![Term paper involves putting together the various concepts
learned throughout this course. Tasked with designing the most
secure network possible, keeping in mind the goal of supporting
three (3) IT services: email, file transfer (centralized), and
VPN. The first step is to design a single network capable of
supporting there three (3) different services. Once you have
fully designed your network, you will need to provide three (3)
workflow diagrams explaining how your designed network
handles the three (3) different transactions. The first is an
internal user sending an email using his / her corporate email
address to a user on the Yahoo domain with an arbitrary address
of
[email protected]
The second workflow diagram should show a user initiating an
FTP session from inside your network to the arbitrary site of
ftp.netneering.com. The third workflow is an externally located
employee initiating a VPN session to corporate in order to
access files on the Windows desktop computer, DT-Corp534-
HellenS, at work.
Write a ten (10) page paper in which you complete the
following three (3) Parts. Note: Please use the following page
breakdown to complete your assignment:
Overall network diagram: One (1) page
Datapath diagrams: Three (3) pages (one for each diagram)
Write-up: six (6) pages
Part 1
Using Microsoft Visio or its open source alternative, create a
diagram showing the overall network you’ve designed from the
user or endpoint device to the Internet cloud, and everything in
between, in which you:
Follow the access, core, distribution layer model.
Include at a minimum:
Authentication server (i.e. Microsoft Active Directory)
Routers
Switches (and / or hubs)](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/termpaperinvolvesputtingtogetherthevariousconceptslearnedth-221204072359-6cb2e8a2/85/Term-paper-involves-putting-together-the-various-concepts-learned-th-docx-1-320.jpg)
![Local users
Remote users
Workstations
Files share (i.e. CIFS)
Mail server
Web servers (both internal and external)
Firewalls
Internet cloud
Web proxy
Email proxy
FTP server (for internal-to-external transport)
Explain each network device’s function and your specific
configuration of each networking device.
Design and label the bandwidth availability or capacity for each
wired connection.
Part 2
Using Microsoft Visio or its open source alternative, create a
Datapath Diagram for the following scenario:
Local user sends email to a Yahoo recipient. Local (corporate)
user having email address
[email protected]
sends an email to
[email protected]
Document and label the diagram showing protocols and path of
the data flow as data traverses through your network from
source to destination.
Include path lines with arrows showing directions and layer 1,
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 (OSI) protocols that are used for each flow.
Show user authentication when necessary.
Using Microsoft Visio or its open source alternative, create a
Datapath Diagram for the following scenario:
Local user, Jonny Hill, transfers file using ftp through the
Internet to another company’s site (
ftp.netneering.com
). He has to access the secure shell using his active directory
credentials to authenticate to the ftp server (linux running](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/termpaperinvolvesputtingtogetherthevariousconceptslearnedth-221204072359-6cb2e8a2/85/Term-paper-involves-putting-together-the-various-concepts-learned-th-docx-2-320.jpg)

Explain how your overall design protects the organization from both inside and outside attacks. Give examples. Explain how your layered design compensates for possible device failures or breaches in network security. Determine whether any possible bottlenecks exist in your design. Explain how to make the file transfer process more secure. Part 3 Use at least three (3) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality
