In order to set-up a network for a small business that consists of around 15 computers; what do you need? I know you need a router, that comes with cables, but what else is there
You'll need a switch to connect all the PCs, and a central server is a necessity. Take a look at SME Server for a domain controller and central file & print server. It's super easy to setup, secure and license-free. You can even use it as a router if you like, though I don't recommend it. If you impliment such a setup I can help out pretty extensively, as I have successfully deployed it for many small businesses already.
damn!!! i didnt add the fact ure goin to need a switch, and a domain controller, for my assignment. central file and print server-can that be part of your main server?-do you need software for that?
lol, yeah, I'm taking Management Information Systems :read: as one of my courses; you'll prolly hear from me again asking related questions. I'll keep that in mind if I do employ something like this in the future.:good:
