Hello,

I need to write a project by using question 2 and 3 from the following attach file. The project also need to use data from 2nd pages. [Teacher's Note: Use this link to submit the last two questions on your Research Project. These answers should be in the form of a letter to the President of TaxesRUS.]

 

CIS 345 LAN / WAN Research ProjectSpring 20171. You have just begun working as a networking consultant withMTI Technologies Inc.One of your first tasks is to help troubleshoot a small Ethernet network at a tax preparationofficein the city of Chicago called Taxes-r-Us. The backbone of this network consists of sixhubs connected in a bus fashion. Three of the hubs service workgroups of 10 workstationseach. One of the hubs services two file servers and two shared printers.In anticipation of tax season and a heavier workload, the organization recently upgraded itsnetwork from 10BaseT to100BaseT. However, they have not seen any of the performanceincreases they expected.Before even visiting the firm, what can you suggest as reasons forthe less than optimal performance?Write a letter to the President of Taxes-r-Us explaining innon-technical terms why they are not seeing any performance improvements on their network(after they upgraded the network speed by a factor of ten). Your letter should also have anappendix (or attachment) where you will specify the network modifications necessary for a100BaseT operating environment. These network modifications should be very detailed andare intended for the Network Administrator at Taxes-r-Us.2.The network managers at the tax preparation office have followed your advice onreconfiguring the network, and as a result, the network is now running more smoothly.However, they have realized that their Internet connection is too slow.They have been usinga dial-up BRI ISDN connection. They want to spend no more than $250 per month on anInternet connection (not including installation fees).They also need a transmission method with fairly good security and a guarantee of adequatethroughput during the daytime hours.What solution can you recommend that will offer themthe most throughput at this cost?In describing the solution, you will need to include start-upcosts as well as monthly operation costs.3.The Internet connection you have selected for the tax preparation firm is working well.Recently, however, they have learned that their firm will be merging with another firm acrosstown (but also in the city of Chicago).They need a way to connect the two offices. They haveheard about using data lines to carry telephone conversations, and they are interested inadding that to their requirements for the data connection. Also, although they want theconnection to be reliable, they are not willing to spend the extra money for an extremely faulttolerant network.On the other hand,now that they have merged with another firm, they havethe means to pay up to $2000 per month for a connection.What solution do you suggest?Note:ApproximateCosts for various WAN technologies is included on the next page (as a starting point); you willneed to research current options. Your suggested solution should provide stat-up and operational costs.Your grade will depend on the clarity of the answers and the degree you substantiate the basis for your answerswith supporting materialfor the three sections above.Please note thatthis is an individual assignmentand you are encouraged to submit one weekly draft for reviewand comments. You will attain the best possible grade by timely implementing the suggested revisions.
