Advanced Networking Technologies, communications homework help

Part-A

Students are advised to carefully study the given scenario and complete three tasks based on this

scenario.

A network administrator is provided a solution for a small company that has setup Internet

connectivity using two Linksys WRVS4400N business class routers. One is located at the Central site

and the other at the Branch site. They would like to access resources between sites but are

concerned that the Internet traffic would not be secure. To address their concern, it has beensuggested that they implement a site-to-site VPN between the two sites. A VPN would enable the

Branch site office to connect to the Central site office securely by creating a VPN tunnel, which would

encrypt and decrypt data.

Solve these tasks

Task 1- Define VPN technology and its benefits

Task 2- Components of VPN

Task 3- Characteristics of secure VPN

Part B

Plagiarism policy:

Clarification on Plagiarism Policy As per college policy, any form of violation of academic integrity will invite severe penalty.

Plagiarised documents, in part or in whole, submitted by the students will be subject to this policy. A. First offence of plagiarism

a. A student will be allowed to re-submit the assignment once, within a maximum period of one week. However, a penalty of deduction of 25% of the marks obtained for the resubmitted work will be imposed.

b. Mark deduction: When the work is resubmitted, the marking will be undertaken according to the marking criteria. In compliance with this policy, the 25% deduction is then made on the marks obtained. For example, in an assessment that carries a maximum of 50 marks, suppose a student were to obtain 30 marks for the resubmitted work, the final marks for that assessment will be 22.5 (after deducting 25% of the marks actually obtained for the resubmitted work).

c. Period of resubmission: The student will have to resubmit the work one week from the date he or she is advised to resubmit. For example, if the formal advice to resubmit was communicated to the student on a Sunday (latest by 5 pm), the student will have to resubmit the work latest by next Sunday 5 pm.

d. If the re-submitted work is also detected to be plagiarized, then the work will be awarded a zero.

e. Resubmission of the work beyond the maximum period of one week will not be accepted and the work will be awarded a zero. B. Any further offence of plagiarism a. If any student is again caught in an act of plagiarism during his/her program of study (either in the same module, same semester or in any other semester), the student will directly be awarded zero for the work in which plagiarism is detected. In such cases, the student will not be allowed to re-submit the work. 2

C. Guidelines a. Type 1: In case plagiarism is detected in any component or part submission (submitted at different times) of one assessment (assignment), the deduction in marks will be applicable for the whole assessment (assignment), even if only the component or part submission alone needs to be resubmitted.

b. Type 2: In case plagiarism is detected in a group assessment, all students of the group will be considered as having committed an act of plagiarism irrespective of whether plagiarism is on account of the act of all or a few or only one member. The policy will then be applied to all students.

c. Type 3: Combination of Type 1 and Type 2: In case plagiarism is detected in any component or part submission (submitted at different times) of a group assessment (assignment), the deduction in marks will be applicable for the whole assessment (assignment), even if only the component or part submission alone needs to be resubmitted. All students of the group would be considered as having
