Assignment - High level design for an SME network and VPN services
Learning Outcomes
The purpose of this assignment is to develop requirements and design a network which can be implemented with VPN services for an SME (small and medium sized enterprises). The design of network and service must be specific so that it can be used for a purpose of a quotation and proposal from vendors.
After the assignment, students are expected to learn not only the knowledge and current technical aspects of VPN but also research, data collection, analysis and writing skills, which are very important and help them for study. Students will be able to understand what aspects and contents are required for requirements too.
The following ULOs are covered;
– c. Develop architectural VPN designs for small, medium and large businesses and corporations
– d. Report on the health of the existing VPN architecture, solution, data, application, and technology
– e. Investigate and justify the appropriate design and solution for different organisations
– f. Analyse and report on the current and future state of the management of VPN infrastructure and its technologies
– g. Define a roadmap process to transform the VPN architecture to support long-term organisational goals
– h. Implement a process to support the administration and the management of VPN
