Health Systems, Inc. also wants you to create a design document about how to build remote access to their organization. For this assessment, you will explain how to design the LAN at a secondary branch site and discuss how it will interconnect through a WAN to the main Health Systems hospital site.
For the two LANs, one at the main hospital site and the second LAN at the branch site you need to write about the following. You will also describe your design of the WAN technologies connecting the two LANs.
Describe the WAN technology used and the bandwidth offered.
Describe the location of the router and switches.
Describe the routing protocol used on your LAN and on the WAN.
Provide reasoning for choosing the switching and routing, WAN transmission, and topology.
Sample Solution
The Wide Area Network (WAN) technology used to connect the two LANs is MPLS. This technology supports low cost connections over long distances and offers faster speeds than DSL or Cable Internet services. The bandwidth of the WAN connection will depend on the requirements of Health Systems, Inc. as determined by their usage patterns.
