Network Specifications

You have been given the rough sketch for the network topology below. You are to draw the network using Visio, subnet the network (see case study part 2), and assign port numbers and IP addresses to ports.

You must save your Visio diagram as a .gif and import to your Excel spreadsheet (use one worksheet for the diagram (i.e., nothing else on that work
