Provide some background information on the main idea in this lab and discuss the purpose of the lab activity. Procedure How did you go about implementing the lab activity? Describe the steps you took to ensure that the final implementation meets the original business goal. For example, did you design a new IP scheme and assign IP addresses to devices based on a given range of IP addresses? Did you assign IP addresses manually, dynamically, or both? Did you name devices based on location? Did you or would you connect switches first or routers first, why? Did you configure the end devices or the infrastructure devices first? What was the plan to verify that the network work? Note that the procedure must take into consideration not only the steps you took to implement the lab solution but also the order in which you carried out those steps and a rationale for doing so. Results Discuss your findings here. You devise some steps to complete the lab. Did the lab work? Did you make adjustments to your original procedure? How can you tell that the lab activity implemented meets the business needs? Application and Analysis Below are some sample questions that will guide you as you complete this lab section. From the information given, can you develop a set of instructions to implement the solution in a small-to medium-sized network? What, if anything, would you change before applying the lab activity in a production (live) network? What vertical market (Financial, Manufacturing, Education, Healthcare, Telecommunications, etc.) does this lab activity align with the most? Why? How was this lab activity similar to other labs that you have done in the past? Can you distinguish between concepts and application? Questions 1. What new concepts or theories have you learned about after completing this lab activity? 2. In this class, we use the three steps approach to complete the lab activity. The steps include plan, implement, and verify. Discuss and explain how you execute each step in this lab activity. 3 3. What challenges, if any, have you encountered in this lab? How have you addressed those challenges? If you have not experienced any challenge, tell us what new troubleshooting commands you have learned this week and how that command has helped you complete the lab activity. 4. How would you apply what you have learned this week in future courses or in the IS/IT field? Conclusion and Recommendation In the conclusion, you need to address what you intended to do and correlate that with what you actually did. Did the two differ in any way? Please explain any difference between expectation and observation. What would you suggest that we do differently to improve the lab experience? If you do not have any suggestions for this week, then what do you wish we add or remove from this week's lab to enhance your overall learning experience? How did the lab activity align with today's technology? Lessons Learned This is the take-away message. What have you learned from this lab activity? Assume this question comes from your grandma, what would you tell her? She does not need to have a technical background to understand what you did. In brief, make it plain and simple.
