Network design for a high school. What type of LAN architecture suits? Which software and hardware are needed?
The school has three computer labs each with 20 computers and 1 monochrome laser printer. There are a further 16 computers in the Library as well as a monochrome laser printer, a color inkjet printer, a flatbed scanner (which is connected to a standalone computer), and a photocopier. Most of the computers are close to five years old, are very slow and have insufficient memory to meet the needs of the students. All teachers have been issued with laptops and desktop computers have been removed from the Staff Room. The school requires that: 1. Wired access for at least one teacher computer is provided in all classrooms, 2. Wireless network access is available in all classrooms as well as some outdoor areas for teachers and students, 3. Students have access to study resources from school and home, 4. Videoconferencing facilities are available. Suggest a type of LAN architecture that is suitable for the school. Please identify all the network hardware and software necessary to build the LAN solution(s) you are proposing. Remember that it is a school and access to the internet will need to be controlled and some sites blocked. HelloooOOoo!! Is there anyone who can help me with this question?!

- one managable switch (normal switches also willl work better go with managable switch) and 3 hubs (including wireless routers / switches). Since you want video conferencing, better inculde second switch.. you can implement star topology for the network. with a switch you can manage the access to internert
