PROJECT SCOPE – Part 1

Project scope

FEASIBILITY STUDY – Part 1

Objectives of the Network:

1. Secure Service – What is the main objective of this network?

2. Integration and Updates –What needs to be done to get the current network up-to-date?

3. Versatile Information Process –What does the network need to be able to do? For example, applications, devices, computers, laptops, etc.

4. Collaboration – How will the network be used to collaborate with other offices? Other users in a different location?

5. Scalability – How will the network be able to adapt to change?

Intended Users –What type of mobility requirements, client device requirements, and signal coverage requirements are needed?

Design Assumptions – State the assumptions for unknown factors that could affect the project.

Equipment Needs and Proposed Budget

NETWORK NEEDS ANALYSIS – Part 2

Data Types – What types of data will be served by the network? For example, reports.

Data Sources – How will the data be used? For example, will it need to go into a database and be accessed by an end user?

Number of Users that will need to be supported

Speed Requirements – What type of expectations do you think the users will expect from the network? What would be the throughput to meet these expectations?

Load Variation Estimates –How much load do you think the network will be using?

QoS REQUIREMENTS – Part 4

QoS Requirements – QoS requirements for phones, video, etc.

RELIABILITY AND SECURITY REQUIREMENTS – Part 5

Reliability Requirements – What do users expect of the network?

Security Requirements – According to the government requirements, what type of security will need to be put into place?

NETWORK DESIGN – Part 5

Include any diagrams that explain the wireless network. You may have multiple diagrams—1 for each set of users, depending on your assigned business (Administrators, Doctors, Construction Workers, Tellers, Guests, etc.). Include security appliances into the network design and ensure they are connected to the appropriate devices.
