Designing a Network Topology

You are the network manager of a company that has grown from 20 employees to 200 employees in 12 months. Year 2 projected growth is estimated to be 400 additional employees located at a remote location. The aggressive growth has brought about some unique challenges and opportunities. The company has one remote warehouse and no off-site disaster recovery services or servers. The network design remains a non-redundant, flat topology.
 

Your assignment must consider the three-layer hierarchical model. You are free to make supported assumptions of the applications and services that this organization uses. Write a one (1) page paper in which you:

1. Depict a network topology graphical model of the initial environment of 20 employees using Visio or its open source alternative software. Note: The graphically depicted solution is not included in the required page length.
2. Depict a network topology graphical model of the current 200 employees using Visio or its open source alternative software. Note: The graphically depicted solution is not included in the required page length.
3. Depict a network topology graphical model for future growth to 400 employees using Visio or its open source alternative software. Note: The graphically depicted solution is not included in the required page length.
4. Create a two-paragraph executive summary.
