As shown in Figure
1 in the Project Motivation form the current configuration of the
Information & Link Network ( ILN ) of the Minufiya University and its
branches is build on a link of 2Mbps bandwidth (between FRCU and ILN
central site) , HDSL modems, 3700, 2601, and 2501 CISCO Routers, 4005
Core Switch, 3COM Edge Switches, Unix Server, Pentium III, and Pentium IV
PCs.
However, the objectives methodology of the project
are: Upgrade the bandwidth up to E3 -----> Gigabit between the FRCU
and ILN that is associated to an upgrade of the extra, inter, and intra BW
of the links between the ILN and its branches. Simultaneously, upgrade the
hardware of the main devices such as (Routers, Modems, Switches, Hubs,
Servers, PCs, and etc.) with the latest technology, upgrade the software
which applicable to the services based on e-technology such as
(e-learning, e-library, e-education, …..etc.). Draw the mechanisms and
strategies of using the Information Technology which can be useful for all
the users. Draw the configuration of the security policies and firewalls
to protect the Information Technology from attacks and hackers. Upgrade to
the date of the anti viruses and worms for protection the IT from damage
or lost.
The project outputs/outcomes are: Improve the
access to the Internet and also, to the distributed Local Computer
Networks. Guarantee to support newly Internetworking devices, equipment’s
and up to date services based on e-technologies. Improve and enhancing
research and education strategies.
The assumptions and risks of the project are: The
delay to start of the implementation to the project which have been
pointed out above for any reason. The bad routine for finishing and
approve some forms of process for buying and implement something belongs
to the work which have been mentioned above. The delay of some companies
for finishing their work because of either bad routine of the rules or
less experience with the work !!!!!!
The following Figure 2 and Figure 3 show the connection
between the FRCU with ILN, and the connection between the ILN with its
sub-sites, and the connection between the ILN's sub-sites with the ILN's
sub-sub sites (we'll follow the same topology for extending and adding of
the new sub-sites or sub-sub-sites to the ILN configuration).
