Site surveys are an important part of planning a secure wireless network and help to ensure that the network complies with the norms of risk management frameworks. In this assignment, you will conduct a visual assessment of a familiar environment to produce a site survey.
Perform a basic assessment of a familiar environment (e.g., your home, work, or a local business).
Identify the following:
Your goal (e.g., provide wireless coverage for a two-story house with two desktop computers and a printer)
Possible sources of interference
Existing wireless infrastructure
Potential access point placement
Potential antenna placement
Potential equipment and supporting equipment
Note: You may provide photographs to support the site survey.
Based on your visual inspection of the site, create a 1- to 2-page site survey. Provide your conclusions from your assessment and detail the following:
Methods of gathering information
Information gathered
Possible sources of interference
Existing wireless infrastructure
Recommendations for access point and antenna placement
Recommendations for equipment and supporting equipment
