Current Network Infrastructure of CHTM Building

The 3-Story CHTM building's current network architecture, the researchers discovered,

requires adjustments and further enhancements. Network security is a problem, and the internet

speed is too slow to satisfy user demand because the Access Point is situated on the second floor

of the structure, other floor levels' connections are substantially slower. There are fourteen (14)

rooms in the CHTM building. To broaden their knowledge and expertise for this investigation,

the researchers would like to conduct their research at the CHTM facility.

Ground Floor
Floor

Figure 4.1
As show in figure 4.1.1 were there are 4 access points that have 2 inside the dean’s office and 2

in the faculty offices. There is 1 network rack in the ground floor. Outside the building the

researchers see that there are 3 CCTV’S in the center, left side and right side of the building. The

researchers find out that the UTP cable at the back that connects to the dean’s office is hanging.

Second Floor

Figure 4.2

The figure 4.1.2. is the second floor of the CHTM building. The researchers find out that in this

floor is they have only 1 access point and no CCTV

Third Floor
 Figure 4.3

At the third floor, there is no CCTV or any internet access.

Proposed Network Infrastructure of CHTM Building

The researchers will propose a new network infrastructure of CHTM building to improve

the current network that they have at the moment. The proposed plan will also include the

installation of Network Securities and its architecture.

The researchers will put an additional Access points , a switch , a cctv and etc. that will

help the CHTM building to have a better internet connections and also the Security of the

building.

The researchers proposed network infrastructure to improve the network and security in

the CHTM building.

Figure 4.4
 The researchers will adding a 1 access point in the hallway and the utp cable will be fixed it

in the wall so that it will not be a hanging cable. The cctv’ will remain as if it is and it is

show in this figure.

Second Floor

Figure 4.5

The second floor’s current network infrastructure has only 1 access point and no CCTV so the

researchers will add a 1 access point and 2 cctv’s for the protection of the students and teachers

of the CHTM building and other students that are studying other courses.
 Third Floor

Figure 4.6

The researchers proposed that in the third floor to put 3 access point and 2 CCTV’s for students

and teachers to have access to the internet and have safety measures.

This is the proposed network diagram that the researchers proposed. There are additional access

points and CCTV’s to improve the internet connection and to make sure that the security of the

students and faculty of the CHTM building is recorded.

Questions:

This question is sought to be answer by the network analysis that handle the network

infrastructure of CHTM building:

5-Strongly Agree; 4-Agree; 3-Neither Agree nor Disagree; 2-Disagree; 1-Strongly Disagree

5 4 3 2 1

1. Current network speed needing improvement

2. The internet limit be restricted to education

use only

3. The internet/web should be accessed for a

limited time only

4. Implement more Surveillance cameras

(CCTV) inside the building

5. Use social networking sites for daily use

6. Set limit of internet speed connection/upload

download according to user type

7. Allocate data bandwidth to user’s speed

connection will be throttled down after

consuming
8. Education websites will be prioritized, low

speed connection for other sites.

9. Implementing new network on building can

help staff and student productivity

10. Require Wi-Fi connectivity in core locations

(restrooms, breakrooms etc.)
