 OVERVIEW
This simulation connects both the Computer Science department and new girl's
hostel to share a network.
This process is carried out by connecting the Computer Science department which
have three (3) laboratories (hardware, software and cybersecurity) to a switch
and then connect the switch to the main server that serves the entire network.
The New girl’s hostel is connected to the switch of the department of Computer
Science by an ethernet cable which span through down to the new girl’s hostel
that would have the capacity of accommodating over 600 students.

REQUIREMENTS AND COSTS

S/N Equipment Cost
1 Switches #70,000 per switch (4
needed)
2 Wireless Routers #21,500 per router (9
needed)
3 Ethernet cables #5,000 per meter
4 Server #200,000 (Dell Server)

CONNECTIVITY
Since the main server which is the host has to be connected to the Computer
Science department key, and all other networks will have to get their resources
from the computer science key. As mentioned earlier, communications will come
from the computer science department to all laboratories such as Software lab,
Hardware lab and Cyber Security lab, and all the labs will have a wireless router
that will make communication smooth.
Furthermore, the new girls' hostel will be connected to the Computer Science
department and will have to expand switches and Wi-Fi routers connected to
each key so that it can serve all 600 students who want to contact it.
