Hi I am newbie here. I work for a media magazine but am going to school to for IT. I overheard our Director discussing the need for some networking that needs to be done. Problem is the budget so it is not going to happen. BUT I thought I could make a great impression (for my career as well as future) by giving some input. Here is the scenario:
6 Offices need to be interconnected to each other. Every office needs direct connectivity to each of the other offices. All offices have standardized using IP. Every office has access to FT1, T1, T3, SONET, Frame Relay, ATM and X.25 protocols. I believe the following bandwidth needed at each interface shown below. What are the data link layer and physical layer protocols that you would use at each location?
and most importantly explain why you would choose each of these?
Office 1: 1.2Mbps
Office 2: 200Kbps
Office 3: 30Mbps
Office 4: 1.4Mbps
Office 5: 20Mbps
Office 6 (headquarters): 97Mbps
I appreciate anyhelp on this!!!
