Using Client-Server Approach to Design a Generic Local Area Network (LAN) for Naval Academy of Republic of China (ROCNA.

Abstract

This thesis demonstrates the application of design theory as it relates to the generic LAN for the Naval Academy of the ROC (ROCNA). The first part of the study covers a theory dealing with system analysis and design, network technology and data communication. This is used for a foundation for the development of a end-user survey and feasibility study for the ROCNA LAN. Chapter III of this study is a background of the ROCNA and an analysis of the Naval Academy's network requirements. In Chapter IV a generic LAN is developed to meet the ROCNAs requirements and different alternative designs are investigated. A cost-benefit analysis is performed to select between the design alternatives. The design selected uses a point to point connection dual ring backbone and a 10BaseT star topology for subnetworks. Finally, recommendations and conclusions are presented in Chapter V for more emphasis on information technology education in the ROC Armed Forces and specifically at the ROCNA.
