Lab: ABC Learning Center

Lab project

ABC Learning Center is a child care center the uses a local

area network to run its business. Employees use a

computer in the main room to check children in and out

and complete other necessary paperwork for the Center.

Records and financial information are kept on another

computer located in a backroom restricted to employees

only. A Web server is also hosted in the backroom; a

router provides access to the Internet via a broadband

DSL connection. The Center does not use antivirus

software, as the Internet access was primarily

implemented to broadcast images from a webcam in the

main room so that parents can check on the children via

the Internet.
