Network Design and Implementation Strategy Document
For the assignments in this course you will be developing a comprehensive Network Design and Implementation Strategy document which is the final Key Assignment deliverable.
Throughout this course, you will be working on several aspects of networking needs analysis and design that will result in a complete Network Design and Implementation Strategy document for a scenario organization of your choosing.
You will work extensively with the concepts of good networking practices in this project.
Additional information and the deliverables for each Individual Project will be provided in the assignment description for that project.
Target Organization Selection
The first step will be to select a scenario organization as the target for your network design and implementation strategy. This scenario organization will be used as the basis for each of the assignments throughout the course and should conform to the following guidelines:
Nontrivial: The selected organization should be large enough to allow reasonable exercise of the networking principles in the course assignments.
Domain knowledge: You should be familiar enough with the organization to allow focus on the assignment tasks without significant time required for domain education.
Accessibility: You should have good access to the people and other information related to the organization because this will be an important part of the process.
Select a scenario organization that fits these requirements and submit your proposal to your instructor before proceeding further with the assignments in the course.
Approval should be sought within the first several days of the course. Your instructor will tell you how to submit this proposal and what notification will be given for approval.
