ISYS201 IT Infrastructure assessment Background The management of AusEd has decided to review the existing information technology infrastructure to cater for the increasing demand for better services for both staffs and students. Assume that you are the IT Infrastructure manager for AusEd. Further, you were assigned the responsibilities to review the exiting IT Infrastructure for the purpose creating a proposal for a new IT infrastructure. Your Project Please read the case study for AusEd posted in the LEO. The ISYS201 assessment 2 is about creating an overall IT Infrastructure proposal for AusEd. The proposal is an overview of the entire IT infrastructure to be presented to the AusEd management for future planning. The proposal will include IT Infrastructure diagram of the overall system. The diagram will include network infrastructure, all types of servers and clients as well as where they are located within the network. Indicate the presence of security features such as firewalls, VPNs. Finally briefly describe how the various sections of the plan serve the business needs of the internal and external users of the system. Criteria of stage 1 report 1.
