take this space to thank everyone who was involved with this project.
Thanks to our professor in Data Networking, Sir Reagan B. Ricafort, whose encouragement,
guidance and support from the initial to the final level enabled us to develop an understanding of
the subject.
Thanks to our family, for their patience and understanding during this project and all our
projects.
Most importantly, we would like to thank God, for giving us the skills, talents, and opportunity to
work in such a challenging and exciting project.

NETWORK DESCRIPTION
Data Networking Page 1
NetCom is a call center office in Makati. It offers higher results, through highly skilled
people, superior operational excellence, differentiated environment and customer feedback
insights. It is the most famous and the most populated office because of its performance
categories workers including vertical expertise, reliability, innovation, trust, flexibility and
customization.
When this company was just starting, Mr. Ricafort, the owner of NetCom, wants to have
500 computers in his 10 storey office building. He give us the authority to decide the best
design.
The proponents planned to choose Cisco as the router and switch, Zyxel as the
DSL modem, (tapos isip ng kung anong brand ng cp natin na gagamitin, at size ng
cables)
Cisco IOS Software is the industry-leading and is the most widely deployed network
system software. The Cisco IOS Software platform is implemented on most Cisco hardware
platforms, including switches, routers, and similar Cisco IOS–based network devices. It is
the embedded software architecture in all Cisco devices and is also the operating system of
Cisco Catalyst switches.
PRINCIPLES APPLIED
2.0 Principles Applied
2.1.1.1 LAN
LAN is a short term for local area network. It is a common
type of network found in home offices, small businesses, and large enterprises.
LANs can vary widely in their size. It might consist of only two computers in a
home office or small business, or it might include hundreds of computers in a
large corporate office or multiple buildings.
2.1.1.2 WAN
WAN is a short term for wide area network. It is a data
communications network that operates beyond the geographical scope of a
LAN. WANs use facilities provided by a service provider, or carrier, such as a
telephone or cable company. They connect the locations of an organization to
each other, to locations of other organizations, to external services, and to
remote users. WANs generally carry a variety of traffic types, such as voice,
data, and video.
2.1.1.3 MAN
MAN is a short term for metropolitan area network. It is a
LAN to LAN network. (e.g. whole city)
2.2.1 Simplex
In simplex mode the communication can take place in one
direction. The receiver receives the signal from the transmitting device. It
is a one-way transmission.
The OSI reference model is the primary model for network communications. The
early development of LANs, MANs, and WANs was chaotic in many ways. Companies
realized that they could save money and gain productivity by using networking technology,
they added networks and expanded existing networks as rapidly as new network
technologies and products were introduced.
The OSI reference model, released in 1984, was the descriptive scheme that the ISO
created. It provided vendors with a set of standards that ensured greater compatibility and
interoperability between the various types of network technologies produced by companies
around the world. Although other models exist, most network vendors today relate their
products to the OSI reference model, especially when they want to educate customers on the
use of their products. The OSI model is considered the best tool available for teaching people
about sending and receiving data on a network.
The OSI reference model has seven layers. This separation of networking functions is
called layering. The OSI reference model defines the network functions that occur at each
layer. In addition, the OSI reference model describes how data travels from application
programs (for example, spreadsheets), through a network medium, to an application program
located in another computer, even if the sender and receiver are connected using different
network media.
