Create a network for a company that sells shoes. Describe the hardware needed and the size of the network (PAN, LAN, WAN) and make a flow chart or mind map of the network. The description should be at least 500 words. The flow chart or mind map should have at least 12 boxes, each box should be labeled and the flow noted.

To create a network for the company that sells shoes will required WAN that is Wide Area Network as the company can have several LAN (Local Area Network) inside the main network so, the size of the network will be WAN(Wide Area Network).
Here is the list of Hardware needed to build WAN,
1. Modems:: The Modems are used for modulation and demodulation. This needs to convert digital signal to analog signal which should be transfer over a telephonic network as WAN uses telephonic network to travel in wide area. There are several modems which perfom in different way to convert a signal based on the performance of the modem and the way it perform as receiver or transmitter. Based on the way it perform it is categorized as internal or external.
Internal modem can be place inside the computer in Industry Architecture Slot and Peripheral Component Interconnect slot and because of this, it does not need extra place and cable outside computer. But internal modem are bit difficult to configure as it need several things to configure.
External modem have some advantages over the internal modem as it provide the status light for power on/off, connected/disconnected, data transmission on/off and it can be easily attach and configured. But this modem required external power plug and place, it also required cable to connect to the computer. To run external modem we required serial port to the machine as well and to configure it, drivers also needed.
2. Adapters:: To connect the number of devices in a network we require adapters. Adapter can be use to connect difference modules in a network. Important adapter needed are ISDN and DSL, an ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) or DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) these are nothing but terminal adapter as it connect the terminals used in the network. If the line is digital it does not modulate/demodulate the signals.
These adapters are also internal and external same as modem, thus it is upto the requirement how we want it. DSL adapter require at both the terminals.
3. CPE:: This equipment used to hold the all devices together and from this we will come to know the devices present in the network and required devices. we can say it a assembly point of required hardware in network. CPE stands for Customer Premises Equipment. These are used for processing transmissions on WAN links such as X.25, FrameRelay and etc.
Coming to the basic hardware requirement they are,
For Point to point:: Requires a minimum of 2GB and more RAM, minimum of 16 GB and more disk space and 2 Central Processing Unit(CPU) Cores.
For Multisite:: Requires 1GB additional RAM per remote peer, minimum of 16GB additional disk space per remote peer. If possible add 1 CPU Core per remote peer for good network performance.

  3. ithin the Discussion Board area, write 400–600 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas. The discussion assignment for this week will be about the fundamental design of a network and the problems associated with requirements definition for networks. One of the most difficult challenges in any system development project is defining the requirements. Conduct research using the library and Internet to find information about network requirements elicitation and analysis. Then, answer the following: What are some of the key factors to consider when gathering requirements for a network? What difficulties might you encounter in this process, and how might you mitigate the problems? Discuss some methods you might use to ensure that the requirements are acceptable before moving on to the design stage of the network implementation process.
