Criteria Ratings Points

IT Infrastructure Design

70 to >64 pts

Advanced

Project instructions and requirements are exceeded on optimal network design and topology. Excellent architectural design for an enterprise computer network with over 2,000 devices that is fully functional and properly addresses fault tolerance, high availability, security, scalability, resiliency, and flexibility given modern industry best practices, research, and standards for IT infrastructure. Over 15 routers, 15 switches, 15 computers, and 5 servers are designed and implemented using an optimal and modern computer networking framework.

IT Infrastructure Configuration

80 to >73 pts

Advanced

Project instructions and requirements are exceeded. All functionality is operational that meets each of the project instruction requirements including a supported network design for 2,000+ nodes, IP addressing, LAN design, ISP design, data center design, NAT, VLANs, DNS, DHCP, Email, and web services. External and internal workstations can connect to all services appropriately but are denied access to services they should not have access given their role. Optimal networking protocols are functional and designed properly for the network as defined by the project instructions.
