13. CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
1.1Introduction to Internship
This internship project is conducted for partial fulfillment of the Bachelor of Science
in Computer Science and Information Technology (Bsc CSIT) degree awarded by Tribhuvan
University about the field, market exposure, and helps to identify the potential career
opportunities. Internship project is good for students to understand real world implication of
sound academic knowledge gained in college. The internship has given us the real world
exposure to the professional life and shown us the wider exploration of the career
opportunities in information technology.
This internship as per the requirement of the TU for the CSIT not only fulfills that
very requirement but has also developed me personally by getting myself acquainted with
how the ISP business environments run and to learn different aspects of working mechanism
that prevail in the organizations. During this internship period I was introduced to the
organizational structure, professional world. I was the trainee staff to organization as the field
and system support.
1.2 Background
Documentation is the essential part of the software development life cycle from the
software requirement life cycle, design document, test manual and user manual. All are
important in software development process, so that the rest of the team member or new
member or even the user does not have to depend on the programmer for the oral history of
the software. I fulfilled that responsibility as the technical writer. Apart from that during the
internship period, we are able to know different aspect of real world networking.
1.3Statement of the Problem and Objective
ISPs play a central role in the development of e-commerce and use of the Internet.
Presently, the majority of the people use an ISP to access the Internet. The main business of
an ISP is to provide its customer with connection to the Internet. So far as the customer is
concerned, he or she wants to be able to dial into ISP and get connected without getting
engaged tone. They also want a fast service and will not necessarily recognize that the speed
with which they can download information will be governed by their own connection and
equipment.
No one can control all of the interconnections between the various networks, and any
network failure may be outside the control of the ISP. An ISP needs to make sure that in its
1
14. terms and conditions it makes it clear that it does not give any guarantee that the service it
provides will be uninterrupted or error free. Where the services are being provided to
consumers free of charge or for only a relatively small fee, then such a clause will probably
suffice. When ISP is hosting commercial website and is being paid to do so, its customers
will often expect more comprehension guarantee in some form of service level agreement.
Typically this will be expressed as being the percentage of time which the server on
which the website is hosted will be available for access via Internet. When considering a
service level agreement, it is particularly important to bear in mind two things. First, that
allowance should be made for any planned downtime for maintenance of the server, which
should be excluded from the calculation of the time during which the server is unavailable.
Second, it is not possible for anyone to guarantee a 100% connection success rate. However,
depending on the period over which availability is to be calculated, the percentage will most
likely be in the range of 98%-99.9%. An effective service level agreement will usually
contain a provision for a rebate of part of the fees paid to the ISP and the right to terminate
the agreement if the service levels are not achieved. Another big issue for ISPs is that of
bandwidth. At the moment bandwidth is very expensive.
It is important that in its terms and conditions an ISP limits the amount of bandwidth
that its customers can use at any one time. Where an ISP is providing a free service, it will
want to be able to restrict the availability of bandwidth for any particular customer. Where a
customer is paying an ISP to host its website, it is essential that the ISP clearly sets out in its
agreement how much bandwidth will be available for that customer and reserves the right to
charge for any additional bandwidth which is used over and above that provided for in the
agreement.
Dealing with customers, most ISPs will have two distinct categories of customers,
namely consumer and business customers. In many respects, the issues, which arise in
relation to each category, are the same, although it should be borne in the mind that
consumers have additional layers of protection under English law, Scots law and European
law.
1.4 Methodology
1.4.1 Organizational Selection
The four-year degree of Bsc CSIT allows us to attain knowledge on various topics of
Information Technology. At the same time the internship is one of the major highlight of the
program to expose the students to the professional world. Among the various criteria and
sectors provided to us in internship pre-requisite statement, Networking was chosen. Various
organizations were shortlisted and approached out of which the organization with the best
2
15. lucrative offer and environment was selected. I selected Lumbini Net Pvt. Ltd as my intern
organization.
1.4.2 Placement
During the internship period, I was provided with workspace at the organization, not
only that I was treated as trainee staff with the access to very information of the organization,
its resources, information and equipment.
1.4.3 Duration
Starting Date: 15 – Apr - 2015
Ending week: 16 – jul - 2015
Total Duration: 90 Days
1.4.4 Activities
During the internship period I was assigned several jobs to do from field support to
system environment. My mentor assigned me the job. We know the ISP is client oriented
company provides Internet connection to the customers; the company is always of the
customer’s connection. It is possible that certain connection is broke down due to some
environmental factor so that the clients are facing problems in accessing Internet. Whenever
the clients call for Internet problems to the company I along with my respected senior field
staffs go to the client point to solve their problems.
Sometime the problem is due to mis-crimping of Internet cable or sometime is to
mis-configure connection and our job is to solve these problems. Often, the client visit the
company to setup new connection to their place, in that case also I along with my seniors go
to the client point to setup new connection. There we have to configure the client point, do
appropriate cabling, setting up new wireless device etc.
The basis of the relationship for doing business with a customer is contractual. It is
important that the customer is made aware of the provisions of the relevant terms and
conditions before the ISP begins providing its services. If no terms are agreed with a
customer, then it may be possible to imply certain terms to agreement. However, it is much
better for all concerned for there to be certainty as to terms upon which the services are to be
provided. A typical ISP will need to ensure it has clear terms and conditions for one or more
of the following services:
3
16. o Dial-up accounts for consumers (this will often be free service including the
provisions of email services).
o Dial-up accounts for businesses.
An ISP’s terms and conditions need to be clear, need to deal with all the
necessary issues and properly incorporated into any agreement that it enters into with its
customers. In addition to provisions dealing with bandwidth and availability, you will also
need to ensure that you have clear terms limiting your liability and also incorporating an
authorized use policy. The purpose of the authorized use policy is to ensure that, so far as
possible, all of the obligations to ensure that a site is lawful and complies with all necessary
regulations are placed on the owner of the site. The authorized use policy will set out the
basis upon which an ISP is willing to provide a service and will be used to protect the ISP
against liability for the third party material and for any loss of data. The authorized use policy
will impose certain obligations on users, for example, to ensure that they have obtained all
the necessary third party consents and licenses for the material which they include on their
website and to ensure that all the material on their site is lawful. With regard to the
difficulties which an ISP may face with regards to unlawful material an ISP may wish to
include terms relating to the email accounts and, in particular, what those accounts can be
used for and whether the ISP may remove emails stored on the server from time to time in
order to free up space on that server. As the world of the Internet is moving so quickly, it is
sensible for an ISP to include so that any such amendments are clearly bought to the attention
of the customer and are properly incorporated into the agreement with the ISP before taking
effect.
The major objective was to know about how networking is done in real world. We
study different subject materials throughout the entire course. Internship provides the
platform to implement those concepts in real scenario. Through internship period I knew
several networking issue. Sometime it is difficult to solve problems without having
experience in related fields.
Some of the objective of internship is as follows:
o Configuration of wireless devices as per the requirement.
o Setting up Internet connection.
o Troubleshooting Internet connection.
o Identifying the working principle of the Internet.
o Securing Internet connection.
o Blocking of unwanted incoming connection.
o Dividing the available bandwidth among customers.
o Setting up client to connect with the Internet.

17. CHAPTER 2: BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO INDUSTRY
The Internet Service Provider’s Association of Nepal (ISPAN) is a non-profit
organization committed to advocate and support a healthy Internet Industry in the country.
ISPAN believes an open, competitive marketplace for Internet access and services benefits
the Internet service industry and the people it serves.
2.1 Introduction
The ISPAN was set up in 1998 with a mission to develop and promote Internet for
everyone. ISPAN had originally started activities when ISPs like Mercantile, World link,
CCSL, HTP, ENET, came together with the purpose of making Internet affordable to local
communities and penetrate in the rural areas. ISPAN has been initiating continuous dialogues
with the Ministry of the Information and Communication, Nepal Telecommunication
Authority, Nepal Telecommunications. ISPAN has been fighting and exercising the right to
obtain timely and quality infrastructure and resources to enable High Quality Services to be
delivered by the Internet Service Licenses. ISPAN have since then been at the forefront of
bringing about changes in the Internet policy, through regular interaction with various
Government Departments, other Industry Associations and Media. ISPAN works closely with
NTC and various other organizations and it is our constant endeavor to take up and resolve
various issues that affect implementation of the ISP’s projects. Thus, ISPAN seeks
opportunities to encourage and promote the use of Internet and IT enabled services, such as
E-commerce, E-governance, Health Care and Distance Learning, etc. Additionally, ISPAN is
playing significant role in obtaining Tax exemption for any Internet related services and
subsidizing dial-in rates for Internet users. Internet Services and Network Service Providers
in Nepal have been paying 4% royalty and 2% RTDF on the gross revenue. Though the
government has pronounced IT Industry as priority service and sector, ISPs and NSPs are still
under the economic and financial pressure from Nepal Government. It would not be an
overstatement that it is primarily due to the efforts of ISPAN, that Internet penetration has
been successful in remote areas of Nepal.
Has there been good infrastructure of telephony system, we would have been
successful in providing at least email connectivity in each VDC of Nepal. ISPAN continues
its endeavor to take up various issues that affect the implementation of the ISP’s projects and
monitor the policies related to Internet Industry through interaction with the Government,
other Industry Associations and national/international bodies, etc. It is due to constant
interaction with international bodies and agencies; we have been successful to establish
Internet Exchange in Nepal. The exchange has connected all ISPs in Nepal thereby
facilitating users to have faster Internet access for locally hosted sites and locally available
services within Nepal. Moreover, the Exchange has reduced the high bandwidth utilization of
local ISPs thereby providing relief on the bandwidth payment structure, which has to be paid
to foreign companies in US dollars.

18. 2.2 Objectives
The Internet is certainly one of the major processes in Nepal today. In fact it is being
universally recognized that as the Internet proliferates, so will E-commerce and E-
Governance and E-Business and other E-services. It is, therefore, in our National interest to
boost the expansion of the Internet services in the country. This will not only help our country
to become a part of emerging global E-economy, but alsowill also enable to progressively and
proactively analyze and understand the issues and concerns of Internet Industry and address
them through sharing of information and discussion from various platforms available. Some
of the objectives we have targeted are:
Internet penetration in rural areas.
Generate employment opportunities through the use ICTs.
Provide the Internet platform for the growth of IT/IT enabled/software services as has
been stated in Telecom Policy 2061.
Turn around the losses of the ISP industry, and make the industry into a growth-
oriented profit making industry.
Promote, project and develop the interested of Internet services providers.
Proliferate convergence between voice and data to facilitate growth of Internet and it
enabled services for E-commerce, Health care and Distance Education.

4.1.3.2 Creating a Network Connection
A computer network, which is often termed as a network, is a group of computers
connected with each other to facilitate communication between the users and to allow share
resources with each other. The communication among computers can be facilitated after
configuring network. In as organizational set up, all the systems are connected with each
other by using either Local Area Network or Internet or Sometime both. The connectivity
among computers help user to share data, establish Remote Desktop Connections, provide
remote assistance.
In windows 7, network connections are created automatically; however, we can
create them manually. Manual creation of network connection is required when we want to
create different types of connections, such as broadband connections or dial-up connections.
We can create connections manually by using Control Panel.
We have to perform the following step to create a network connection:
o Click start Control Panel. The control panel window appears.
o Click the Network and Internet link into control panel windows, as shown in figure
below;

4.1.4 Creating the Wireless Connection
Install the router software
Not every router comes with software to install, but if yours did, then install it on a
computer that is connected to the router via an Ethernet cable. Using the bundled software
makes setting up a router much more convenient than going in to the configuration menus.
Using the software, designate the name of your wireless network, and the type of
security that you want to use. Choose WPA2 for the most secure network. Choose a
password and continue.
Most router software will automatically detect your Internet settings. This is the
information that the router needs to translate your Internet connection and transfer it
to all of your wirelessly connected devices.

33. Open the router’s configuration page
If your router did not come with any installation software, you will need to connect to
the router’s configuration page through your web browser. Open your browser of choice and
enter the web address for the router. This is typically 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1. Consult the
documentation that came with the router to find the exact address.
You will be asked for a username and password to continue into the router
configuration. These are also provided in the documentation that came with your
router. Typical defaults are username: admin and Password: password or admin. You
can search for your router model’s specific login information at portfoward.com.
Enter your Internet connection information
This includes the IP address and DNS information from your Internet service
provider. Most routers will fill this section in automatically. If it does not, contact your ISP
for the information that you need to enter.
Set your Wireless settings
Most routers will have a Wireless Settings section towards the top of the router’s menu. From
this section you can enable or disable the wireless signal, change the network name, and set
the encryption.
o To set the name of the network, select the SSID field. This is the name that will be
displayed on any device that detects your network. If you are living in an area with a
lot of public traffic, avoid putting any identifiable information in the SSID, as anyone
with a wireless device can see it.
o Make sure to set the encryption to the latest version allowed by your router. In most
cases, this will be WPA2. WPA2 operates with a single password. You can enter
whatever you’d like. Stronger password contains upper and lowercase letters,
numbers, and symbols.
o Make sure you click the Apply or Save Changes button in your router’s configuration
when you are done changing the settings. The router will process for a moment, and
your new settings will take effect.
o In order to get the best possible signal, try to place your router in a central location.
Keep in mind that any obstacles such as walls and doors will degrade the signal. If
you have multiple floors, you may want to consider multiple routers to ensure that
you have the coverage you need.

34. o Remember that it must be physically connected to your modem, so this may limit
your options when placing the router.
4.1.4.1Setting Up TP-Link Router
1. Plug the power cable to the router. You should see the Power LED at the front turn
green now.
2. Plug the network cable of ISP to the WAN port. Next, take the patch cable and plug
one end of it to the LAN port of the Router and other end to the Network Card of the
computer.
3 Next, open the Web Browser (Firefox, Internet Explorer etc.) and type the Default IP
address of the router (192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1) in the address bar.
4. It will ask for Router's default “Username” and “Password”. Please provide Username
as “admin” and Password as “admin”.
5. After providing username and password, Click on “OK” button.
6. Next, Router configuration page will be displayed.
7. Now, click on "Network" option from menu on left. Then choose "pppoe/russiapppoe"
from wan connection type. Then Type your username and password as provided byISP.
8. Select the "Wireless" option from menu on left. Type the desired name for wireless and
click save.
22
35. 9. Select the "Wireless Security" option from menu on left. Choose WPA/WPA2 –
personal (recommended). Type your desired password. Click Save.
4.1.4.2 Configuration of Devices
Steps and Procedures:
I. First of all, connect the device with cable (CAT-5/CAT-6) to the adopter that
helps in supply of power of Ethernet to the device and also the data flow/transfer,
and complete all the connections required appropriately.
II. After completion of first step, open the device by entering the default device IP
(192.168.1.20) in the browser.
III. Enter the default username and password of the device.
Username: ubnt
Password: ubnt
Now the device is ready to be configured. The steps after that are shown in below;
Typical scenario is to install a Network Extender device to provide wireless signal to Clients
that cannot be reached from AP #1 (poor signal level). We consider this simply network
topology:
1 Router connected to Internet and/or private LAN (IP Address: 192.168.1.254/24)
1 AirOS device AP #1 directly connected to Router (IP Address: 192.168.1.21/24)
1 AirOS device AP #2 connected via wireless to AP #1 (IP Address: 192.168.1.20/24)
1 or more Wireless Clients (Notebook, Wi-Fi-Phone, other Wireless devices...)
The Router assigns IP Address to network devices by DHCP Server. Alternatively, if
you prefer, you can set static IP Address to Clients.
In this schema, AP #2 is a Wireless Repeater device.

40. CHAPTER 5: SYSTEM TESTING
5.1 PING
PING IS AN OLD UNIX tool that has been around for a long time but many PC users are
unfamiliar with the Windows version. Ping sends out a packet to designated internet host or
network computer and measures its response time. The target computer will return
(hopefully) a signal. It is a way of determining the quality of your connection to another site.
You will also receive an IP address that corresponds to the user friendly type of URL. To use
ping, open a command window and type: ping<hostname>.
5.2 Tracert
Tracert (traceroute) is another old tool borrowed form UNIX. The actual path between two
computers on the Internet is not a straight line but consists of numerous segments or “hops”
from one intermediate computer to another. Tracert shows each step of the path taken. It can
be interesting to see just how convoluted it is. The times for each hop and the IP addresses for
each intermediate computer are displayed. Tracert shows up to 30 hops. It is convenient for
finding if there is one particular segment that is causing slow or bad connection.
5.3 Netstat
Netstat displays the active TCP connections and ports on which the computer is listening,
Ethernet statistics, the IP routing for the IP, ICMP, TCP and UDP protocols. It comes with a
number of switches for displaying a variety of properties of the network and TCP
connections. One possible use foe Netstat is to determine if spyware or Trojans have
established connections that you do not know about. The command “netstat –a” will display
all your connections. The command “netstat –b” will show the executable files involved in
creating a connections.
5.4 Nslookup
This command helps diagnose the Domain Name (DNS) infrastructure and comes with a
number of sub-commands. These are mainly for systems administrators. The primary interest
for average PC users is its use to find the computer name corresponding to a numeric IP.
5.5 System Monitoring
Multi Router Traffic Graphs (MRTG) is a tool that was created by Tobias Oetiker. The
original purpose of this tool was to provide a convenient method to gather statistics from
routers via SNMP and present them in an easy to understand graphical format through a
webserver.
28
41. The minimum information that should be monitored on most servers is disk space usage,
memory utilization, CPU utilization and network utilization. There are many more useful
statistics that might apply to a specific server or environment, but from an operational
perspective, these minimum details are going to be useful for day to day utilization and help
establish a baseline to understand the normal operating parameters of the systems we are
responsible for managing and to provide early warning indicators for when a system is going
to exceed its hardware capacity.

42. CHAPTER 6: CONCLUSION
6.1 Problem Faced
Concluding I must agree I was bound to face some problems and difficulties during the
internship program. The general problems I faced during the given period are listed below:
Being new to the organization it was difficult for me to understand the organization’s
work procedures and structures.
Difficulty in understanding the requirements.
Difficulty in understanding and giving support to clients.
Outdoor service i.e. services given to the customer was sometimes conflicting due to
misunderstanding of problems cause.
6.2 Lesson Learnt
In short period I couldn’t learn all things about networking. During my time of internship
period I got the unique opportunity to:
Configure and install all the airOS (LOCO) devices, different routers, and UBNT
devices.
Create a new wireless connection.
Develop personal relation with clients.
Gain knowledge of crimping of CAT-5, CAT-6 in standard format and many others.
This is the period where I got the unique opportunity to doze myself with professional
capabilities. I learnt how things go in real life and what are my weakness and strengths.
As of me, the internship period, was the period of enhancing the knowledge. It had let me
understand the organizational environment and the real time work.
6.3 Conclusion
After doing internship, I know several things related to networking. This knowledge helps me
to work in any networking organization. It gives me an experience in the area of networking.
Many courses that we have studied throughout the semester are implemented in this case
either directly or indirectly. Internship gives us a platform to implement our knowledge in
real scenario. It is very beneficial to me in the sense that I can configure several networking
things such as configuration of small networks. Configuration of routers, can do appropriate
cabling and troubleshooting internet connection.
