Cisco Systems CCNA 2 manual Scenario and Phase 1 Project Description

Scenario and Phase 1: Project Description

A company has several people responsible for maintaining various sections of the internetwork infrastructure. Many technicians have done an excellent job with the small portion for which they are responsible.

One of the other network associates who was responsible for a larger portion of the infrastructure suddenly left the company. This left redesign and implementation on this portion of the internetwork unfinished. A technician is given the task to complete the design and implementation of the unfinished network.

After taking home the documentation to study over the weekend, it is apparent to the technician why the network associate left suddenly. The few documents that existed were poorly written. So during the weekend the technician reconstructs the diagram above from an existing diagram that was found. It represents the new internetwork design. It shows the planned routers, hubs/switches, circuits, and the servers/workstations at each site. The server at the Center site is a file server accessed only by workstations on this internetwork. The workstation at the Center site is used to manage all routers on the internetwork.

After returning to work Monday morning, the technician presents the new diagram to the Network Infrastructure Team Leader that assigned the project. After discussion, it is determined that new documentation must be developed for the project. The Team Leader, the instructor, must approve the documentation at each phase of the process. Use the following information to implement the network.
