Jan and Kim Levering have decided to expand their IT consulting business. They have leased space in a nearby building. The following are the details:

• They will have an entire floor that has the following:
  • a receptionist area
  • 2 offices (one for Jan and one for Kim)
  • a conference room
  • an office that will accommodate 15 cubes for their consultants
  • a computer room to house their server(s)
• They currently have 8 Windows XP systems set up in a workgroup

They would like you to develop a 2-phased plan. The first phase involves moving from the current office to the new office. In a 4-page report, you need to do the following:

• Diagram the network and identify the topology and components:
  • Their existing equipment is as follows:
    • 8 XP systems
      • 1 each in Jan and Kim’s offices
      • 6 systems cubes (1 per cube)
    • 1 Windows Server 2008 (standard edition) system in the computer room
    • 1 printer in the computer room
  • Include the following:
    • IP addressing scheme (use static addressing)
    • subnetting/supernetting
    • subnet mask for phase 1
• Provide an installation guide on how to set up the Windows Server 2008 system and the network, including the following:
  • illustrations of the server installation process
  • a minimum of 8 Windows Server 2008 screenshots, with detailed explanations
  • descriptions of the settings for the following:
    • server roles
    • naming conventions
    • disk format (NTFS or FAT)
    • joining
    • security
    • centralized versus decentralized administration
  • a discussion of TCP/IP configuration
  • a comparison of settings between workgroup and domain
  • an explanation of typical installation problems/difficulties related to the following:
    • hardware
    • software
    • the network

The second phase, to be completed later, will be to expand their network to accommodate additional equipment.
