LAN Topologies It 240 Week 2 Assignment: LAN Topologies IT/240 Week 2 Assignment 1. Case Project 2-1 With a network of 50 computers I will use the Ring Topology to upgrade this network. With this type of topology all the devices are connecting in a loop form and the information travels in one direction, thus avoiding collisions. Here the cabling doesn’t terminate, it continually goes from one device to another till it gets back to the original device. It is also easier to manage the

Rodolfo Aybar IT/240 LAN Topologies Scott Perales April 27, 2014 Case 2-1 I would recommend the use of a central server which will ease up the process of controlling the incoming and outgoing data transmission. The central server will help the network not get overloaded with the amount of data packets being received and sent. In relation with the Hubs, it will be beneficiary to update them to be able to hubs with the capacity of 1,000 Mbps. This will also help with the overall network performance

LAN Topologies Jason Smith IT/240 September 7 2014 TAMMY FLEMONS LAN Topologies Case Project 2-1 You have been hired to upgrade a network of 50 computers currently connected to 10 Mbps hubs. This long-overdue upgrade is necessary because of poor network response time caused by a lot of collisions occurring during long file transfers between clients and servers. How do you recommend upgrading this network? What interconnecting devices will you use, and what benefit will you get from using

Ramirez LAN Topologies IT/240 Carlos Zapata May 31, 2014 LAN Topologies Case Project I The changes in equipment that would be required to bring Old-Tech Corporation up to date and solve the shared bandwidth problem would be to change their network scheme. To go from a Star topology to and extended star topology, which their logical topology would be a ring. We would have to buy five wireless nic-cards to start to accommodate the cabling issue in the warehouse as well as a wireless

LAN Topologies IT/240 Intro to LAN Technologies 4/29/2014 Farooq Afzal Case 3-1 In my opinion a client/server system with an extended star topology would be the best choice for Old-Tech Corporation. I would replace the 10 Mbps Ethernet cord with an 100 Mbps Ethernet cord to ensure a faster more reliable connection. The extended star topology will allow each computer to have access to shared files and the administrator can delegate which computer has access to which information within the

Network Consultant Scenarios Joshua Lillis IT/240 July 20th, 2014 Network Consultant Scenarios * What changes in equipment are required to bring this company’s network up to date to solve the shared-bandwidth problem? Since the office has 10 workstations connected to a 10 Mbps hub, each computer average bandwidth is 1 Mbps. Since the LAN is relatively small, you can change it to a 100 MB switch. Even if their NICs are only 10 MB, they can upgrade their NICs as need be. Since seem to
