Title: Final Project
Course: KVCC CPT207 > Section: Assignments

In this project you will be tasked with planning and designing a network as well as configuring a server to manage it. Below are some guidelines to get you thinking about this project.

Design:

1.        Choose a IP range that will accommodate around 500 addresses

2.        Select a custom subnet for that range that will assist you in narrowing down the address space. Write this in normal and CIDR notation.

3.        Draw a network Diagram that illustrates the structured cabling in a building that is three stories and has the entrance facility on the first floor.

4.        Declare what cabling will be used and where it will be run and why that cable type was chosen. What speeds will you run?

5.        Identify what network equipment will be necessary for this build. IE switches and routers.

6.        List how many servers you would plan on using and why you selected that amount.

7.        Are you running any special equipment such as POE?

8.        How will you plan for redundancy?

9.        Design a disaster recovery strategy.

10.    Develop a plan for expansion.

Management:

1.        You are tasked with building a server system with the following configuration based on the business you selected above:

a.       Create a Server 2012 Instance

i.     Install Active Directory

1.        Name the domain after the business (if this is a real business you are examining then use that otherwise create your own)

2.        Create OUs based off the company structure (Explain why you broke the organization up in this manner)

3.        Create a few user accounts within each of the OU’s

4.        Create a group for each OU and link the above users to the applicable area.

ii.     Install DNS

1.        Setup a forward and reverse lookup zone and name it again after the business

iii.     Install DHCP

1.        Setup your scope to be accommodate the range and IP address information that you determined in the design phase.

iv.     Configure Group Policy

1.        Select One of the OU’S and create a group policy for it. Go through and select some restrictions that are applicable. Once this is done write up a brief summary listing what you set and why you chose to do so.

v.     Install IIS

1.        Create a small html file and post it in your C:\Program Files\Windows Server\Bin\webapps\site folder

a.       The file should be named index.html

b.       Inside the file you should have this for code:

i.     <p>Welcome to the NAMEOFBUSINESS Website</p>
