Computer networking and configurations you are hired as a chief technology officer (cto) of a startup company, which has two branches; one los angeles and one in san francisco. the company hired employees to begin working on the design of the product. as cto, you need to explain to the board of directors your idea in interconnecting the two offices to ensure consistency and collaboration. employee's computer systems need to be connected and permitted to connect remotely (from outside of the office). the following needs to be taken into consideration:
network topology ( sort of have this)
network topography, network protocols (sort of have this, but not all), cost of implementation, cloud productivity software

this is mapping out our network to decide the different units of our matrix will need access to the software. there is a company called lucid software, inc. that is very gook at providing tools and services to increase productivity and collaboration among the different departments and teams (lucid software, inc., 2019).

network topography, network protocols, cost of implementation, cloud productivity software

a protocol is a set of rules and procedures used for communication and every company has their own set of protocols or stacks of protocols. this is the process that we will collaborate with the implementation team. for example, the united post office service (usps) has a different process for sending and receiving documents than a federal express. this is where a gateway comes into play such as the sender, the receiver, the delivery and many other levels of protocols or standards in place to complete the process (liberman, n.

an osi model is the term used as a reference model (basic standards) for network communications (liberman, n.

there are seven layers in an osi that include the different levels of transmitting information, for example the creation of the information, the presentation of the document, moving the document through the networking in computer (liberman, n.
