Network Design

Network design involves evaluating, understanding and scoping the network to be implemented. The whole network design is usually represented as a network diagram that serves as the blueprint for implementing the network physically. Typically, network design includes the following:

• Logical map of the network to be designed
• Cabling structure
• Quantity, type and location of network devices (router, switches, servers)
• IP addressing structure
  
• Network security architecture and overall network security processes
