sharing of resources and information among interconnected devices. In the 1960s, the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) started funding the design of the Advanced Research Projects Agency Network (ARPANET) for the United States Department of Defense. It was the first computer network in the World. Development of the network began in 1969, based on designs developed during the 1960s. Most networks use distributed processing, in which a task is divided among multiple computers. Instead of one single

the specifications it will take to get this office’s network up, running, and able to support the equipment, software, and databases they are trying to implement, while also giving them the ability to communicate with their Main office. We will also have to ensure that what we create is very secure, and follows all HIPPA requirements for the network and data storage. We will go over the networks design including topology, Network Interface Cards (NICs), network operating system (NOS), cabling, where

different LANs need to be developed. The project discusses the cabling specifications, wide area network design; network protocols; network remote access; network business applications; and network security. For the cabling specifications, the physical position of the various systems and offices are considered. Because of the need for interconnection among computers in different offices, the cables specified address the need for protection against electromagnetic interference. The design of the local

upgrade their Information Technology (IT) capability beginning with their networks. The characteristics, components, and topology are evaluated to properly identify the needs for the new network design. The plan includes converting to a Wireless Local Area Network otherwise known as (WLAN), installing a Voice over Internet Protocol otherwise known as (VoIP), and design a Wide Area Network (WAN). The plan also includes the hospital maintaining all Macintosh® computers. Administration/Clinical
