Project Background and Scope

XYZ hospital is a fast upcoming hospital in the city center. The growth experienced is as a result of quality services offered by our mentioned hospital and trust this hospital has won from its customers. As a result of this, XYZ hospital has decided to come up with a spacious offices that will enable the hospital perform its duties with respect to client requirements. In this task we are tasked to design the network and implement it according to XYZ hospital requirements.

Device Name	Manufacture Name	Series	Model Save Time On Research and Writing Hire a Pro to Write You a 100% Plagiarism-Free Paper. Get My Paper	Ports	Quantity	Justification
Switch	Cisco Systems	2900	Cisco	48 Ethernet	13	4 switches for building 1, 5 switches for building 2 and another 4 switches for building 3. Switches enable expansion of network. NB. It is assumed that our switches are 48 port, each floor of the building has 1 switch.
Firewall	Cisco Systems	5500	ASA	2 Ethernet 1 Serial	1	For traffic filtering incoming and outgoing packets to ensure systems security.
Wireless Router	Cisco systems	500	Cisco	2 Ethernet	3	1 for building , another for building 2 and another for building 3. Devices that are incompatible with Ethernet LAN, will be using Wi-Fi.
Router	Cisco Systems	2900	Cisco	2 Serial 2 Giganet	1	1 router is required for communication of devices both inside and outside LAN i.e. routing
Distribution Layer Switch	Cisco systems	3500	Cisco	24 Ethernet ports	1	To be used to bring together all switch traffic.

Type of cables

Cable Type	Length(Metres)	Justification
CAT 6	3300	For connection of data points and computing devices on the network
Fibre	1600	For interconnection of the 3 buildings

Other networking components

Component Name	How many?	Justification
4AU Cabinet Rack	1	For housing server, router firewall and ground floor switch
2*3 ft cabinet	13	Each floor switch
RJ45 clips (male)	1500	For data point terminations
RJ45 clips (female)	1500	For Ethernet connection on workstations
Faceplates	1500	For housing RJ45 female clips
Patch panel	13	For LAN management
Trunkings	1800 metres	For covering of network cables

Specification of Computers used

Item Name	Specs	Justification
Server	Windows Server 2008 OS, Broadcom Network controller, 4 drive bays, 5 USB port, 64gb RAM, RAID controllers, Intel C236 Chipset	Is used hosting printing services, messaging and webserver, file sharing, DHCP, mailing, DN, services
PC	4gb RAM, 500gb HDD, Windows 10 Pro, 26 inch monitor, DVD reader, Keyboard and Mouse	These computers will be used for daily activities by employees.
Laptops	Windows 10 Pro, 2*USB 3.1 Gen 1,i7, 1TB HDD,4gb, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth	For use by employees who will be outside in the field.

In the above network design diagram, it has the flowing elements:

Building 1

Building 1 requires 4-48port switches and a wireless router to accommodate this floor’s population of 175 (ie 5 floors*10 small rooms*2 +5 floors *5 wards *3 )data points. Wireless router to be used for devices that are not supported by Ethernet LAN.

Distribution layer switch will be used as a stub network to bring switches’ data communication to the router.

The router is used to route packets from client workstation to outside world.

Building 2

This building requires four 48-port switches and wireless router to accommodate this floor’s population of 195 (ie 5 floors*10 small rooms*2 +5 floors *5 wards *3+20 data points of server room) data points. Wireless router to be used for devices that are not supported by Ethernet LAN.

Building 3

Building 1 requires 4-48port switches and a wireless router to accommodate this floor’s population of 175 (ie 5 floors*10 small rooms*2 +5 floors *5 wards *3) data points. Wireless router to be used for devices that are not supported by Ethernet LAN.
