Course Overview
In this course, students will leverage the knowledge and skills they have accumulated over four terms of the program to design, build, test and troubleshoot a complex, converged computer network. Students will work in teams, develop a report, create a presentation on their project, and use project management procedures to monitor work progress. The computer network will be deployed across the classrooms using real equipment. The project will include technologies such as VoIP, enterprise wireless, messaging services, integrated management, and cloud services. Students focus on ensuring the system is secure and fault tolerant.
