Considering everything you have learned thus far, propose a practical series of steps you would use if you had been asked to design the infrastructure of wires in some appropriate topology with appropriate capacities for a real packet-switched network using TCP/IP. List the questions you would ask and the approach you would take to coming up with a design.

  2.
