I. Provide a logical/physical design of the networked system with clear explanation and
addressing table

1. The difference between logical and physical design

- The logical design: is more intellectual and abstract than the physical design. In logical design,
you examine the logical links between items. In physical design, you look at storing and
retrieving the objects effectively. Your design should be focused on the demands of the end-
users.

- The physical design: is converting a circuit description into a physical layout that describes the
position of cells and the routes that connect them.

Figure 1: The difference between logical and physical design

2. Discuss and explain user requirements for general network design

2.1. User request

- People: 200 students, 15 teachers, 12 marketing and administration, 5 higher managers,
including the head of academics and the program manager, 3 computers network
administration.
- Resources: 50 student lab computers, 35 staff computers, 3 printers.
- Building: 50 student lab computers, 35 staff computers, 3 printers

5
 2.2. Explain the user requirement
- Ground floor:
 Server room: 3 servers
 CommNet room: 3 computers
 Market Admin room: 12 computers and 1 printer.
 Teacher room: 15 computers and 1 printer.
 Manager room: 5 computers and 1 printer
- First floor:
 Lab room 1: 25 computers
- Second floor:
 Lab room 2: 25 computers

3. System design

3.1. Logical design of network based on the specific requirements

Figure 2: Logical design in my system

- On the ground floor, I connected with S_Server (4 servers), S_Comnet (3 computers),

S_MarketAdmin (12 computers and 1 printer) for staffs, S_teacher (15 computers and 1
printer) for teachers and S_Manager (5 computers and 1 printer) for managers.

6
- On the first floor, I connected 25 computers for students by using Switch “S_ITlab1_1” using
IP address 192.168.60.1 and Switch “S_ITLab1_2” using IP address 192.168.60.2.
- On the second floor, I connected 25 computers for students by using Switch “S_ITlab2_1”
using IP address 192.168.70.1 and Switch “S_ITLab2_2” using IP address 192.168.70.2.

- I decided to divide the ground floor into 1 room: all room will be set in each separate room.
On the right side, we will have CommNet room, Market Admin room with printer, Teacher
room with printer and Manager room with printer. On the left side we will have Server room.
- The remaining 1st and 2nd floor will have 1 room to the left of each floor. Each floor has 2
Switch and 25 PCs in the room on each floor.

2. Evaluate my network design

2.1. Advantages
- Work very effective. The building structure is clearly divided into 3 floors. The ground floor
has CommNet room, Market Admin room, Teacher room and Manager Room. In addition, the
server room is located on the ground floor opposite the staff room.
- Each PC has the ability to ping the other PCs.
- There are student computer on the first and second floors. DNS, web, and mail can be
accessed from the computers in these 2 rooms.
- If there are any issues, fixing the server should be simple.

2.2. Disadvantages
- Need to strengthen security.
- Everything goes offline if the DHCP server is not handled carefully.

2.3. Advices and Solutions

- Upgrade a firewall or other form of security.
- Increase the number of Switch in the layout network.
- Increase costs to improve.

11
III. Implement a networked system based on a prepared design

1. Implementation a Network

1.1. Configure DNS service

- We must ensure that all servers, switches, routers, and computers are connected to the (on
mode) port in order to construct a networked system. We must first construct a server before
configuring the DNS server. Then: DHCP-DNS -> Services -> DNS.

Figure 4: Configure DHCP-DNS server

- After that, I start the DNS service and offer domain name translation.

12
 Figure 5: Configure DHCP-DNS server (2)

- The following step is configuring 192.168.10.2's IP address (IPv4, Subnet Mask and Default
Gateway)

Figure 6: Configure DHCP-DNS server (3)

13
- Click config => Choose setting => Configure IP address.

Figure 7: Configure DHCP-DNS server (4)

- Choses FastEthernet0 in INTERFACE -> Configure IP address (IPv4, Subnet Mask)

Figure 8: Configure DHCP-DNS server (5)

14
- By selecting the desktop mode on PC-PT Cum3, try to ping DHCP-DNS. Type "ping
192.168.10.2" after adding the DHCP-DNS server's IP address. Display screen"0% loss" prove
that I've set up the DHCP-DNS successfully.

 1.3. Add Email service, Website service and FTP
- Email service
Now that we have added the domain name greenwich.edu.vn for mail services, we must
enter the user name and password. Before moving on to the following stage, don't forget to
turn on the service.

Figure 18: Email service

Then, we are going to configure mail: the Desktop -> Email.

This is the user name test for my email settings, and the incoming and outgoing mail server's
address is 192.168.10.4

21
 Figure 19: Configure Email

Add the Email service next. Name of the domain: greenwich.edu.com, with users Lab1 and
Lab26 (illustration).

- Test case 1
DHCP in ground floor
I proceed to check the DHCP for the first 32 staff computers on the ground floor that I had
previously configured. Click on any staffs’ PC, and then select Desktop, IP setup, and finally
DHCP. As a result, we've already configured it successfully.

DHCP in first floor
I proceed to check the DHCP for the first 25 student computers on the first floor that I had
previously configured. Click on students’ PC, and then select Desktop, IP setup, and finally
DHCP. As a result, we've already configured it successfully.

Ping VLAN 20 to VLAN 30
I'm going to ping a computer from VLAN 20 to a computer from VLAN30 in order to examine
the connection status between VLAN 20 and VLAN 30. I "lose 25%" the first time, but I lose
nothing the second time because it can ping correctly.
