The business sells to retail and wholesale customers as well as ordinary customers. They want to be involved in internet sales as well. As of now the business employs 86 people with a future growth of 10%. There is no network infrastructure in place; therefore a new network system will be installed.

Objective
Retail/Wholesale Sales has requested network solutions to install and configure a new fully switched Local Area Network (LAN).This will allow the company to handle online transactions, phone transactions as well as customer walk-ins. The upgrade will also improve the communications department to handle larger volumes of customer support. The improvements will also take into consideration the building location to allow for extreme temperature and humidity changes. Current customer concerns are: Ensuring secure connections between areas of the building. Allowing for a 10% expansion in the near future. Ensuring that all locations have access to software needed for day to day operations. Wireless access for remote workstations. Internet access Web server for hosting company website and sales.

Scope
The servers will reside in the basement of the building. The servers will be rack-mounted dell power edge R310, R415, T410, and R510. Disaster recovery will be handled by dell power vault 2000 tape library, using automated tape backup and archiving. Tripp Lites SmartPro 1500RMXL2U 1500VA rack mounted uninterruptible power supply will be placed in all racks for the servers, routers, and switches. The servers will be placed in the server room inside of cabinets. Verizon will be the service provider. There will be 86 workstations installed and configured on location which will be the dell Vostro all in one desktop. These workstations will have Windows 7 professional preinstalled and be networked via 10/100/1000 Ethernet. Five dell precision m4500 mobile workstation laptops were purchased and issued to management from the IT department and will also be preinstalled with windows 7 professional. Power connect W-651 wireless access controller will be installed, it has an integrated single radio, dual band 802.11 b/g/n wireless access point that delivers wire-like performance up to 300 Mbps data rates. All workstations will be configured to log in to the servers located in the server room. Four Dell 2155cn multifunction color laser printers will be installed. Network solutions will configure and install the 3 Cisco Routers and 3 Dell Switches that will be used for the LAN connections. Each location will be wired for CAT 6 Unshielded Twisted Pair Ethernet and configured with dell power connect 6248 48 port gigabit Layer 3 Ethernet Switches and Cisco 1841 integrated services routers. Network solutions will configure the Network to be a class B TCP/IP based network addressed in the 186.32.0.1 186.32.0.62 (Call Center/Training), 186.32.0.68 182.32.0.126 (Retail/Internal), and the remaining five subnets will be used by the phones, and printers with a subnet mask of 255.255.192.0. IEEE 802.3 and 802.11 standards will be the only protocols used in the installation of this network. All of the standards set down in ANSI/TIA 568 C and 569 B, where applicable, will be strictly adhered to for this installation. The R310 Server will be configured with Active Directory, DHCP, DNS, security, and file/print services. The R415 server will be configured for web applications, to include Microsoft SharePoint. The T410 server will be configured as the mailbox, and storage server, with the capabilities of handling up to 200 mailboxes at 4GB each. The R510 server will be configured as the database server. All servers will be configured with Microsoft Windows Small Business server 2011. All cables, panels, and network nodes will be colored-coded and labeled according to the ANSI/TIA-606-A standard.

On each workstation Microsoft Office 2010, Microsoft One Note 2010, Live Meeting, and Microsoft Communicator installed for day to day productivity. IntelliTrack Software, Inventory Control, Asset Tracking, & Warehouse Management Software will be installed on the warehouse workstations. Norton Antivirus 2011 security suite will be installed for system security. To allow for updates all network and security software the network MUST have access to the internet. In the event that internet access is not available, the customer will be responsible for keeping the Anti-Virus definitions and security software up to date. All users will be assigned network accounts and Email boxes. Since the internet is going to be used, Network solutions will additionally configure the Kismet/Wire shark packet sniffers, Nessus Vulnerability Scanner, and OSSEC for the Intrusion Detection and Protection System (IDPS) to protect the network from internet threats. Upon the completion of this installation any support needed for the software installed can be handled by our phone support. Network solutions will also provide a packet of suggested procedures for administration and security. The Servers and workstations MUST be placed within 6 Foot of a 110volt grounded outlet. The Servers and workstations MUST be placed within 10 Feet of a Switch or CAT6 Network drop location. The servers MUST be placed in a secure, well-ventilated area. Internet access is REQUIRED for automatic Software Updates. Labor will be billed at 40% of cost. Customer MUST be properly licensed for all software that will be installed. Full time 24/7 network internet access is required to send and receive internet email. The Switches and Routers will need to be installed on a shelf, in the Telecommunications rooms.
