Project: Designing a school network

Suppose you have been assigned to design a network for your school, which has
been allocated the IP address 198.50.60.0. Describe the procedures you could
undertake to complete this project.

In your project, make sure you deliver a comprehensive and detailed report
covering the analysis, design decisions, and implementation process including
screenshots of the Cisco Packet Tracer implementation.
