Description

Design a network as shown below in figure 1, and perform a performance test for each set of application as shown in following table 1 to validate it.

For the network design in figure 1, Application Sets 1, 2, 3 and 4 in table 1, are located in LAN A, B, C and D respectively.

Demonstration: Students can demonstrate in a group of 2. Students should be ready with all setup and configurations before start of the laboratory class.

Instructor will ask 2-3 questions to each student to demonstrate any configuration of the setup.

Demonstration from each student should not be more than 3 minutes.
