You have been hired as part of the networking team at UMUC. After completing orientation and training, your manager calls you into a meeting to discuss your first project.
The university has recently leased a single building in Adelphi, Maryland. The building will house faculty and administrative offices, classrooms, a library, and computer labs. Security is important at UMUC, as the university has a responsibility to protect student and employee data as well as any intellectual property that UMUC maintains on its servers and computers.
IT management would like to review multiple proposals to determine how best to address the university’s specific security issues. As a junior network engineer, you are asked to prepare a network proposal that addresses how best to establish a secure network infrastructure to support university operations in the newly-leased building. The proposal requires three submissions covering network design, network addressing and security, and network customization and optimization.
