...Chapter 1 Case Project 1-1 For Thrift Towne I would choose a peer-to-peer network because they only have four computers and it’s the simplest form of a network. This type of network is simple to configure, so that would be an advantage for the volunteers that will be working there with minimum experience. With a peer-to-peer network, the computers can directly communicate with each other, so there is no need to purchase any more equipment. With a peer-to-peer network, all of the computers will have the same roles. No computer will have more authority over the others. At Thrift Towne, their workstations will be sufficient with the hardware that they came with. Since they would be using the workstations for inventory and schedules, there would be no need for any upgrades at this time. Chapter 1 Case Project 1-2 The network service I would recommend for Scoops would be management services. Since they are having issues with overwhelming traffic and slow servers, this service will help monitor the activity and notify administrators when the network becomes overloaded. If Scoops decided they wanted to expand, network management would help them balance out the data and distribute the data evenly. By using this service, none of the devices will become overwhelmed. Hence the slow servers. Network management is a good service for this company because of how many workstations they have connected to the server. Network management will help with security as well as back up. This service...
