Network Solutions would like to know an efficient topology, standard and protocols for their network. Alternatively you may use a current work place scenario.

The company has 8 staff and there are 8 Dell PC’s all running Windows 10 in a single office with no network. An old server is available in the workroom but needs to be tested and set up if required. There is an internet connection through the service provider Eclipse and a wireless router is already provided. Additional software, hardware and cabling can be acquired if needed.

You must justify the choices you make.
