1. Background of the Study 2.1 Description
In this information age the network is essential to the organization. Information and the rate at which it can be obtained and distributed, is key to the economic success of companies in the information age. This is the reason why the computer network is the central nervous system of most organizations today. Organizations must have a network that is available and reliable. Since networks consist of a complicated set of software and hardware components, reliability comes at the cost of redundancy, diligence, man power and management.
Trinity University of Asia is one of university in Quezon City dealing with many functions in its daily network management and administration. These many functions such as network management, network administration and system administration is mostly delegated from campus to department level to which a network or subnet has been assigned. But the proposed system will focus to implement on localized area network connection mainly for computer laboratories in the university. Limited current awareness at the computer laboratory’s network changes in resource inventory, resource configuration and number of hosted applications at the laboratory can place unexpected loads on the system/server which will eventually result to a reduced performance and availability. This is due to the packets to be dropped and make fault detection and correction more difficult.
In adopting a system like this, it will help the university computer laboratories in terms of security and order. By the use of network monitoring system,
