Scenario

1: Local Area Network (LAN) to support Windows Server and Client Environment

TridentS is a software development company requiring the setting up of a LAN for their office located in Sydney.

They have four departments: Developers, Marketing, Operations, and Finance. All objects (e.g., users, computers, etc.) belonging to these departments need to be created within their respective OU for their own department.

TridentS requires the following technologies to be implemented within their LAN:

1) Centralised user authentication

2) Print server for users

3) All computers should acquire the IP addresses from a DHCP Server

4) TridentS needs to host a website, thus a separate IIS server is required

5) The company wants to store all the files on a separate file server and only users with appropriate access will be able to access them (not every user should have access to the files).

You can assume which users/groups will have access to these files, and state your assumption clearly.
