The organization is looking forward to expanding its communication reach. This paper will analyze the current network architecture to determine the important changes which ought to be done to prepare the organization for future growth. This paper will also evaluate the traffic patterns to determine the critical aspects of the organization.
Network Applications
As seen from physical design diagram, Memphis location is the smallest location with only 30 employees, Memphis Local Area Connection deals with operations and billing. In addition to this, the Memphis location has two servers only; one for operation and one billing. Two work-stations are also available which are for video conferencing, and VOIP Phone system. Also, in this workstation, there is one router and one switch. The router is used to connect to the Dallas office remotely.
The Dallas office is the largest location with 90+ employees. The location handles four applications which are Payroll, HR, Accounting, and Email. There is a total of three workstations with four servers. The first server is an email server, the second server hosts payroll, accounting, and HR applications, and the other two are one for Video conferencing and another one for VOIP system. Lastly, Dallas location is equipped with one router, two switches, and one firewall.

West Consulting Network Design SummaryWest Consulting Business Description
West Consulting is a graphic design and printing company. It is growing in consumer and sales volume and therefore, is expanding its local campus in Houston, Texas and adding a test location in China.Business Problem
As a graphics design and printing company, West Consulting runs bandwidth-intensive applications from servers housed at their headquarters in Houston, Texas. IT leadership has determined that the current network continuously runs in a degraded state and users experience heavy latency when accessing the servers that house their customer Computer Aided Design (CAD) software.
Due to increased sales of their CAD designs, they need to expand their facilities. The company headquarters currently has 1,000 unique users amongst their two buildings and has decided to add another building and 500 users.
In addition, leadership has decided to expand into China to enable them to test their designs in a new and growing market. The footprint in China will be relatively small; approximately 30 people.
Solution
You are a Network Consultant for West Consulting. You are tasked with proposing an improved network design to support their growth and expansion plans.Requirements
1. A secure WLAN solution in the new building for half of the users and recommendations to upgrade their existing WLAN infrastructure to keep wiring costs down.
2. Recommendations on a Unified Communications system that meets traffic demands, with minimal interruptions, due to the frequency of international videoconferencing calls that will occur.
3. An IP solution that can accommodate the new users in all locations.
4. Recommendations to upgrade their switch bandwidth to 10GB fiber uplinks between backbone switches, a 10GB connection to each of the servers, and add-in options for redundancy. High availability access to these critical servers is a must because of the expected traffic increase and load on the servers.
5. Proposal for a data center solution that takes advantage of both network and server virtualization technologies to reduce their costs in acquiring and maintaining hardware.
6. Improvements to the link speed to the internet.
7. Options for implementing greater security for their Intranet servers that their partners and employees heavily use and for their overall network infrastructure, as they have had attacks on their DMZ.
8. Have proof that these improvements will be completed within a 4- to 6-month timeline.
Network Configuration Details
The Network Engineer verbally shared the configuration details of their network, as follows:Headquarters:
· Bldg. 1 and Bldg. 2 are located about 1000 ft. apart. Switches:
· Bldg. 1 has one 6500 backbone switch installed; which supports users from both buildings.
· Bldg. 2 has a connection to the backbone switch via a 10GB fiber connection (10G Base LR) from uplink port on a Cisco 38 ...

9.1 Role of Planning
Planning is one of the most important, yet least understood, jobs that a manager performs. Poor planning can hinder a company's ability to handle unexpected occurrences. Good
planning can place a company in an extremely strong compe��ve posi�on, one that prepares the organiza�on to deal with any event. All parts of the organiza�on—marke�ng,
opera�ons, finance—must work together in the planning process to ensure that they are moving in harmony with one another.
The start of the planning ac�vity is the development of a compe��ve strategy. In today's extremely compe��ve global marketplace, organiza�ons cannot afford to go forward
without a well-planned strategy, which includes the opera�ons func�on as well as every other part of the organiza�on. The strategy is then converted into a business plan—a
blueprint for implemen�ng the strategic plan. Based on a forecast and the business plan, each part of an organiza�on must then develop its own plans that describe how the
various parts will work to implement the business and strategic plans. Forecasts of demand and other important business factors, such as costs, are vital if an organiza�on wants to
create an effec�ve plan. This series of planning stages is shown in Figure 9.1.
Figure 9.1: Opera�ons planning ac�vi�es
As part of this overall planning effort, firms develop opera�onal plans that extrapolate across different �me periods. Long-range opera�ons planning addresses facili�es and
resources including the number of facili�es to build, the loca�on(s), the capacity, and the type of process technologies. Long-range planning is o�en considered to be five years, but
could be longer or shorter depending on the industry, For example, if an industry such as electric .

I. INTRODUCTION
There are many ways for the company to improve its
performance, one of them is optimizing the internal control
of the company's activities and also implementation of the
new system to increase efficiency and effectiveness in all
business process activities [4]. Internal control is a process
undertaken by company management to assist the
achievement of operations, reporting and in accordance with
the compliance [9]. The internal optimization is needed
because it describes the overall rules and procedures used by
management to improve management effectiveness in the
business and identify lack of internal control in the business
processes that it can make the organization vulnerable and
possible risks occurs, eventually all these risks can have an
impact on a company's financial performance [2].
In warehouse management, internal controls devoted to
optimizing the functions, including the process of finished
goods inventory, and it useful to organize the distribution
process to the market. According to Rita Makumbi (2013)
[6] the function of the warehouse management is one of a
service that can help the company's operational functions
run smoothly as a store of raw material, unfinished goods,
until stock the finished goods.

A ) Society perspective
90 year old female, Mrs. Ruth, from home with her daughter, is admitted to hospital after sustaining a hip fracture. She has a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease on home oxygen and moderate to severe aortic stenosis. (Obstruction of blood flow through part of the heart) She undergoes urgent hemiarthroplasty (hip surgery) with an uneventful operative course.
The patient and her family are of Jewish background. The patient’s daughter is her primary caregiver and has financial power-of-attorney, but it is not known whether she has formal power of attorney for personal care. Concerns have been raised to the ICU team about the possibility of elder abuse in the home by the patient’s daughter.
Unfortunately, on postoperative day 4, the patient develops delirium with respiratory failure secondary to hospital acquired pneumonia and pulmonary edema. (Fluid in the lungs) Her goals of care were not assessed pre-operatively. She is admitted to the ICU for non-invasive positive pressure ventilation for 48 hours, and then deteriorates and is intubated. After 48 hours of ventilation, it was determined that due to the severity of her underlying cardio-pulmonary status (COPD and aortic stenosis), ventilator weaning would be difficult and further ventilation would be futile.
The patient’s daughter is insistent on continuing all forms of life support, including mechanical ventilation and even extracorporeal membranous oxygenation (does the work of the lungs) if indicated. However, the Mrs Ruth’s delirium clears within the next 24 hours of intubation, and she is now competent, although still mechanically ventilated. She communicated to the ICU team that she preferred 1-way extubation (removal of the ventilator) and comfort care. This was communicated in writing to the ICU team, and was consistent over time with other care providers. The patient went as far to demand the extubation over the next hour, which was felt to be reasonable by the ICU team.
The patient’s daughter was informed of this decision, and stated that she could not come to the hospital for 2 hours, and in the meantime, that the patient must remain intubated.
At this point, the ICU team concurred with the patient’s wishes, and extubated her before her daughter was able to come to the hospital.
The daughter was angry at the team’s decision, and requested that the patient be re-intubated if she deteriorated. When the daughter arrived at the hospital, the patient and daughter were able to converse, and the patient then agreed to re-intubation if she deteriorated.

9 AssignmentAssignment Typologies of Sexual AssaultsT.docx
9 Assignment
Assignment: Typologies of Sexual Assaults
There are many different types of sexual assaults and many different types of offenders. Although they are different, they can be classified in order to create a common language between the criminal justice field and the mental health field. This in turn will enable more accurate research, predict future offenses, and assist in the prosecution and rehabilitation of the offenders.
In this Assignment, you compare different typologies of sexual offenders to determine the differences in motivation, expression of aggression, and underlining personality structure. You also determine the best way to interview each typology of sexual offenders.
To prepare for this Assignment:
Review the Learning Resources.
Select two typologies of sexual offenders listed in the resources.
By Day 7
In a 3- to 5- page paper:
Compare the two typologies of sexual offenders you selected by explaining the following:
The motivational differences between the two typologies
The expression of aggression in the two typologies
The differences in the underlining personality structure of the two typologies

Contribution to Public Health� (Public� Health�
England,�2013).�This�new�guidance�document�
is� designed� to� illuminate� the� specific� roles�

to� reinforce� the� pivotal� health-promoting�

Background
A� report� by� The� King’s� Fund� (2012)� has�
shown�that�high�levels�of�admission�to�hospital,�

9 Augustine Confessions (selections) Augustine of Hi.docx
9 Augustine
Confessions
(selections)
Augustine of Hippo wrote his Confessions between 397 -400 CE. In it he gives an
autobiographical account of his whole life up through his conversion to Christianity.
In Book 2, excerpted here, he thinks over the passions and temptations of his youth,
especially during a period where he had to come home from where he was studying
and return to living with his parents. His mother Monica was already Christian and
his father was considering it. They want him to be academically successful and
become a great orator.

1. (1) I wish to put on record the disgusting deeds in which I engaged, and
the corrupting effect of sensual experience on my soul, not because I love
them, but so that I may love you, my God. I do this because of my love for
your love, to the end that—as I recall my wicked, wicked ways in the
bitterness of recollection—you may grow even sweeter to me. For you are
a sweetness which does not deceive, a sweetness which brings happiness
and peace, pulling me back together from the disintegration in which I was
being shattered and torn apart, when I turned away from you who are unity

during my adolescence when I burned to have my fill of hell. I ran wild and
reckless in all manner of shady liaisons, and my outward appearance
deteriorated, and I degenerated before your eyes as I went on pleasing
myself and desiring to appear pleasing in human sight.
2. (2) What was it that used to delight me, if not loving and being loved? But
there was no boundary maintained between one mind and another, and
reaching only as far as the clear confines of friendship. Instead the slime
of fleshly desire and the spurts of adolescence belched out their fumes,
and these clouded and obscured my heart, so that it was impossible to
distinguish the purity of love from the darkness of lust. Both of them
together seethed in me, dragging my immaturity over the heights of bodily
desire, and plunging me down into a whirlpool of sin. Your anger grew
strong against me, but I was unaware of it. I had been deafened by the
loud grinding of the chain of my mortality, the punishment for the pride of
my soul, and I went even further away from yo.
8.3 Intercultural CommunicationLearning Objectives1. Define in.docx
8.3 Intercultural Communication
Learning Objectives
1. Define intercultural communication.
2. List and summarize the six dialectics of intercultural communication.
3. Discuss how intercultural communication affects interpersonal relationships.
It is through intercultural communication that we come to create, understand, and transform culture and identity. Intercultural communication is communication between people with differing cultural identities. One reason we should study intercultural communication is to foster greater self-awareness (Martin & Nakayama, 2010). Our thought process regarding culture is often “other focused,” meaning that the culture of the other person or group is what stands out in our perception. However, the old adage “know thyself” is appropriate, as we become more aware of our own culture by better understanding other cultures and perspectives. Intercultural communication can allow us to step outside of our comfortable, usual frame of reference and see our culture through a different lens. Additionally, as we become more self-aware, we may also become more ethical communicators as we challenge our ethnocentrism, or our tendency to view our own culture as superior to other cultures.
As was noted earlier, difference matters, and studying intercultural communication can help us better negotiate our changing world. Changing economies and technologies intersect with culture in meaningful ways (Martin & Nakayama). As was noted earlier, technology has created for some a global village where vast distances are now much shorter due to new technology that make travel and communication more accessible and convenient (McLuhan, 1967). However, as the following “Getting Plugged In” box indicates, there is also a digital divide, which refers to the unequal access to technology and related skills that exists in much of the world. People in most fields will be more successful if they are prepared to work in a globalized world. Obviously, the global market sets up the need to have intercultural competence for employees who travel between locations of a multinational corporation. Perhaps less obvious may be the need for teachers to work with students who do not speak English as their first language and for police officers, lawyers, managers, and medical personnel to be able to work with people who have various cultural identities.
“Getting Plugged In”
The Digital Divide
Many people who are now college age struggle to imagine a time without cell phones and the Internet. As “digital natives” it is probably also surprising to realize the number of people who do not have access to certain technologies. The digital divide was a term that initially referred to gaps in access to computers. The term expanded to include access to the Internet since it exploded onto the technology scene and is now connected to virtually all computing (van Deursen & van Dijk, 2010). Approximately two billion people around the world now access the Internet regularl.

Life in a Toxic Country
By EDWARD WONG
BEIJING — I RECENTLY found myself hauling a bag filled with 12 boxes of milk powder and a
cardboard container with two sets of air filters through San Francisco International Airport. I was
heading to my home in Beijing at the end of a work trip, bringing back what have become two of
the most sought-after items among parents here, and which were desperately needed in my own
household.
China is the world’s second largest economy, but the enormous costs of its growth are becoming
apparent. Residents of its boom cities and a growing number of rural regions question the safety of
the air they breathe, the water they drink and the food they eat. It is as if they were living in the
Chinese equivalent of the Chernobyl or Fukushima nuclear disaster areas.
Before this assignment, I spent three and a half years reporting in Iraq, where foreign
correspondents talked endlessly of the variety of ways in which one could die — car bombs,
firefights, being abducted and then beheaded. I survived those threats, only now to find myself
wondering: Is China doing irreparable harm to me and my family?
The environmental hazards here are legion, and the consequences might not manifest themselves
for years or even decades. The risks are magnified for young children. Expatriate workers
confronted with the decision of whether to live in Beijing weigh these factors, perhaps more than at
any time in recent decades. But for now, a correspondent’s job in China is still rewarding, and so I
am toughing it out a while longer. So is my wife, Tini, who has worked for more than a dozen years
as a journalist in Asia and has studied Chinese. That means we are subjecting our 9-month-old
daughter to the same risks that are striking fear into residents of cities across northern China, and
grappling with the guilt of doing so.
Like them, we take precautions. Here in Beijing, high-tech air purifiers are as coveted as luxury
sedans. Soon after I was posted to Beijing, in 2008, I set up a couple of European-made air
purifiers used by previous correspondents. In early April, I took out one of the filters for the first
time to check it: the layer of dust was as thick as moss on a forest floor. It nauseated me. I ordered
two new sets of filters to be picked up in San Francisco; those products are much cheaper in the
United States. My colleague Amy told me that during the Lunar New Year in February, a family

Make changes on the names, labels, and measure on the variable view.
Check the measure.
Have the same keys between “Name” and “Label.”
Run factor analysis for ys (dependent variables).
Select “Principal axis factoring” from “Extraction.”
The two-factor solution seems the best as (1) they are over one eigenvalue each and (2) the variance explained for is over 60%.
The new eigenvalues after the rotation.
The rotated factor matrix is clear.
But note that y3 and y1 are collapsed into one factor.
If not you should rerun factor analysis after removing the most problematic item one at a time.
Repeat this procedure until the rotated factor pattern has
(1) no cross-loading,
(2) no weak factor loading (< 0.5), and
(3) an adequate number of items (not more than 5 items per factor).
If a clear factor pattern is obtained, name the factors.
Attitude and purchase intention (y3 and y1)
Boycotting intention (y2)
Compute the reliability of the items of each factor
Make sure all responses were used.
Cronbach’s a (= Reliability a) must be greater than 0.70. Then, you can create the composite variable out of the member items.
Means and STDs must be similar among the items.
No a here should be greater than Cronbach’s a. If not, you should delete such item(s) to increase a.
Create the composite variable for each factor.
BI = mean (y2_1,y2_2,y2_3)
“PI” will be added to the data.

8.1 What Is Corporate StrategyLO 8-1Define corporate strategy.docx
8.1 What Is Corporate Strategy?
LO 8-1
Define corporate strategy and describe the three dimensions along which it is assessed.
Strategy formulation centers around the key questions of where and how to compete. Business strategy concerns the question of how to compete in a single product market. As discussed in Chapter 6, the two generic business strategies that firms can follow to pursue their quest for competitive advantage are to increase differentiation (while containing cost) or lower costs (while maintaining differentiation). If trade-offs can be reconciled, some firms might be able to pursue a blue ocean strategy by increasing differentiation and lowering costs. As firms grow, they are frequently expanding their business activities through seeking new markets both by offering new products and services and by competing in different geographies. Strategic leaders must formulate a corporate strategy to guide continued growth. To gain and sustain competitive advantage, therefore, any corporate strategy must align with and strengthen a firm’s business strategy, whether it is a differentiation, cost-leadership, or blue ocean strategy.
Corporate strategy comprises the decisions that leaders make and the goal-directed actions they take in the quest for competitive advantage in several industries and markets simultaneously.3 It provides answers to the key question of where to compete. Corporate strategy determines the boundaries of the firm along three dimensions: vertical integration along the industry value chain, diversification of products and services, and geographic scope (regional, national, or global markets). Strategic leaders must determine corporate strategy along the three dimensions:
1. Vertical integration: In what stages of the industry value chain should the company participate? The industry value chain describes the transformation of raw materials into finished goods and services along distinct vertical stages.
2. Diversification: What range of products and services should the company offer?
3. Geographic scope: Where should the company compete geographically in terms of regional, national, or international markets?
In most cases, underlying these three questions is an implicit desire for growth. The need for growth is sometimes taken so much for granted that not every manager understands all the reasons behind it. A clear understanding will help strategic leaders to pursue growth for the right reasons and make better decisions for the firm and its stakeholders.
WHY FIRMS NEED TO GROW
LO 8-2
Explain why firms need to grow, and evaluate different growth motives.
Several reasons explain why firms need to grow. These can be summarized as follows:
1. Increase profits.
2. Lower costs.
3. Increase market power.
4. Reduce risk.
5. Motivate management.
Let’s look at each reason in turn.
INCREASE PROFITS
Profitable growth allows businesses to provide a higher return for their shareholders, or owners, if privately held. For publicly trade.
8.0 RESEARCH METHODS These guidelines address postgr.docx
8.0 RESEARCH METHODS
These guidelines address postgraduate students who have completed course
requirements and assumed to have sufficient background experience of high-level
engagement activities like recognizing, relating, applying, generating, reflecting and
theorizing issues. It is an ultimate period in our academic life when we feel confident
at embarking on independent research.
It cannot be overemphasized that we must enjoy the experience of research process
and not look at it as an academic chore.
To enable such a desired behaviour, these guidelines consider the research process
in terms of the skills and knowledge needed to develop independent and critical
styles of thinking in order to evaluate and use research as well as to conduct fresh
research.
The guidelines should be viewed as briefs which the Research Supervisors are expected
to exemplify based on their own experience as well as expertise.
8.1 Chapter 1 - Introduction
INTRODUCE the subject or problem to be studied. This might require the
identification of key managerial concerns, theories, laws and governmental rulings,

Overview, Inhabited Localities,
and Topography
OVERVIEW
Appalachia consists of that large geographic expanse in
the eastern United States that is associated with the
Appalachian mountain system, a 200,000-square-mile
region that extends from the northeastern United States
in southern New York to northern Mississippi. It includes
all of West Virginia and parts of Alabama, Georgia,
Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi, New York, North
Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee,
and Virginia. This very rural area is characterized by a
rolling topography with very rugged ridges and hilltops,
some extending over 4000 feet high, with remote valleys
between them. The surrounding valleys are often 2000
feet or more in elevation and give one a sense of isolation,
peacefulness, and separateness from the lower and more
heavily traveled urban areas. This isolation and rough
topography have contributed to the development of
secluded communities in the hills and natural hollows or
narrow valleys where people, over time, have developed a
strong sense of independence and family cohesiveness.
These same isolated valleys and rugged mountains pre-
sent many transportation problems for those who do not
have access to cars or trucks. Very limited public trans-
portation is available only in the larger urbanized areas.
Even though the Appalachian region includes several
large cities, many people live in small settlements and in
inaccessible hollows or “hollers” (Huttlinger, Schaller-
Ayers, & Lawson, 2004a). The rugged location of many
communities in Appalachia results in a population that is
often isolated from the mainstream of health-care ser-
vices. In some areas of Appalachia, substandard secondary
and tertiary roads, as well as limited public bus, rail, and
airport facilities, prevent easy access to the area (Fig. 5–1).
Difficulty in accessing the area is partially responsible for
continued geographic and sociocultural isolation. The
rugged terrain can significantly delay ambulance response
time and is a deterrent to people who need health care
when their health condition is severe. This is one area in
which telehealth innovations can and often do provide
needed services.
Many of the approximately 24 million people who live
in Appalachia can trace their family roots back 150 or
more years, and it is common to find whole communities
comprising extended, related families. The cultural her-
itage of the region is rich and reflected in their distinctive
music, art, and literature. Even though family roots are
strong, many of the region’s younger residents have left
the area to pursue job opportunities in the larger urban
cities of the north. The remaining, older population
reflects a group that often has less than a high-school edu-
cation, is frequently unemployed, may be on welfare
and/or disability, and is regularly uninsured (20.4 per-
cent) (Virginia He.

Are your IT staff ready
for the pandemic-driven
insider threat? Phil Chapman
Obviously the threat to human life is
the top concern for everyone at this
moment. But businesses are also starting
to suffer as productivity slips globally
and the workforce itself is squeezed.
The UK Government’s March budget
did announce some measures, especially
for small and medium-size enterprises
(SMEs), that will make this period
slightly less painful for organisations.
However, as is apparent from the tank-
ing stock market (the FTSE 100 has
hit levels not seen since June 2012) the
economy and pretty much all businesses
in the country (unless you produce hand
sanitiser) are going to suffer. There is no
time like now for the UK to embrace
its mantra of ‘keep calm and carry on’
because that is what we must do if we’re
going to keep business flowing.
For the IT department at large there is
lots of urgent work to do to ensure that
the business is prepared to keep running
smoothly even if people are having to
work remotely. The task at hand for cyber
security professionals is arguably even
larger as Covid-19 is seeing cyber criminals
capitalising on the fact that the insider
threat is worse than ever, with more people
working remotely from personal devices
than many IT and cyber security teams
have likely ever prepared for.
This article will argue that the cyber
security workforce, which is already suf-
fering a digital skills crisis, may also be
lacking the adequate soft skills required
to effectively tackle the insider threat
that has been exacerbated by the pan-
demic. It will first examine the insider
threat, and why this has become so
much more insidious because of Covid-
19. It will then look into the essential
soft skills required to tackle this threat,
before examining how organisations can
effectively implement an apprentice-
ship strategy that generates professionals
with both hard and soft skills, includ-
ing advice from the CISO of globally
respected law firm Pinsent Masons, who
will provide insight into how he is mak-
ing his strategy work. It will conclude
that many of these issues could be solved
if the industry didn’t rely so heavily on
recruiting graduates and rather looked
towards hiring apprentices.
The insider threat
In the best of times, every cyber-pro-
fessional knows that the biggest threat
to an organisation’s IT infrastructure
is people, both malicious actors and
– much more often – employees and
partners making mistakes. The problem
is that people lack cyber knowledge and
so commit careless actions – for exam-
ple, forwarding sensitive information to
the wrong recipient over email or plug-
ging rogue USBs into their device (yes,
that still happens). Cyber criminals
capitalise on this ignorance by utilising
social engineering tactics ranging from
the painfully simple, like fake emails
from Amazon, to the very sophisticated,
such as.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Week 5: Network Monitoring 7 All Weeks: Network Pro Prep Toolkit 8 Week 1: Target OrganizationTarget Organization About Ryan Computer Enterprises Ryan Computer Enterprises formed in 2000, and provides leading business solutions. Currently there are over 8000 employees that are located throughout five states with three locations in Pennsylvania, Florida, California, Texas and New York. The administrative office currently is located in Pennsylvania. Currently there are over 500 additional employees located in the corporate headquarters. The company provides cutting edge solutions and needs USAA, JP Morgan, Goldman Sacks and other financial institutions. In 2002, Forbes magazine rated Ryan Computer Enterprises as the number one business organization for the field of technical consultation. Major clients of Ryan Computer Enterprises are all in the field of investment banking and insurance. Some major factors of focus for the company will be improvement of business process the clientele have set in place, legacy systems and to have a set solution in place to be utilized thought their organization. Ryan Computer Enterprises has stated that our goal is align both the company and client goals. Ryan Computer Enterprises has slowly replaced existing infrastructure over the years focusing on workstation, printer, switch and routers. Some areas of interest that go beyond the physical infrastructure are application upgrades. The applications that are in questions for upgrades are DBMS and other various apps such as Office 365. It has been over 2 years since the last upgrade to the IT system has been conducted and in order to provide better security and stability it has been decided that specific facets that have been listed must be upgraded as well as servers and the use of cloud technology must be implemented to allow for virtual storage of information. Other technology that should be visited is the
- 3. addition of WAPs through out the facilities this allows the vendors and employees to use their mobile devices and other wireless items as well as the clientele. The last item for discussion that will be addressed as an upgrade will be the addition of remote access. Having VPN capabilities allows Ryan Computer Enterprises to better facilitate troubleshooting and adds to the functionality of its employees. All email services as well as server access allow an employee to better assist with technical work as well as giving the clients the ability to conduct business wherever they might be located. Metrics that are used to identify some of the issues are based on multiple factors but some basic issues are the aging equipment and the lack of network monitoring that is in place. The switches that are in place have very limited throughput and as a result of these issues it has been decided that the business will upgrade from the current 100 Mbps to 1000 Mbps switches. The most crucial replacement will be the core switch that will offer the ability to monitor network activity. Some other metrics that are used for the network will be the latency and bandwidth that are utilized as a result of users on the network and the increased size of files that are transported. Analysis and Recommendations The current setup of the network is one of redundancy meaning that in the NOC there are two MAN routers, two switches that act as a redundant system should the network go down on one core it switches to the other. The system has a main core that the switches are connected two and then from Gunner1 and Gunner2 they move to the distribution cores that are installed. The redundant system runs on a 1 G data link and is a redundant system at our main enterprise building. Both distribution cores have a direct line to the WAN router, which goes out to the Verizon WAN network. From the NOC you will travel down into the data center core. Once in the data center it branches off into blade server connections. From that data center core there are two 3560 switches on a 1 G connection going into two
- 4. physical servers. From the data center core you would branch off into two 5548 UPS and each UPS branches off into two 2248’s which are connected to a server. The 5548 UPS also goes to two sets of 2232 switches and from there to servers. Aside from the network layout we have VOIP phones, Lenovo workbooks and multiple printers on each floor. Some software that we currently have is my SQL DBMS with some applications designed specifically for the company. Currently we need to update our switches and routers due to the age of the equipment always changing along with the newer technology. Currently we have redundancy built through our network and the capability is already in place just upgrading to newer equipment allows us to maintain and even improve off of what we have in place along with the replacement of UPS’s within the company network infrastructure. The metrics that is being utilized for determining what we need to upgrade is the amount of maintenance that occurs on a monthly basis. Because funding is tight the company has decided to replace the physical equipment first and then move forward with the network equipment. Maintenance time has determined how we will address the situation moving forward. Week 2: Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Addressing and Management · TCP/IP Addressing and Management · Document an addressing scheme for the TCP/IP addresses used for the network. · Include categories of network resources, users, and the address ranges to be used for the current and potential future resources and users. · Provide justification for the addressing scheme. Describe the TCP/IP address maintenance process planned for the system. Maintenance should include assignment of new addresses and a periodic review of currently assigned addresses.
- 5. Week 3: Fault Tolerance Plan · Fault Tolerance Plan · Identify at least 5 potential causes of network failure. · For each potential cause of network failure, create a plan with the necessary steps and required hardware to reduce the risk of failure. Include the cost and benefit comparison for each risk reduction plan to justify the plan. Week 4: Security Plan · Security Plan · Conduct a review of the current network security for your target organization. · Identify at least 5 major areas of security risk for the network. · For each security risk area, develop and document a plan to reduce the security risk. Include a description of any software, processes, or other changes necessary to implement the plan. Week 5: Network Monitoring
- 6. · Network Monitoring · Identify the performance metrics that will be measured for the system. · Discuss the collection process for the metrics and the tools that will be used.Document the analysis process that will help determine if there are performance problems occurring or about to occur and the steps that will be taken if a problem is identified.
