...Associate Level Material Appendix E TCP/IP Network Planning Table Refer to appendix E1. Identify the problems with the TCP/IP network and complete the table. Problem | Explanation of Proposed Solution | Scenario: Two of the network segments pictured will not communicate with each other or any other network segments.The two network segments in question will not communicate because the gateway address assigned to the workstations in each segment are incorrect. | The easiest and quickest solution is to reconfigure the router that connects the two segments and make the router's interfaces match the gateway addresses assigned to the computers in each segment. The other solution would be to change the gateway addresses on the computers to match the existing interface configurations on the router. This could be accomplished through the use of a DHCP server or through manual configuration.Resource Needed: No resources are needed for this resolution unless DHCP is requested/required. In such a case a DHCP server would need to be installed and properly configured. | Scenario: Two of the network segments pictured will not communicate with each other or any other network segments.The two network segments in question will not communicate because the gateway address assigned to the workstations in each segment are incorrect. | The easiest and quickest solution is to reconfigure the router that connects the two segments and make the router's interfaces match the gateway addresses...

...Strategic and Financial Planning University of Phoenix FIN / 370 September 9, 2009 Strategic and Financial Planning Every organization should have both a strategic plan and a financial plan. Although these two seem have two different purposes, they are both needed in order for the company to survive. Strategic planning is the process of determining a company’s long-term goals and then identifying the best approach for achieving those goals (Investor Words, 2009). Financial planning is the long-term process of wisely managing finances so you can achieve the goals while at the same time negotiating the financial barriers that inevitably arise in every stage of the company’s goals (FPA, 2009). Upon examining the relationship between strategic and financial planning, we will see how Quizno’s, Family Focus Lawndale and the LaSalle Network each utilize strategic and financial planning. Quizno’s Strategic Planning Initiative Quizno’s is a gourmet sub shop that sells different kinds of oven-toasted sandwiches. At Quizno’s, the store managers are always coming u with new plans and ideas to bring in new customers.

...Strategic Planning for eServices1 A Short Tutorial for the Beginners2 Amjad Umar, Ph.D. Senior Technical Advisor, United Nations-GAID Executive Summary Strategic planning of ICT (Information and Communication Technologies)-based services, abbreviated as eServices, is a crucial task for the public as well as private sectors. Given a strategic project (or an initiative), a strategic planning process identifies the main alternatives, the key business/technical issues involved in each alternative, and helps in evaluation and selection of the most viable alternatives before initiating the project. To succeed, the strategic planning process must explore a large number of people, process and technology issues and eliminate surprises. This is not easy because the task of eservices planning in the digital age is considerably complicated due to the changing business and technical landscape and an ever-growing body of knowledge. This short tutorial gives a quick overview of the vast body of knowledge that entails a typical strategic ICT planning process and presents a conceptual framework for further exploration of this important area. 1. An Example – eServices for a City Ms Fran Kuye is mayor of a city with one million inhabitants, located in a developing country.She wants to use the knowledge gained from her MPA (Master of Public Administration) to transform her city to a “Digital City” that heavily relies on eservices to support its citizens.

...National or state rural planning processes are often “top down”, technically sophisticated and, hence not geared to participation from local communities, those most affected. Involvement of local government is increasingly seen as being important to rural transport planning and engaging them in this process requires a balancing of the technical requirements of the process with local objectives and capacities. A Rural Transport infrastructure (RTI) planning process must be transparent and easily understood by local government planners who may have little grasp of the underpinning economics. The objective of this case study is to describe the development of a Local Government Transport Masterplan (LGTMP). 1. AN APPROACH TO LOCAL GOVERNMENT INVESTMENT PLANNING In most developing countries, decentralization has meant that local governments are increasingly made fully responsible for the provision of local services, including health, education, as well as local roads. Concurrently, national or state road planning processes are often "top-down" and technically sophisticated, as well as ignoring the potential for local governments and communities to participate. The involvement of local governments, however, has been shown to be a critical element to the success of the RTI planning process. In practice, however, most local governments still rely heavily on central government engineers and economist, or externally funded consultants, to assist them in road planning process or to set local...

...2 Value Chain Management The theoretical background is defined around the central term value chain. Chapter 2 presents research concepts to manage the value chain structured by their area of specialization either on supply, demand or values. Secondly, within an integrated framework, the results of the specialized disciplines are combined with the objective to manage sales and supply by values and volume. Value chain management is defined and positioned with respect to other authors’ definitions. A value chain management framework is established with a strategy process on the strategic level, a planning process on the tactical level and operations processes on the operational level. These management levels are detailed and interfaces between the levels are defined. Since the considered problem is a planning problem, the framework serves for structuring planning requirements as well as the model development in the following chapters. 2.1 Value Chain Value chain as a term was created by Porter (1985), pp. 33-40. A value chain “disaggregates a firm into its strategically relevant activities in order to understand the behavior of costs and the existing and potential sources of differentiation”. Porter’s value chain consists of a “set of activities that are performed to design, produce and market, deliver and support its product”. Porter distinguishes between • primary activities: inbound logistics, operations, outbound logistics, marketing and sales, service in the core value...

Why is it critical to develop a time-phased baseline for a planning project and managing its performance? Time phased baseline is the distribution of activities, tasks, milestones, and resources over an appropriate time scale for the scheduled completion of a plan, program, or project. A time-phased baseline is critical for planning a project because it allows the project team to visually examine the project from a time sequence and cost (Larson and Gray 2011, 459). The phase-baseline begins with the breakdown of individual activities or tasks. This is condensed or group into a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). A project manager or its stakeholder is able to visualise the WBS of activities in relation to the timeline of the project. A task is normally subject to occur during a business day. If you execute the planning process on...

Management organization within a company in Show Business takes planning, organizing, staffing, leading, and controlling functions to provide a quality production and ensure audience satisfaction. Planning The company I work for is called ‘NETworks Presentations’, and they are a company that produces Broadway tours. NETworks required extensive planning to become one of the largest producers of Broadway tours in the United States. Planning is a systematic process in which managers make decisions about future activities and the key goals that the organization intends to pursue (Baack, Reilly, and Minnick 2014). Further more, according to Baack et al. (2014), “business organizations are founded with a major guiding principle in mind. A company's mission statement expresses a clear and concise reason for the organization's existence (p. 2.1).” Simply put, one of the foundations of planning any successful business is creating a mission statement. For example, the mission statement of NETworks Presentations is: MANAGEMENT IN MY WORKPLACE 3 NETworks Presentations is uncompromisingly...

...management require centralized organization and access of most company resources. Companies prefer to spend less but get more power and performance for their investment. Management requires newer application with short response times while increasing overall productivity. (Business Data Communications, Sixth Edition, 2009, p. 58). The corporation will have to decide whether they require a LAN, Local Area Network, if the corporation only needs their network to share resources within a building, (Local Area Network Technologies, 2012). The corporation may want to use MAN, Metropolitan Area Network, if they have multiple building that need to share a network. An example would be a college campus. (Metropolitan Area Network, 2012). The information requirement of management leads us to the three points of the initial roll out phase and network security. The points of initial roll out are plan, analyze, and implementation. (eWeek, 2004). The first point of initial roll out is plan. The planning process is a very critical part of the roll out process. During the planning point, this is where the developers have to take in consideration the growth and acceleration of the computer industry and how this growth effects the computing and information service needs for large corporations. The corporate computing world demands environments that “ uses client/server computing with intelligent graphical desktops and workstations, which communicate with local and divisional personal computing...

...The Operating System – IP #2 Akeem Knight American Intercontinental University Online The installation planning issues relating to a number of servers and controllers are a bit complicated to understand for those that are not familiar with them. I will do my best to incorporate them into a manual in which the user will be able to easily see what happens through each phase of the planning, the issues that may occur, and how to deal with those issues. Domain controllers are defined as servers the reacts to authenticity security requests within a Windows server domain. These controllers deal with logging in and other system feature that may require a password. When planning and installing domain controllers, it always a good idea to install a minimum of two to three of them. By doing so, it reduces the probability of having to restore Active Directory database from the backup drives. If flexibility is necessary have, then the user should refer to putting file sharing programs and services onto the servers. After this is completed, it is recommended that the domain controllers should only be used for authenticity. When this is done, it allows the servers to run much quicker and more efficient, and it makes the computer work less hard to get the jobs you want done (Lewis, 2012). Next on the list is the DNS server. DNS stands for Domain Name System is a technology that manages internet and website domains. This system enables users to insert the name of a website into a computer...

...Introduction The manager of a small mobile wireless network has hired a consulting group to field concerns about expanding his network in the interests of his employer who wants to offer a more reliable service experience and offer more up-to-date multimedia services. These inquiries are in an effort to reduce network quality of service issues and system availability to his conventional subscribers. To combat these performance fluctuations, the management of the system engages in a philosophy of over provisioning the network for compensation. These efforts are intended to corral user loyalty by providing service with enhanced quality and a better multi-featured experience for his customers and to migrate future subscribers to his already established customer base. Problem Statement The mobile wireless organization has been trying to increase its subscriber base by offering multi-feature data services such as Internet access, e-mail access, music and video streaming and also video conferencing. The network, however, has been plagued by simple voice communication issues such as dropped calls and network availability. When calls can be completed they are often hampered by quality of service issues that make the calls unintelligible. The purpose of the consultation is to rectify these voice quality issues by determining if they stem from network capacity and data transmission problems or if there exists a condition where there is improper coverage to service his well-established...
