March 2013 Meeting

I was not able to attend the March meeting, so the following was written by Mr. Mark McCoy:

On Saturday, March 16, 2013, Students enrolled in the Computer Network Systems (CNS) and the Computer Network Administration (CNA) Associate of Applied Science Degree Programs gathered in Lab three to participate in the ITT Quarterly Hands On Exercise Known as “Enterprise Network From The Ground Up”. 

During the All-Day Exercise, Students from all Quarters combined their collective skills to build a 5-Site Wide Area Network, complete with Microsoft Server 2008 Active Directory, Web Services (IIS and Apache), FTP Services, Database Services, OSPF Routing, Virtual LANs, Windows 7 Desktops, Windows 2008 Servers, a Fedora 15 Linux Server, and full-fledged Internet Access, from a spool of cable, 20+ Blank Hard Drives, 5 Blank CISCO 2600 Series Routers, and a Blank CISCO 2950 24-Port Switch.

Students gained valuable experience in Teamwork and Collaboration, not to mention getting an unparalleled opportunity to practice the hands-on networking skills they had learned throughout the quarter.

Below are a few photos of the activity.
