Executive Summary
The Florida Association of Nonprofits (FANO) would like a cost effective way to
connect their organization throughout the building. The number of core employees is thirteen,
however, they have quite a few volunteers that come in to help out and utilize office space. The
leasing company offered them some older computers that they would like to integrate into their
system. They would like to have the network and every computer set up based on the varying
departments within their organization. The offices they have leased are on two floors of the same
building and they are requiring us to install the appropriate technologies so the entire
organization is connected seamlessly.
The Florida Association of Nonprofits mission is to enhance the well-being of all people
in the communities of Florida by building the capacity of the nonprofit sector. Florida Nonprofits
assist Florida’s more than 50,000 charities to reach their mission by strengthening their
leadership, management, financial, and public policy capacity. Their team consists of one
President CEO, and twelve full time staff with extra space needed for the myriad of volunteers
needed to help run their organization. The space required to house their servers needs to be fairly
large to support their website, email and data.
They have asked that their communication between offices and floors be stream-lined.
They would like their mail server housed within their office complex for the convenience of
connecting with each other and their clients. They also host a website from their server with
internet access so the public can view their mission and explore their organization.
Written Description
The facility will house the minimum requirements needed to efficiently produce the
expected amount of data transfer and quality connection to outside resources. This will include
the Cat 5e cabling to provide efficient and reliable data transfer to the network systems. We will
be housing everything internally such as the web server, mail server, database server, application
server, FTP server, and print server for the site. Routers and switches will be set up in the server
room with the rest of the main hardware for the network.
The network we will be building consists of three different subnets. The DMZ subnet will
be behind the external firewall with the other two subnets behind the internal firewall to help
protect them from outside harm that can come from the Internet. One subnet will be used
internally for the servers that house storage, printer management, and application hosting. The
other internal subnet houses the workstation of the organization’s employees. There will be a
system administrator that would be in charge of managing the three switches in the building, the
two routers and the two physical firewalls. (Please, refer to Appendix A to view the physical
network created.)
The distribution of the computers, monitors, routers, switches, servers, and firewalls are
shown in the Appendix A layout for the first and fifth floors. Printers are connected through the
print server throughout the building and everything else is physically connected to the network.
Data must pass through the firewalls in order to get to certain parts of the network. Cat5e cable
connects all of the devices with each other making the physical network.
The logical view of the network is shown in Appendix B. Here it shows the type of
devices in the network along with their correlating IP addresses. The demarcation point is
located on the first floor in a room labeled “demarc point”. The diagram shows what the devices
may look like in real life and includes the connection between them. The network has a
hierarchical outline that depicts the flow. The Internet is at the top of the diagram and can
connect to any user around the world. It flows down through the firewalls and goes further into
the network as the connection goes along. The inner parts of the network are more vulnerable so
they need to be protected more than other parts of the network.
The breakdown of the costs to setting up the network from ground up are shown in
Appendix C. The majority of the costs for setting up this network will be covered by FANO,
although some of the computers and monitors were donated to them. Here you can see the
breakdown of all the devices, hardware and software needed to operate the network efficiently.
The grand total of the project comes to just under $87,000. This is currently only an estimate for
the cost of the project.
Network Policies
1.
In non-profit networks there are several network protocols that are used. These network
protocols are utilized to ensure rules are fulfilled for the data to transfer properly. As an example,
a Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is a protocol designed to transfer emails between
systems. A client using SMTP can send emails and also recieve notifications from another client.
The protocol is located on port 25 aboard the server and it can emanate to each port within the
computers in the network. Also, we have Post Office Protocol (POP3), which is a protocol
designed to retrieve and hold an individual’s mail by their internet server.
2.
The extended network policies we are implementing include web server monitoring to
maintain security by denying access to specific websites. This will ensure that we maintain the
utmost secure environment, and this access list will also deny use of bandwidth heavy sites to
further improve network connectivity.
Security Policies
Florida Association of Nonprofits prides itself on its ability to work with a vast amount of
non-profits within the state. Because of this organizations work with a vast group of non-profit
organizations the need for security is of the utmost importance when working with these
organizations. With this information in mind, this organization will follow a policy of least
access, which means that users will be segmented from each different zone of the network to
ensure a more secure allocation of resources. They will also be implementing a two factor
authentication on all desktops and devices connected to the network.
DisasterRecovery Policy
The disaster recovery policy for FANO’s network is having separate cold sites for
emergency services. This will allow the company operations to continue in the case of a cyber
attack or a natural disaster. The storage will be backed up nightly to an offsite location, so if the
servers get destroyed for any reason, FANO will have the ability to recover quickly.
All of our servers will also be connected to a generator to allow ample time to backup
data to another storage facility or to the cloud servers. There will be two UPS units; one will
backup the other incase one runs out of power before the backup generator powers up. All forty-
five computers and the printers will be plugged into surge protectors which will be plugged into
the electrical outlet in the walls.
Budget
The budget for FANO encapsulated in Appendix C: Bill of Materials. Along with the materials
purchased, there were eighteen desktop computers left behind by the previous tenant that the
leasing company has graciously given FANO. We wiped their harddrives with DBAN to ensure
the security and integrity of the new network system. In addition to the desktop computers, there
were 9 LCD monitors that were kept to lower the cost to FANO. By hosting their own web
servers and email servers we were able to cut the costs down of having a third party monitor and
secure their network. The planned implementation of security throughout the network allows us
to spread the security to our web and email servers to protect them, as well. By purchasing larger
hardware than is needed for FANO currently, it allows room to expand in the future without
having to upgrade their systems or hardware to meet FANO’s growing needs.

  • 1. Network Design Project for Florida Association of Nonprofits Introduction to Networks & Telecommunications LIS 4482 December 4, 2020 Burton Boyd, Jennifer Nichols, Austen Willingham, Peter Cummings
  • 2. Executive Summary The Florida Association of Nonprofits (FANO) would like a cost effective way to connect their organization throughout the building. The number of core employees is thirteen, however, they have quite a few volunteers that come in to help out and utilize office space. The leasing company offered them some older computers that they would like to integrate into their system. They would like to have the network and every computer set up based on the varying departments within their organization. The offices they have leased are on two floors of the same building and they are requiring us to install the appropriate technologies so the entire organization is connected seamlessly. The Florida Association of Nonprofits mission is to enhance the well-being of all people in the communities of Florida by building the capacity of the nonprofit sector. Florida Nonprofits assist Florida’s more than 50,000 charities to reach their mission by strengthening their leadership, management, financial, and public policy capacity. Their team consists of one President CEO, and twelve full time staff with extra space needed for the myriad of volunteers needed to help run their organization. The space required to house their servers needs to be fairly large to support their website, email and data. They have asked that their communication between offices and floors be stream-lined. They would like their mail server housed within their office complex for the convenience of connecting with each other and their clients. They also host a website from their server with internet access so the public can view their mission and explore their organization. Written Description The facility will house the minimum requirements needed to efficiently produce the expected amount of data transfer and quality connection to outside resources. This will include
  • 3. the Cat 5e cabling to provide efficient and reliable data transfer to the network systems. We will be housing everything internally such as the web server, mail server, database server, application server, FTP server, and print server for the site. Routers and switches will be set up in the server room with the rest of the main hardware for the network. The network we will be building consists of three different subnets. The DMZ subnet will be behind the external firewall with the other two subnets behind the internal firewall to help protect them from outside harm that can come from the Internet. One subnet will be used internally for the servers that house storage, printer management, and application hosting. The other internal subnet houses the workstation of the organization’s employees. There will be a system administrator that would be in charge of managing the three switches in the building, the two routers and the two physical firewalls. (Please, refer to Appendix A to view the physical network created.) The distribution of the computers, monitors, routers, switches, servers, and firewalls are shown in the Appendix A layout for the first and fifth floors. Printers are connected through the print server throughout the building and everything else is physically connected to the network. Data must pass through the firewalls in order to get to certain parts of the network. Cat5e cable connects all of the devices with each other making the physical network. The logical view of the network is shown in Appendix B. Here it shows the type of devices in the network along with their correlating IP addresses. The demarcation point is located on the first floor in a room labeled “demarc point”. The diagram shows what the devices may look like in real life and includes the connection between them. The network has a hierarchical outline that depicts the flow. The Internet is at the top of the diagram and can connect to any user around the world. It flows down through the firewalls and goes further into
  • 4. the network as the connection goes along. The inner parts of the network are more vulnerable so they need to be protected more than other parts of the network. The breakdown of the costs to setting up the network from ground up are shown in Appendix C. The majority of the costs for setting up this network will be covered by FANO, although some of the computers and monitors were donated to them. Here you can see the breakdown of all the devices, hardware and software needed to operate the network efficiently. The grand total of the project comes to just under $87,000. This is currently only an estimate for the cost of the project. Network Policies 1. In non-profit networks there are several network protocols that are used. These network protocols are utilized to ensure rules are fulfilled for the data to transfer properly. As an example, a Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is a protocol designed to transfer emails between systems. A client using SMTP can send emails and also recieve notifications from another client. The protocol is located on port 25 aboard the server and it can emanate to each port within the computers in the network. Also, we have Post Office Protocol (POP3), which is a protocol designed to retrieve and hold an individual’s mail by their internet server. 2. The extended network policies we are implementing include web server monitoring to maintain security by denying access to specific websites. This will ensure that we maintain the utmost secure environment, and this access list will also deny use of bandwidth heavy sites to further improve network connectivity.
  • 5. Security Policies Florida Association of Nonprofits prides itself on its ability to work with a vast amount of non-profits within the state. Because of this organizations work with a vast group of non-profit organizations the need for security is of the utmost importance when working with these organizations. With this information in mind, this organization will follow a policy of least access, which means that users will be segmented from each different zone of the network to ensure a more secure allocation of resources. They will also be implementing a two factor authentication on all desktops and devices connected to the network. DisasterRecovery Policy The disaster recovery policy for FANO’s network is having separate cold sites for emergency services. This will allow the company operations to continue in the case of a cyber attack or a natural disaster. The storage will be backed up nightly to an offsite location, so if the servers get destroyed for any reason, FANO will have the ability to recover quickly. All of our servers will also be connected to a generator to allow ample time to backup data to another storage facility or to the cloud servers. There will be two UPS units; one will backup the other incase one runs out of power before the backup generator powers up. All forty- five computers and the printers will be plugged into surge protectors which will be plugged into the electrical outlet in the walls. Budget
  • 6. The budget for FANO encapsulated in Appendix C: Bill of Materials. Along with the materials purchased, there were eighteen desktop computers left behind by the previous tenant that the leasing company has graciously given FANO. We wiped their harddrives with DBAN to ensure the security and integrity of the new network system. In addition to the desktop computers, there were 9 LCD monitors that were kept to lower the cost to FANO. By hosting their own web servers and email servers we were able to cut the costs down of having a third party monitor and secure their network. The planned implementation of security throughout the network allows us to spread the security to our web and email servers to protect them, as well. By purchasing larger hardware than is needed for FANO currently, it allows room to expand in the future without having to upgrade their systems or hardware to meet FANO’s growing needs.
