Throughout the course you have been working with improvements to the Bedford Campus and its satellite campus in Mayberry and an additional satellite. Because of your work, you have been promoted from IT networking trainee to IT networking technician. A new trainee will be starting next week and your boss has asked you to provide a training guide for the new trainee highlighting the knowledge and skills you have developed. Using Individual and Learning Team assignments and discussions as reference, compile your guide as follows: As a reference, compile the final network diagrams (1 page each) for all campuses with all of the improvements you and your team have made. Create a 1- to 2-page Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) in the form of a table in Microsoft ® Word including the following questions: What is the difference between a distributed and a centralized computer system? Describe the underlying principles and issues of distributed versus centralized computer systems and how cloud-based solutions have altered current networking solutions. Refer to the network diagrams you created as an illustration of a distributed network. What are the major network topologies? Refer to the network diagrams you created as an illustration of the logical and physical topology you employed. Why are standards bodies essential in networking and the Internet? Why are the OSI and TCP/IP network models important in networking? Provide an example from one of the labs that illustrates the performance of one of the protocols you used. What are the major TCP/IP protocols in use today? Provide an example from one of the labs that illustrates troubleshooting an issue with a protocol you used. What is the difference between a LAN and a WAN? What is meant by the terms latency, response time, and jitter, and what tools could you use to measure these?

1. Throughout the course you have been working with
improvements to the Bedford Campus and its satellite campus in
Mayberry and an additional satellite. Because of your work, you
have been promoted from IT networking trainee to IT
networking technician. A new trainee will be starting next week
and your boss has asked you to provide a training guide for the
new trainee highlighting the knowledge and skills you have
developed.
Using Individual and Learning Team assignments and
discussions as reference,
compile
your guide as follows:
As a reference,
compile
the final network diagrams (1 page each) for all campuses with
all of the improvements you and your team have made.
Create
a 1- to 2-page Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) in the form
of a table in Microsoft
®
Word including the following questions:
What is the difference between a distributed and a centralized
computer system? Describe the underlying principles and issues
of distributed versus centralized computer systems and how
cloud-based solutions have altered current networking solutions.
Refer to the network diagrams you created as an illustration of a
distributed network.
What are the major network topologies? Refer to the network
diagrams you created as an illustration of the logical and
physical topology you employed.
Why are standards bodies essential in networking and the
Internet?
Why are the OSI and TCP/IP network models important in
networking? Provide an example from one of the labs that
illustrates the performance of one of the protocols you used.

2. What are the major TCP/IP protocols in use today? Provide an
example from one of the labs that illustrates troubleshooting an
issue with a protocol you used.
What is the difference between a LAN and a WAN?
What is meant by the terms latency, response time, and jitter,
and what tools could you use to measure these?
What is VOIP, and what older technologies does it replace?
