Overview
When you document a computer network, it is often necessary to describe the existing network structure with the help of schemes or diagrams. You must document the configuration, used protocols, logical structure of the network, addresses, and names of network objects.
Prompt
To complete this assignment, you must install or have access to a network diagramming tool. In this assignment, you will demonstrate your understanding of using a network diagramming tool to construct a basic network diagram. In the network diagramming tool, construct a basic network diagram consisting of the following components:
One router
One switch
One firewall
Three PCs
One server
Two printers
Switch to router and firewall
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
Proficient Use of Network Diagramming Tool: The diagram shows proficient use of shapes and a network diagramming tool to develop a proper network.
Diagram Construction: Present and identify each component, and ensure the construction of the diagram represents a basic network.
Resources To Create Diagram
-Draw.io
-Visme
-Lucidchart
What to Submit
Ensure each component in your diagram is visually represented and communication between each device is established. Choose shapes in your network diagram to represent each component and ensure each is properly labeled. Submit your assignment as a PDF, PNG, or JPEG file. Alternately, you may embed the graphics in a DOC, DOCX, or Google Doc file.
