IT-212 Introduction to Computer Networks

The final project for this course is due in Module Seven and is the creation of a report for a potential new office of the advertising firm described in Milestone One. To help you complete the project you will complete two milestones that will be key sections of the final project. In Module Three you submitted Milestone One where you composed the first and second sections of the project: the introduction and the section on local area network (LAN) topology. In Milestone Two you will continue your work toward the final project by composing the next two sections of the final project. In Milestone Two you will also need to review the scenario described in Milestone One and the requirements for the final project. Consider the critical parts that your final project should include and study the rubric that will be used to assess your work. Here is the focus for the final project: Keep in mind however that your work for Milestone Two involves only sections III and IV of the final project. Therefore for Milestone Two the main goal of your report is as follows: The following resources support the diagram work on the project: Microsoft: Add a Drawing to a DocumentAs part of your proposal you need to include a diagram. This document provides step-by-step instructions for creating drawings using the tools available through Microsoft Office. You do not have to use Microsoft Office to create the diagram but it is an option. draw.io—Quick Start Video (1:35)If you decide not to use Microsoft to create your diagram you have the option to use draw.io. This video provides a demonstration of the tools and capabilities of draw.io. Visio 2016You can also choose to use Visio to create your diagram. This tutorial includes information that may be helpful to you when creating your diagram. Getting Started in Lucidchart: The BasicsLucidchart is another application for creating a diagram. This resource shows you how to use Lucidchart to create diagrams. Your work must be submitted as a 1- to 2-page Microsoft Word document with double spacing 12-point Times New Roman font one-inch margins and APA formatting. Remember to copy and paste your diagram into this document instead of submitting a separate file for your diagram.

Requirements: 1 – 2 page Microsoft Word document | .doc file

How would you approach setting up the network at the new location in Fayetteville NC? What considerations are key in informing the systems and resources necessary to meet the organization’s needs and support the business goals and objectives? Explain key considerations for identifying an internet service provider for the new location and recommend the appropriate provider to match the business case.
