Network design is as much of an art as it is a science. One of the necessary skills as a network designer includes creating diagrams, specifically, logical, physical, and wireless diagrams. For this exercise, each individual student is to develop their organization’s logical diagram (described in the case for the Network Proposal) using Microsoft Visio and develop appropriate narrative.
So, what constitutes a good quality logical diagram? Well, there are several characteristics:
As an introduction, you need to identify the current situation and the issues with the existing system that need to be addressed as well as the steps necessary to provide a solution for the issue. Now, you can begin to develop the narrative for the logical design. Why did you make some of the design choices that you made? Why are you subnetting using multiple routers? Why are you segmenting using VLANs? What is the logical topology of your network and what does that mean to a business leader/decision maker? Describe in plain English/business terms how your recommended design addresses the business needs stated in the case. Do not explain what can be seen in the diagram. The diagram can be observed and a lot of useful information comes from it. But, the diagram does not tell the reader why design choices were made. That is your job as the professional and the narrative is how you convey that information. Once complete, insert your narrative before the diagram. Tables and figures such as your diagram should never be introduced first. Rather, they should be referenced (i.e. as in “…see Figure 1: Logical Diagram) in the narrative and then introduced after the first paragraph in which they are mentioned or at the top of the next page.
NOTE: This is the first part of an assignment that continues to build. In other words, for the next assignment, you do not need to create a new document. Rather, you simply need to post the same document that have continued to build. So, treat this as a formal proposal. Include a cover page, headings, etc.
