...For the 5 workstations at the main office I would like to run Windows 7 Enterprise. Enterprise would not be as cost effective as some of the other options but being that this is the main office and the server is onsite it would be a more secure. Commercial servers, workstations, and other high-end PCs may have more than one physical processor. Windows 7 Enterprise allows for two physical processors, providing the best performance on these computers. Windows 7 Starter, Home Basic, and Home Premium will recognize only one physical processor. This should also speed up the sluggish issue between the computers at the warehouse when trying to access the server files. Also windows 7 ultimate works well with Microsoft office products and other business related programs. For the 3 workstations at the warehouse I would use Windows 7 Professional. . Windows 7 Professional has some good features that work well with business. Windows 7 Professional allows for backup and restore on networks in addition to having file system encryption through EFS. Not to mention the easy connect feature that Windows 7 Professional has, your help-desk, with your permission, can remotely connect to your windows 7 pc to fix Home Group problems. Windows 7 Professional is also has location aware printing that can automatically switch your laptop from your home printer to the office for those employees that travel between the Main office and the Warehouse. Not to mention that Windows 7 Professional...

... Abstract In this brief I will attempt to explain the usage of the TCP/IP protocol so that the user may better understand the functions of this protocol. I will also provide the pertainate information for the configuration of the TCP/IP protocol to you system this will include the setting for this configuration. One of the most popular network protocols in use today is TCP/IP, (Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol) which is the basic transmission language or protocol of the internet. This may also be utilized as a communications protocol in a private network as well, such as intranet or extranet. If you utilize a set up with direct access to the internet your computer is given a copy of the TCP / IP program as well as every other computer that you deal with (messages for example) or for information they to have a copy of TCP / IP. So let us address TCP/IP for a minute, TCP/IP is a two layer program, the higher of the two layers is the Transmission Control Protocol which manages the assembling of the message or file into a smaller packet. These are transmitted over the internet and received by a TCP layer which reconstructs the packet into the original message. The lower layer IP (Internet Protocol) deals with the address part of each packet so that it is routed to the proper destination. Every gateway computer on this network will check the address to see where to forward the message. TCP / IP utilizes the client / server model of communication, this...

...difficulties? The type of topology that would be used is an extended star network, since it will be connected to the office, which uses a star network topology. The device that would be used to overcome the cabling difficulties would be a Wireless Access Point, using a wireless router. We would need to buy Wireless NICs for each of the computers in the manufacturing areas. In case 3-1 the type of network it would be, is a client based model. It is a client based model since there is no centralized server. Old-Tech’s computers transfer large amounts of files to each other on the network. Since any of the users can share their resources on their computer, each person needs determine what level of access other people have to their resources on their computer.

...Task 1 Home Office (50 marks) A) Explain, giving three reasons (each reason a paragraph in length), why the home office would not use a client-server network? -The three reasons why the home office would not use a client server network, because there are no servers in this network. Servers play a very important role in a client network since it is equipped with the hardware and software for people to share documents other sorts of files through it. Other reason for not using client network is because the home office is two small and only got 2 or 3 computers with no intention to maximize it there is no point of using a client network. Using that network would also slow down the speed of the networking system. Third reason why the client /server network should not be chosen as the network system is because of that it would add additional cost and the effort would be useless if a certain virus or some malicious software connects into the network system and infects all computers at the home office. B) Discuss the functions of the switch and the modem as used in the home office network. (Each device a paragraph). Switch- A switch can increase the number of peripherals used in your network or allow you to add computers to your network. It's an affordable and easy way to expand your network. Switch is also a telecommunication device that receives a message from any device connected to it and then transmits the message only to the device from which the message...

...Stevens CIS 175 – Introduction to Networking May 26, 2012 A nеtwоrk operating system (NOS) is the software that runs on a server and enables the server to manage data, users, groups, security, applications, and other networking functions. The primary reason for using networks is to enable clients to communicate and share resources efficiently. Most networks rely on server that exceeds the minimum hardware requirements suggested by the software vendor. To determine the optimal hardware for your servers, be sure to ask the following questions: • What kinds of applications will run on the server? • How many clients will connect to the server? • How much storage space will each user need? • How much downtime, if any, is acceptable? • What can the organization afford? Out of these questions the first one is the most important. For example, use can purchase an inexpensive, low-end server that runs Linux adequately and suffices for resource sharing and simple application services. However, to perform more advanced functions and run resources-intensive applications on your network, you would need to invest in a server that has significantly more processing power and memory. Every application comes with different processor, RAM, and storage requirements. Explain what network operating system you would suggest. The network operating system that I have chosen is The Window Server 2008 is the latest version of Microsoft’s NOS, released in February...

...EN1330 Client-Server Networking 2 Unit 1. Assignment 1 9/25/2014 A Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical distributed naming system for computers, services, or any resources connected to the internet or a private network. It associates various information with domain names assigned to each of the participating entitles. It translates easily memorized domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of locating computer services and devices worldwide. The best way that I have been able to explain it, it works like a phone book for the internet by translating hostnames into IP addresses. But unlike a phone book, the DNS can easily be updated and quickly. The internet maintains two principal namespaces, the domain name hierarchy and the Internet Protocol address spaces. A DNS name server is a server that stores the DNS records for a domain name, such as (A or AAA) records, name server records, and mail exchanger records. A DNS name server responds with answers to queries against its database. The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol is a Standardized networking protocol used in Internet Protocol networks for dynamically distributing network configuration parameters, such as IP addresses for interface and services. With DHCP computers request IP addresses and networking parameters automatically from a DHCP server, reducing the need for a network administrator or a user to configure these settings manually. DHCP is used by computers for requesting Internet...

...Architectures: Peer-to-Peer, Client/Server, and Web-based 3 Part 2: Propose One Architecture in Detail 4 Part 3: Examine and Explain the Role of Protocols for Your Proposed Architecture 5 Part 4: Explain and Detail the Supporting Infrastructure for the Proposed Architecture 6 References 7 Part 1: Examine the Three Architectures: Peer-to-Peer, Client/Server, and Web-based A peer-to-peer network (P2P) is a network where all computers, workstations, and/or terminals are treated equally, i.e. the permissions and access is leveled across the board, and any one of the computers in the network can become the host (Englander, 2014). A way I worked this into my life was, while deployed, I set up a network where all computers connected to that network could share information and files as needed, so long as they were given access to the network in the first place. It was a small group, about 8 points of connection, using TCP/IP to communicate between the terminals, and was effective, however, I think we would have experienced some ‘bogging down’ of the network if we increased the number of people that had access to it. Because of the innate security risk that P2P networks exhibit, no sensitive information was permitted to be stored or shared on this network for any reason. Client-server architecture is application based being installed a user’s computer or workstation (i.e. the ‘client’) and through that can make requests from the server, and save back to the server as needed. In this...

...Strayer University Week 10 Assignment 3: Business Intelligence and Data Warehouses CIS175008VA016-1154-001 Intro to Networking Professor Obi Ndubuisi June 14, 2015 For the company DesignIT, I would use a LAN type of network (for local-area network). This networks several computers, a mail (exchange) server, a database server and a file share server in one building and interconnects with each switch or backbone. I chose this for this small space because it is less than 100 square feet and is all within a single dwelling. This way the employees can all share their resources with one another, an intranet, database and printers. This network only needs a single modem with wireless capabilities and an optional access point located at the opposite end. I would recommend the wireless access-point to serve the conference room in case the client wants to set up teleconferences. We can even create an interface that when their computer finds the wireless network, a page would come up asking for their employee ID and password. This would also provide access for vendors and customers so they can have temporary access in order to have access to their files on Cloud or DropBox in order to contribute to DesignIT during their visit. Most businesses have these similar services and use ring topology or mesh topology. With ring topology there is an extra layer created, if one device fails you can pin-point the failure but the entire network would go down. DesignIT would only need...
