them and buyers to access the music easily and all in one place.
Purpose

I have been asked to design and build a network solution for my friends music shop called “the first music” i
have been asked to plan a complete network and a computer system that meets the user requirements and
future expansion plans, the shop will sell new music and uses music and allow customers to get online in the
shop and download new music. I also need to plan to offer classes on how to download music and configure
mp3 devices.

My user requirements are:


1. Customers must be able to download music.
2. Staff must be able to search for music.
3.Must have one centralised printer.
4 .Must have administrator account
5.Must be cost effective
6.Must have applications of software tools to download music and facilitate management off the

Network structure
A network structure is something pertaining to a computer network.

Types of computer networks:


- Peer- to- peer network
- client/server network

Types of network organizational structure


- Internal network structure
- Stable network structure
- Dynamic network structure
3 computers for the three users

Printer to print documents

Switch to connect the computers together

Software

Windows 10 operating system

Google software for slides and docs

Antivirus & firewall to stop hackers and viruses

Music software to play the downloaded music

Google chrome for browsing the internet for information


Network design

My network contains 3 high spec computers, printer


and a switch and it's all connected by ethernet
cables.
The computer is for the users to log in, The printer is
used for the user to print stuff and the switch is used
for all the devices to connect to each other and the
internet.
Alternative design

I have changed this as it is faster, the scale is


unlimited and it is a lot more efficient as you can
wirelessly connect as many devices as you can
whenever you want. For this i am going to use a
WLAN in which is connected wirelessly from all
the computers and devices in the network
connecting to each other then to the router.
Set up / configuration costs
A LAN network costs, annually in the uk, from around £150 to £550 depending on the equipments and the
amount of cable you need and whether you need to purchase a computer or modem.

A WLAN network costs less than LAN network because it has no wires.
Design justifications

I have chosen WLAN network structure, as it is cheaper and its faster, it also does not need a lot of space
because its wireless whereas LAN network structure needs space for the wires.
Test plan
In my test plan i will make sure and test that in the LAN network structure all the wires are connected and
that there is enough space for the wires also In my test plan i need to ensure that all the 3 computers and
the printer are working and i will configure and pin and make sure all the setup is linked
Conclusion

I conclude that i have chosen WLAN for my final design because….

- WLAN can support hundreds and thousands of devices


- WLAN are wireless
- WLAN is faster
- Cost saving
- Flexibility
