Document Title Summative Assessment 2 Version V5 Date Feb2025 Owner HCT Page 1 Task 1 LO3: Describe the operation of Local Area Networks (LANs) and the functionality of the switch. Performance Criteria: PC3.1 Describe Local Area Network topologies PC3.2 Configure basic switch settings to meet network requirements. PC3.3 Configure a switch using security best practices in a small to medium-sized network. LO4: Demonstrate connecting networks with routers and how routed networks transmit data. Performance Criteria: PC4.1 Configure a router to route between multiple directly connected networks. PC4.2 Configure static routes to enable connectivity in a small to medium-sized network PC4.3 Troubleshoot static and default route configurations Assessment Summary: This Skills Assessment (SA) focuses on Learning Outcomes (LO3 and LO4) related to Local Area Networks (LANs), switch functionalities, router configurations, and routed network data transmission. Part 1 - students will describe LAN topologies and create diagrams Part 2- involves initializing devices by configuring IPv4 addressing for LANs and WANs based on Summative Assessment 1- PC2.3 Part 3- students will configure end devices, switch(s), and router(s), emphasizing security settings and static and default routes. The scenario centers on a provided Packet Tracer file ("a-LO3-4-Packet Tracer-StudentID.pkt"). Part 4- students will troubleshoot static and default route issues in a different Packet Tracer file ("b-LO4-Troubleshoot-problem-StudentID.pkt"), addressing problems reported by PC2 related to server and PC1 connectivity. The assessment will evaluate students' ability to apply theoretical knowledge in a practical network configuration and troubleshooting context, emphasizing hands-on skills in LAN and routed network management. Document Title Summative Assessment 2 Version V5 Date Feb2025 Owner HCT Page 2 Scenario: GlobalTech, a multinational technology company specializing in cloud services, is expanding its operations in the Middle East, focusing on the UAE. They plan to set up three new regional offices in Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and Dubai. The expansion aims to enhance service delivery and reduce latency for their Middle Eastern clients. Each office will have its local LAN setup for internal employees, and WAN links will interconnect these offices for resource sharing, collaboration. Objective: To design a scalable and secure network that supports the company's operations in Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and Dubai, ensuring reliable connectivity between the offices. Part 1: Describe Local Area Network Topologies Step 1-PC 3.1:Fill in the table below (select minimum of three LAN topologies: Topology name Describe the Topology Usage Create a Diagram (using any available tool) (minimum of three) Star Star topology is a network setup where all devices connect to a central hub or switch. It is commonly used in LANs due to its easy management, high performance, and fault isolation—if one device fails, the rest remain unaffected Bus A bus topology is a network configuration in which a single backbone cable or communication line is shared by every device. For small networks, it is easy to use and reasonably priced, however collisions may occur. Document Title Summative Assessment 2 Version V5 Date Feb2025 Owner HCT Page 3 Mesh Every device in a network with a mesh topology is connected to every other device, providing high redundancy and dependability. Tree A hierarchical network structure called tree topology blends aspects of bus and star topologies. It is made up of several star networks that are joined by a core backbone cable. Ring In a network configuration known as ring topology, every device is connected to precisely two other devices, creating a complete loop. Data can be unidirectional or bidirectional, moving in one or both ways. Step 2:Complete the table with the required information from the previous summative assessment 1 -PC2.3 to allocate IP addresses efficiently, ensuring no overlap and optimizing the network's scalability and security.
