Introduction
Properly designing a computer network is a difficult task. It requires planning and analysis, feasibility studies, capacity planning, and baseline creation skills.
Performing network management is difficult too. A network manager must possess computer and people skills, management skills, financial skills, and be able to keep up with changing technology.

Systems Development Life Cycle
SDLC is a methodology, or plan, for a structured approach to the development of a business system

Network Modeling
When updating or creating a new computer system, the analyst will create a set of models for both the existing system (if there is one) and the proposed system.
Network models can either demonstrate the current state of the network or can model the desired computer network.
A series of connectivity maps are network modeling tools that depict the various locations involved over wide and local areas, and the interconnections between those locations.

Network Modeling Notation
d = distance of the connection (usually shown in either miles or kilometers)
s = security level (high, medium, low, or none) du = duplexity (full duplex, half duplex, or simplex) dr = data rate desired (in bps) l = latency, or acceptable delay time across the
network (usually in milliseconds, or ms) QoS = Quality of Service (CBR - constant bit rate,
VBR - variable bit rate, ABR - available bit rate, UBR - unreliable bit rate, none)
de = delivery rate (sometimes called throughput percentage

Feasibility Studies
Technically feasible means the proposed system can be created and implemented using currently existing technology.
Financially feasible means the proposed system can be built given the company’s current financial ability. Payback analysis
Operationally feasible means the system operates as designed and implemented.
Time feasible means the system can be constructed in an agreed upon time frame.

Capacity Planning
Determine the amount of network bandwidth necessary to support an application or a set of applications Linear projection involves predicting one or more network
capacities based on the current network parameters and multiplying by some constant.
A computer simulation involves modeling an existing system or proposed system using a computer-based simulation tool.
Benchmarking involves generating system statistics under a controlled environment and then comparing those statistics against known measurements.
Analytical modeling involves the creation of mathematical equations to calculate various network values.

Managing Operations
There are many services and functions available to assist an individual in managing computer network operations.
One of the more useful is Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
SNMP is an industry standard designed to manage network components from a remote location.
Currently in version 3, SNMP supports agents, managers, and the Management Information Base (MIB).

Managing Operations
A managed element has management software, called an agent, running in it.
A second object, the SNMP manager, controls the operations of a managed element and maintains a database of information about all managed elements.
A manager can query an agent to return current operating values, or can instruct an agent to perform a particular action.
The Management Information Base (MIB) is a collection of information that is organized hierarchically and describes the operating parameters of all managed agents
