Case Study:
Question 1. You have been asked to design a LAN for a very successful CPA firm with five departments in one building and a total of 560 employees. Currently, the firm has no networked computers, and it is open to any suggestions your team can offer. The firm does have a few requirements, however. It wants to make sure that it can easily expand its LAN in the future without exorbitant costs and moving a lot of equipment.
The firm also wants to make sure that every department has very fast access to the LAN, and, of course, it wants the LAN to remain up at all times. It has already decided to use the Windows Server 2003 network operating system.What kind of LAN will your team design for this company?
