I have a data communications assignment.
The specifications are as follows
2 Your mission (The Scenario)
The Engineering School of a small Australian university is getting a new building. It has two floors; the building's architecture has been approved and the builders are about to start. The building is expected to be operational within six to twelve months.

On the Ground floor there are eight labs, a common area, and a lecture theatre.

The 1st floor has administrative and academic offices, shared offices for postgraduate students and other research staff, and two specialised research labs.

While the walls, floor and ceilings surfaces are being completed, subcontractors will install all networking cables according to layout specifications provided by the University's IT Service Centre, the architects' firm and structural engineers from the building company.

Then, office furniture and equipment will be delivered, and all areas will be fitted out.

Simplified drawings of the architects' plans are provided in the document below "Floor plans and other materials"(also linked here).

Some information about the build and layout:
The building

2 floors, 1080 sq. m. each

Ground floor

4 Computer labs (70 sq. m. each)

Each lab has capacity of 30 students : 20 desktops and 10 hot desks for personal, mobile machines

A lectern with a desktop machine, an IP telephone and a projector for the TA in each lab

4 specialised labs (70 sq. m. each)

20 student capacity

Up to 10 desktop computers in each

Students can bring their own machine

A lectern with a desktop machine, an IP telephone and a projector for the TA in each lab

The Tesla Lecture Theatre has a seating capacity of 150; area: 216 sq. m .

It has a lectern with a desktop machine, IP telephone and a projector

The lobby and hallway will be fitted with scattered seating and tables.

One networked multifunction printer for students and staff.

First floor

30 individual offices for the School academics equipped with desktop machines and IP telephones
2 shared offices (6 desks in each)
2 meeting rooms
3 school admin offices equipped with desktop machines and IP telephones
One networked multifunction printer for staff and postgraduate students.


You can assume that all offices on the 1st floor and all desks and lecterns in the labs have been provided with ethernet cabling.

There are no local servers. Any servers required by the School will be located within the campus data centre, in a different building. Physical layer connectivity to the campus data centre has been already provided via high bandwidth cabling. Part of your design should include any necessary devices within the School building to enable that.

3 Your tasks (The things you need to do)

The University IT Service Centre has decided to outsource the LAN's completion and has issued an Invitation to Tender (ITT).

Each tender submission is required to include a high-level design of the LAN (either physical OR logical topology diagram), risk assessment, scheduling and costing, among many other documents.

You and your company have decided to submit a bid and you have been tasked to generate part of the documentation as described in the tasks below.

3.1 [20 marks] LAN Design

The LAN's design should satisfy the needs of both students and staff. All stationary computers and IP telephony are expected to use wired connections.

All common areas should have good wireless coverage so that students and staff can work in various areas on their portable machines without interruption.

Draw a diagram of all machines and devices in the School of Engineering's LAN.

Clearly label all 2nd and 3rd layer devices that will be needed to provide internal and external connectivity; all subnets in the building should be clearly identified in your diagram.


It is expected that the diagram is accompanied with a short (1/2 to 1 page) description stating assumptions, decisions and a brief justification for these.

3.2 [10 marks]

Project Management:
Timeline, implementation plan and costing


As part of the tender documentation, based on the network diagram in Part 3.1 and the details provided in Part 2.


Put together a budget that includes costs for all equipment including desktop computers and displays, lecterns, IP phones, multifunction printers, network devices and labour costs for delivery, installation, LAN configuration and equipment, and LAN testing.

Propose a schedule in a Gantt chart clearly showing how long it would take for your team to complete the job (i.e. start and end date), the tasks and activities involved and their duration.


You have also been told that if you were to win the tender, you could start any time after 1 Sep 2024, and you should complete it by 1 Dec 2024.

Your company's other contracts


You really want to win this tender, but you should be realistic and provide an estimate as accurate as possible.

Moreover, there are several other jobs that you have planned to complete between 1 Sep and 1 Dec 2024.

Those are from several days to 2 weeks long but are flexible enough to be moved around:

Netowork testing and maintenance job in two offices in Homebush: 3 days and 1 day respectively.

Rewiring two small offices: 2 weeks each (Both companies have relocated and have changed the office layouts). The offices are located in North Sydney.


There may also be other jobs coming your way and you want to be as efficient as possible to accommodate those too.

3.3 [10 marks] Risk Assessment

Assemble an asset / control spreadsheet to identify and prioritise:

potential assets (physical and data / intellectual property / staff)

potential risks for those assets (1 or 2 risks per asset is ok)

One or two potential strategies to reduce the risk's likelihood or severity of the impact occurring.

Present this as a table like the example on the last page of the document "Floor plans and other materials", but do not use the rows and columns used there decide what rows and columns you need for this project.

Your asset / risk control spreadsheet might take up one page, but you can also use a second page to elaborate on your reasons / choices if you feel you need to provide further clarity

For instance:
How did you prioritise the assets? How did you identify potential risks? How did you come up with the different strategies for mitigation / avoidance of risk impacts?

3.4 [10 marks] Security and Privacy


Review the proposed network diagram in 3.1 to ensure that the solution meets the needs of both education and research conducted in the School in terms of secrecy, security and data privacy.

The researchers in the School conduct cutting edge research often in collaboration with external partners from both industry and academia.

Lab 2.1 is assigned for collaboration with a private sector partner with a strong patent portfolio and thus very protective of their IP.

Lab 2.2 is assigned for collaboration with the Australian Defence Force (ADF). Both collaborations are expected to run for at least five years, with a possibility to be extended.


Communication with partners is both in-person (on campus) and online; it takes various forms: meetings, email exchanges, video conferencing, presentations, and file uploads.


Explain how does your design in Part 3.1 address the above? Does anything need to be changed or added? How would any changes have impact on your cost estimates in Part 3.

2?


For example, if you need extra or more expensive equipment, revise the project management documentation, or highlight the changes that need to be made.

This section of your report should not need to be more than two pages long.

One page for the revised logical or physical diagram, and up to one page identifying what changes you have made, why you made those changes and/or additions to address the security and privacy requirements.

3.5 [5 marks] Code of Ethics


As part of your tender, you have been asked to advise the Tender Review Panel about certain boundaries and ethical obligations to consider.

As part of the ACS Code of Professional Ethics (links in the week 8 lecture section in iLearn), what would be good ethical considerations to bring to the attention of the Tender Review Panel? Specifically:

touch on four or more sub-points in the Code.


for each sub-point you have selected, outline what you would say to the Tender Review Panel to convince them of the importance / relevance of that point.
