An Undergraduate Internship/Project on Network Infrastructure Design & Deployment for Softex Sweater Industries (Pvt.) Ltd.

Abstract

My project report for Softex Sweater Industries (Pvt.) Ltd. centers on "Network Infrastructure Design and Deployment". This report is on the development of the network infrastructure for Factory-1 (DEPZ), Factory-2 (Sreepur) and Head Office (Gulshan-2) post the recent departmental relocation. The goal of this project is to elevate our network performance, security, and accessibility to meet the evolving demands of our operations. This project will entail a comprehensive assessment and redesigning of the existing network infrastructure at both Factory-1, Factory-2 and Head Office. Additionally, the installation of CCTV IP surveillance system at two locations. Through meticulous analysis, we will identify areas for improvement, optimization, and potential security enhancements. The goal is to design and implement an upgraded network framework that ensures seamless communication, with increased bandwidth, and robust security protocols that meets all operational requirements and also future proofing the networking capacities, considering all existing systems such as E-mail server, access control system etc. The network server room setup, installation and configuration will be aligned with BEPZA compliance, ensuring the highest standards of operation. During the internship, a strong focus will be on teamwork, evaluations, and ongoing enhancements. Scheduled feedback sessions will provide valuable insights for constructive assessments and continuous learning experiences. As part of the project, I will focus on network deployment, server configuration, network installation and optimization, installation of CCTV surveillance system, user support and training to ensure a smooth transition for our team. The report begins with a problem statement, followed by a comprehensive literature review that explores relevant topics for network infrastructure.
