1. AAP Part I Deliverable:
Here is the assignment to be completed in your group. The tasks
are organized in no particular order.
High-level drawing of proposed upgrades
Drawing of existing network
WAN links bandwidth for the network
Inventory and IP scheme
Scope of work or design requirements
The first task in a network design or an upgrading of the networ
k is defining the scope of work. This
scope of work is outlined in the client’s Request for Proposal. T
his is your base line for developing the
scope of work. Here you will start gathering information about t
he client’s business goals and technical
requirements. To identify the business goals, interview upper m
anagement, focusing on technical
requirements. The IT department can then provide you with the
specifications. In the real world, this step
is necessary to validate the information provided by the client’s
RFP. In this assignment, however, this
part of the scope of work is optional. Either you can role play a
nd interview each other to come up with
the information or you can skip it. If you skip it, your scope of
work is the client’s RFP
Example: Identifying the scope of work:
The scope of this project consists of major modifications to the
existing network, along with the
implementation of many new network devices and protocols. Th

2. e main intent of this redesign is to: improve
network availability, network reliability, and network security;
create a centralized network backbone;
implement the use of wireless access, and migrate from a PBX t
elephony system to an IP based telephony
solution.
The proposed design will affect all areas of the current network.
Implementing a centralized backbone and
upgrading the speed of current links (from 10Mbs to 100Mbs) w
ill greatly improve the entire network. The
implementation of a new IP schema, the introduction of VLAN’
s, and implementation of new routing
protocols and security protocols will improve the network layer.
Just as the implementation of wireless,
redundant switches, along with the design of a network edge are
a will improve the data link layer of the
network.
Ultimately, the redesign of the network needs to meet the custo
mer’s intent for the redesign. During the
implementation phase of the redesign, the entire network will be
affected in some way – that is, some
improvements will have an immediate impact, while other impro
vements are going to take more time to
implement and may cause some network disruption for a short ti
me. However upon the conclusion of the
design implementation, the customer will have a greatly improv
ed network, which will fulfill their company’s
IT needs, at present, and for many years to come.
The second task is to prepare the existing drawings, if not provi
ded by the client.
The third task is to prepare an inventory list. This can be done b
y using software or physically verifying

3. the existing equipment. Your inventory list should include curre
ntly operable equipment and new
equipment (You can use the inventory template, found in the co
urse module for guidelines). In the
absence of any site visit, you can also assume that you will disc
ard all current network devices.
The fourth task is preparing the proposal for a highly detailed u
pgrade drawing. This drawing should
include all key components of your network, such as: connectin
g devices, security devices, wireless
devices, VLANs, and subnets of the network)
The fifth task is preparing the IP scheme of your network
The sixth, and final, task is to calculate WAN links bandwidth f
or your voice network.
You will be graded on your participation in your group, accordi
ng to the degree and accuracy of your
contribution and based on the rubrics assigned and posted for th
is project.
Background Information for the Campus Network Design
Project
XUMUC is a large online university in the Eastern United
States. The university has an enrollment of 90,000 students,
mostly online. The students do not live on campus and are
scattered around the globe. XUMUC offers courses in the fields
of arts and humanities, business, social sciences, mathematics,
computer science, the physical sciences, and health sciences.

4. Many of the professors are working professionals with jobs in
the business community, and only 5% of the 3,000 faculty have
offices on the main campus. Due to the opening of new online
universities in the DC metropolitan area, the university has had
a difficult time attracting new students. The college wishes to
attract and retain more students, many of whom leave the state
to attend more prestigious colleges. Because of these reasons
and others, the State advisory board expanded the Shady Grove
campus of XUMUC. Nine states colleges open their branches at
Shady Grove location. XUMUC’s management board now
wishes to consolidate management functions at its Shady Grove
location.
The president of XUMUC formed an Advisory Group whose
mission was to consolidate IT functions and implement a state
of the art network to attract prospective students. The
Advisory Group was also to determine why prospective students
do not select XUMUC. The group determined that many
prospective students do not select XUMUC because they
perceive the computer facilities at XUMUC to be inadequate. In
addition to the computer applications used by the students and
professors, the college administrative personnel use the College
Management System, which is a Novell NetWare client/server
application that keeps track of class registrations and student
records.
The Current Network at Shady Grove Campus:
The Shady Grove campus hosts 9 independent universities,
working independently. The campus has three main buildings
and fiber optic cable is used for backbone connections. The
campus diagram is shown below.

Each building is connected by fiber optic cable. Because most
of the students that attend XUMUC do so on a part-time basis,
and because many of the faculty members have other jobs, the
assumption in the past has been that many of the students and
professors use computing resources at home or at work and do
not depend on the XUMUC network. The current network is
shown in Figure -1.

Current Network Topology ShadyGrove
All the LANs at this site use 10-Mbps Ethernet although they
can be upgraded to 100 Mbps. Every building is equipped with
Category-5 cabling and wall plates in the various offices,
classrooms, and labs, though the cabling and wall-plates are not
used in some of the buildings. To support users in Building-3,
multi-mode fiber-optic cabling was pulled through cabling
conduits to Building-1 and Building-2. At the Shady Grove
campus, XMUC uses the services of 4 ISPs for internet
connections.
The college provides 10 Macintoshes and 25 PCs in the
Computing Center (in Building-1) for student use. A LAN
switch in the Computing Center connects hubs, servers, printers,
and the router that connects to the Internet. Shady Grove
campus does not have its own web server. For security, packet
filtering firewall is used on some routers. The routers have
default routes to the Internet and do not run routing protocols.
Based on the advice of the Community Advisory Group, the
president started the “Upgrade XUMUC Project” with the goal
of upgrading the computer and networking facilities. The three
network administrators and the Director of Operations for
XUMUC formed the Project Task Force.

Voice Network:
Shady Grove campus has 200 telephones on a separate voice
network. IP telephony is used for internal purposes. PSTN (the
Phone Company) is used to dial out. The logical diagram is
shown below.

Security:
The site recently experienced an increase in network attacks
(DoS). The network was recently unavailable for a considerable
time because of an attack. IT staff suspect that these attacks are
coming from a broad range of spoofed IP addresses, but are
unable to prevent these attacks. They have suggested installing

9. a NID so that they can monitor the network more closely and
stop an attack while it is happening. Network availability is
crucial for the university because their revenue depends on
availability of network.
Web server:
The director of the site wants to host a web site to increase
revenue and share resources among all the universities located
at this location. His main concern is that a hacker can access the
internal network through a compromised web server.
RFP
The state government has funded this project on actual cost
basis to upgrade XUMUC’s computer labs and campus network.
Even though the project is funded on actual cost basis, the
challenge with the network design is that the school’s budget
does not call for more money to be spent on network
administration as needed, so the new design has to be
manageable and simple.The project task force issued the
following RFP to upgrade the network.
Business and Technical Goals
The University Advisory Group identified the following
business goals for the Project:
· Increase the enrollment from to 400 to 500 students by the
year 2011
· Reduce the attrition rate from 30 to 15 percent by the year
2011
· Attract students who leave the state to attend colleges with
more technological advantages
· Provide more and bigger computer labs on campus

10. · Allow students to attach their notebook computers to the
campus network to reach campus and Internet services
· Reduce telephone costs
· Provide faster services
· Maintain (or reduce, if possible) the level of funding spent on
network operations
The Project Task Force added the following technical goals:
· Centralize all services and servers to make the network easier
to manage and more cost-effective. (Distributed servers will be
tolerated but not managed, and traffic to and from these servers
will not be accounted for when planning capacity)
· Centralize the Internet connection and disallow distributed
departmental Internet connections
· Increase the bandwidth of the Internet connection to support
new applications and expanded use of current applications
· Standardize on TCP/IP protocols for the campus network.
Macintoshes will be tolerated but must use TCP/IP protocols or
the Apple Talk Filling Protocol (AFP) running on top of TCP
· Provide extra capacity at switches so users can attach their
notebook PCs to the network
· Install DHCP software to support notebook PCs
· Provide security to protect critical servers from intruders on
the Internet and internal network. Implement a technology to
stop DoS attack

11. · Provide a network that can scale to support future expanded
usage of multi-media applications
· Use VPN technology to securely connect the Shady Grove site
to the main campus of XUMUC at Adelphi. Assume 2MB
bandwidth available for data network to connect to remote sites
· Provide a network that uses state-of-the art technologies
· Provide wireless network access to network users and guest
users from any point in the buildings. In conference rooms,
users will get a minimum 284 kbps worth of bandwidth. Other
areas, such as the lobby or cafeteria, a minimum bandwidth of
512 kbps bandwidth is required. (You can assume that a site
survey is done and no sources of interference or RF discovered.)
· Provide provisions for video conference and multicast
services.
The network administrators on the Project Task Force have been
criticized in the past by the students and professors, and are
looking forward to proving that they can develop a better
network than the existing network. Getting support for this
Project from the users and professors is not easy, and the
administrators now need to deliver a network that performs well
and has little downtime.
Network applications:
The XUMUC network is currently used for the following
purposes:
· Writing papers and doing other homework, including printing
the homework and saving the work on file servers
· Sending and receiving e-mail
· Surfing the Web using Netscape or Microsoft’s Internet
Explorer applications to access information, participate in chat

12. rooms, play games, and use other typical Web services
· Accessing the library catalog
· Accessing WebTycho, where the online classes are located.
Students and professors in the School also use the following
applications:
· Weather modeling. Meteorology students and professors are
participating in a project to model weather patterns in
conjunction with other colleges and universities in the state.
· Telescope monitoring. Astronomy students and professors
have set up a PC to continually download graphical images from
a telescope located at the state university.
Two new applications are planned:
· Graphics upload. The Art Department wishes to upload large
graphics files to an off-campus print shop that can print large
scale images on a high speed laser printer. The print shop prints
artwork that is file transferred to the shop via the Internet.
· Distance learning. The Computer Science department wishes
to participate in a pilot distance-learning project with the state
university. The state university will let WVCC students sign up
to receive streaming video of a computer science lecture course
that is offered at the state university. The students can also
participate in a real-time “chat room” while attending the class.
As a consultant to the school you are required to:
1. Propose a campus upgrade design that solves the current
problems and meets business and technical goals

13. 2. Create a scalable network
3. Develop a campus upgrade design based on an Enterprise
Campus module. This module should compose of a Campus
Core layer, a Building distribution layer, and a Building access
layer.
4. Provide redundancy at the campus core layer and the building
distribution layer to avoid failure at one point. For the Building
Access layer provide a redundant uplinks connection to the
Building Distribution layer.
5. Select appropriate Cisco switch models for each part of your
enterprise campus model design from the Cisco Products Link,
listed below, and use the following assumptions in your
selection process.
Selecting the Access layers switches:
a. Provide one port to each device
b. Make provision for 100% growth
Server farm switches:
· Assume 6 NIC cards in each server and one NIC card uses one
port of switch
· Dual processors and dual power supply
http://www.ciscowebtools.com/ProductAdvisor/child/1.0/switch
es.asp
6. Propose an IP addressing redesign that optimizes IP
addressing and IP routing (including the use of route
summarization). Provide migration provision to IPv6 protocol in
future.
7. Propose a security plan to secure key applications and
servers. Note that encryption of all application is not

14. acceptable. Firewalls can be used as necessary. Develop
security policy to stop sniffing and man-in-the-middle attack.
Your security plan must be based on current industry standard
Multilayer security or defense-in-depth.
8. Integrate voice and data networking to reduce cost. Propose
and develop a plan for migration to voice network with in
XUMUC sites as shown below. For dialing out from XUMUC,
propose a plan for 100% connectivity with the minimum number
of outside lines.
9. Create a wireless network for students, faculty, and staff.
Building 2 and Building 3 have two conference rooms with
seating capacity of 200 each and sized approximately 40 feet by
60 feet. Building 3 has a cafeteria with an approximate size of
60x60 square feet and a survey report indicated that at no time
do more than 20 guests use network services. Your task is to
determine number of WLC and AP placements, including how
many of them to use and which model to use. For your ready
reference, the Cisco equipment guide is attached. In the
Reference Section, you will find a placement template and
product ordering table for your guidance in selecting equipment.

XUMUC – Network RFP
Summary
Group Two is a group of students at UMUC that provides
network design and implementation plans for educational
institutions. Each individual in this group has their own unique
background and experience that will qualify us for your network
upgrade proposal request.
Our services rendered include:
· IT Management
· Network Design, Product Sales, Implementation and Support
· Equipment Implementation and Support
· VoIP Design, Sales, Implementation and Support
Proposal Overview
Our proposal is in response to XUMUC request for network
design overhaul of the Shady Grove campus and its related
buildings. Our services are in support of your eligible network
layout, network components, VoIP system and installation
services.
With this proposal, it will affect all your areas of the current
network. We will start by designing a centralized and secured
core location in Building-3. All subsequent buildings will have
redundant uplinks to Building-3 with server farm access, web
server access, VoIP services, WiFi services, and ultimately

28. internet access through this centralized location. With this
centralized approach, we will implement multiple VLANs for
network segmentation of traffic and utilize OSPF routing
protocol within the environment. Each building will have
redundant distribution layer’s connecting to the core site, as
well as redundant uplinks to access switches to the distribution
layer. Our network proposal includes bandwidth capabilities for
WiFi, Video Conferencing, and multiple data intense
applications utilized by Meteorology, Astronomy, Art
Department and Computer Science.

31. AAP Part II Submittal
For this section you will write a paper in the form of a response
to the RFP which includes:
Executive Summary
Business goals for the project
Scope of the project
Information on existing network
Information on new applications
Technical requirements, including scalability, availability, netw
ork performance, security,
manageability, usability, adaptability, and affordability
Design solutions
Logical Diagram
Warranty requirements for products
Environmental or architectural constraints
Training and support requirements
Preliminary schedule with milestones and deliverables
Legal contractual terms and conditions
Estimated Cost
IP address Scheme
Your paper should include responses to all of the customer’s req
uest and should include logical and
physical component of the design, information on technologies
used in the design solution, and a
proposal for implementing the design. The following sections de
scribe the format of the paper:
A: Executive Summary (ES)
The executive summary briefly states and emphasizes the major
points of the customer’s requirements.
The ES should be no more than one page and should be directed
at a key decision maker of the project

32. who will decide whether to accept your design. The ES can cont
ain general technical information but NO
technical details. The technical information should be summariz
ed and organized in the order of the
customer’s highest-priority objectives for the design project. Th
e ES should be organized according to
the customer top requirements.
B: Project Goal
This section should state the primary goal for the network desig
n. The goal should be business oriented
and related to an overall objective that the company has identifi
ed in order to become more successful in
the core business. Your objective is to make it clear to the decis
ion maker that you understand the
primary purpose and importance of the network design project.
Below is an example of a project goal
that was written for an actual design.
“The goal of this project is to develop a wide area network (WA
N) that will support new high bandwidth
and low-delay multimedia applications. The new applications ar
e key to the successful implementation of
new training programs for the sales force. The new WAN will fa
cilitate an increase in sales in the USA
by 50% in the next fiscal year.”
C: Project Scope
The project scope section provides information on the extent of
the project, including a summary of
departments, and field office networks that will be affected by t
he project. The project scope section

33. specifies whether the project is a new network or modifications
to an existing network. It indicates
whether the design is for a single network segment, a set of LA
Ns, a building or campus network, or a set
of WAN or remote access network, VoIP, or for enhancing secur
ity. (Note: Here you can use your
group’s scope of work as it is or change it the way you want it t
o be).
D: Design Requirements
In this section, you provide major business and technical requir
ements of the network in priority order. In
the business goal, explain the role that the network design will
play in helping a company provide better
products and services.
In the technical requirement section, explain in general terms ho
w the proposed technical improvement is
better than or meets the customer’s requirement.
Network Application: This section lists and characterizes new a
nd existing network applications.
E: Current State of the Network:
This section briefly describes the structure and performance of t
he network. It should include a high-level
network map that identifies the locations of connecting devices,
server farm, storage systems, and
network segment
F: Design

34. Solution
This section includes:
Logical Network topology which includes one or more drawings
to illustrate logical architecture of
the proposed network
A plan of addressing network segments and devices
A plan of naming network devices which include routers, workst
ations, servers, and the network
segment.
A list of routing and switching protocols that have been selected
to implement the design
Recommended Voice over IP solution, and the mechanism for i
mplementation
Recommended security mechanisms and products, including a s
ummary of security policies.
Recommended network management processes and products
G: Implementation Plan:

35. The implementation plan includes your recommendations for de
ploying the network design. The design
implementation description should be detailed as possible. Impl
ementation of a network design consists
of several phases (buy and install hardware, configure system, t
est system and so forth). Each phase
consists of several steps, and documentation for each step shoul
d contain the following:
A project schedule
Plans with vendors or service providers for installation of links,
equipment or services
Plan or recommendations for outsourcing the implementation or
management of the network
A plan for communicating the design to end users, network adm
inistrators, and management
A training plan for network administrators and end users
A plan for measuring the effectiveness of the design after it has
been implemented
A list of known risks that could delay the project
A fallback plan if the network implementation fails
A pan for upgrading the network design as new application requ
irement goals arise

budget can also include consulting fees and outsourcing expense
s.
I: Design Document Appendix
Most design documents include one or more appendixes that pre
sent supplemental information about the
design and implementation. Supplemental information can inclu
de detailed topology drawings, device
configurations, network addressing and naming details and com

39. prehensive results from the testing of the
network design. You can include business information such as a
list of contact names, numbers and e-
mail addresses. The appendix can include warranty information
on devices, legal agreement, and any
information which is not critical for the design, but has been not
ed in your information gathering process.
