Advanced Networking

Wireless and Wired Network

What we need to do at present?We need to know the existing basic ICT infrastructure of all the Ministries/Divisions, Departments: Electrical connectivityLAN, WAN Computers, Servers, Switches, RoutersInternet connectivity and Bandwidth etc.

What we need to do at present?To select a suitable Room (min 15'x20') for DICTC.To make available of 3 phase Electrical power line in the Room. Renovation of the Room (if necessary).To assign someone as In charge of the Room until Manpower is deployed.Physical security should be ensured.

Concluding RemarksTo have a Government wide Network to ensure delivery of citizen services through the effective implementation of e-Governance towards achieving a Digital Bangladesh by 2021.
