Assignment:
You are working as an enterprise architect in NGN Co., you have been given the responsibility to design and document the end-to-end telecom solution adhering to the following business requirements:
• An end-to-end architecture diagram that highlights the key aspects of your solution or proposal covering network solutions for the major cities and regional areas.
• The solution to deliver a highly available, very reliable and very fast infrastructure, and make sure the solution is scalable to support current and future business requirements.
• Make sure the proposed solution will support both consumer and business customers for their connectivity and integration needs. (Consumer with their household requirements, and business with their enterprise corporate needs and expectations)

Your Assumptions
With any planning and design activity, there are many factors that can affect your
Assignment. You may not have all the information that you need for your Assignment. If you need more information you should make some intelligent assumptions. If you do, clearly identify the assumptions you made and why you made them.
Doing the Assignment:
• Use external research material and lecture information, include material from a wide range of sources (not just a few sources),
