslope School District Network.
