1. Designing the Network Infrastructure:

Bacon Institute is an organization that provides educational offerings to nontraditional students.

The organization has different offerings depending on the group:

• Bacon Branded – This offering focuses on the general public and provides services directly to its student.
• Co-Branded – This offering provides the same services as the Bacon Branded; however, they are resold by a third party and labeled as “….powered by Bacon.”
• White Label – While the service offering is the same, these services are labeled solely with the third parties’ information.

Due to the security and regulatory requirements as well as the concern of corporate espionage, many security concerns must be addressed.

Your task is to develop a network infrastructure design that meets the requirements above for the Orlando, Phoenix, and Toronto sites and create a network drawing using Visio or Draw.io, specific to Bacon Institute, listing the network’s topology.

The design is to be based on the following:

• There is constant connection between the three locations, carrying at least 75 Mbps of data.
• Each facility has three floors, rectangular with dimensions of 250 feet by 400 feet.
• There needs to be 150 network connections on the first and second floor of each building. The data center in each building is located on the third floor and requires 75 network connections. Additionally, the Phoenix location will require additional network connections for failover.
• The primary data center is located at the Orlando location.
• A failover data center is located at the Phoenix facility.
• Protection from intrusions should be detailed.
• The primary web servers (including primary application and primary database servers) are located at the Orlando location.
• Redundant database servers are located at the Toronto location.
• All servers must have redundancy.
• A plan to verify security and failover measures will be required.

Use the attached Network Infrastructure Design template to complete the assignment. When you are finished, upload your work to the dropbox below.

2. Simulating and Testing Network Configurations

As a network administrator for Bacon Institute, you will need to become familiar with the Packet Tracer simulation tool from Cisco. Packet Tracer is used to simulate and test network configurations. This allows you to work out and improve upon the settings before implementing them.

Using the diagram and configuration information from your first task, create a Packet Tracer simulation.

Read the attached article from Marketing Profs on The Most Important B2B Digital Marketing Trends and Stats in 2017. For this weeks assignment, please review the statistics and trends and choose the two that you feel need to be considered as digital marketers develop their strategies for attracting business professionals on their choice(s) of communication platforms. Comment on your choices and why you think these are the most important for marketing success.

Marketing Analysis Short Paper Rubric

Your second assignment is to produce a 5-7-page close reading focused on a limited number of examples
that makes an argument about a similarity and/or difference between two of the works we have read this
semester. I suggest, but do not require, that you do not write about the same novel you chose for your first
paper assignment. If you do write about the same novel, you cannot take up the same topic you did in the
first paper. To create an interesting and compelling thesis, you might argue that there is a significant
similarity between two apparently different texts (e.g. a middlebrow and a modernist work) or an
important point of difference between apparently similar texts (e.g. two middlebrow works).
This assignment also requires that you use at least one secondary source: a journal article, book chapter,
biography, history of the period, etc. You may use this source to add color to your introduction or
conclusion; in support of your argument; or to state a counter-argument you will refute. If you have
difficulty finding such a source, please consult me.
To succeed in this assignment, you must select a narrow point of comparison or contrast—do not choose
something very general (i.e. the style of two works) or your essay will not make a forceful argument.
Instead, you want to pick an aspect of form or content that you can persuasively address. Here are some
possible topics, but feel free to pick your own:
• Treatment of sex/gender, class, or race
• Representation of the impact of WWI
• Attitudes toward popularity/commercial success
• One aspect of style (closure; parody; characterization; self-reflexivity; etc.)
• Transportation or other new technologies
• The role of tradition or the past
• Specific values
• Time (clock time versus psychological time)
Your goal is to come up with your own argument, preferably one that does not simply echo our class
discussions. Once you have chosen your texts, take some time to reread and take careful notes. See if an
argument or approach emerges out of these activities. If not, consider discussing your ideas with an
instructor or classmate. Once you have arrived at a tentative argument, choose a few main points, look for
your secondary source, and begin writing. Do not attempt to fulfill this assignment by summarizing. You
want to display your ability to interpret the specific language of the works you have chosen.
In addition to an original argument and careful use of evidence, good responses to this assignment will do
four things. First, they will begin with an introduction that tastefully gets the reader’s attention. Second,
they will include a clearly written thesis statement to guide the reader through the paper. Third, they will
conclude in some way that indicates how the argument might alter other readers’ understanding of the
texts. Finally, they will be carefully organized, revised and proofread so that the argument shines through
without needless distractions for the reader. All papers should be double-spaced with standard margins
and a 12-point font. Please number the pages.

I would Prefer that you have read the novel that the paper is based off of. this is a list of the novels, the paper should be based off of one or comparative of no more than two of the novels.
