Thinking Outside the Box Assignment Number 1

0Your company has a number of interconnected local area networks within a single building.

Also in the building is a router that connects the LANs to an Internet service provider using a

couple of T-1telephone lines. Your company is considering replacing the T-1s with a

connection to a metropolitan area network. Show the interconnection of the LANs, the MAN,

and the Internet, assuming the MAN is SONET based. Would the interconnection be

Assignment Week 3

1. Complete the hands on project number 4 on page 337 of your textbook by researching the four technologies listed in the project.

2. Write a minimum two page paper in current APA format that discusses:

a. How each of these technologies are used in DSL communications

b. A comparison of all four to provide the major capabilities, shortfalls, and weaknesses of each

Hands On Project Number 4

To find out more technical details about DSL, investigate the different modulation

techniques that are used to transmit DSL signals. Although these techniques are quite

complex, they are an interesting study in the technological advances necessary to provide

high-speed data streams over ordinary copper twisted pair wire. Using either the Internet or

hard copy sources (which, by necessity, must be fairly current), look up the following four

technologies. All four are being used somewhere on DSL circuits:

• Discrete multitone technology (DMT)

• Carrier less amplitude phase (CAP) modulation

• Multiple virtual line (MVL)

• Echo cancellation

Assignment Week 4

1. Complete the “Thinking Outside the Box” assignment number 2 on page 371 of your textbook by researching what is needed to develop a sound network security policy.

2. Write a minimum one page paper in current APA format that charts all of the employee and department details listed in the project.

3. Write a minimum three page paper in current APA format that provides a security policy for each department that includes any restrictions, resource usage, or reporting requirements that would be necessary to keep the network secure.

Thinking Outside the Box Assignment Number 2

Create a hypothetical business with approximately 50 to 100 employees. Place the employees

in two or three different departments. Assign to each department a title and basic job duties.

All employees in all departments use personal computers for numerous activities. Identify

for the employees of each department. Be sure to address when and where the employees

have access to computer resources, and if any types of transactions should be restricted.

Assignment Week 5

1. Complete the “Thinking Outside the Box” assignment number 2 on page 399 of your textbook, and use the Internet to research the capabilities of three different web server technologies.

2. Write a minimum two page paper in current APA format that provides:

a. A comparison of the different capabilities of each selected web server

b. The maximum number of connections each can support

c. The amount of network bandwidth needed to fulfill the project requirements

Thinking Outside the Box Assignment Number 2

Your company wants to create a Web server to promote its business. One of the features of

the Web server is that it allows remote users to download service bulletins and repair

manuals. These bulletins and repair manuals are approximately 240,000 bytes in size. You

anticipate that approximately 30 users per hour will want to download these documents.
