IP Security: A Brief Survey

Objectives: -Explore different network environments. -Describe Ethernet technology. -Discuss Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and Internet Protocol (IP). -Analyze Local, Wireless and Highspeed Networks. -Examine Mobile Technology and Wireless Networks. -Survey the network performance and monitoring. -Research various network topics and select which one you would like to develop. Guidelines: Dear ENV.current_user.display_name, Choose a topic relevant to Networking Technologies and submit it for approval by emailing the Professor. Then proceed to being writing a 2-3 page research paper. Your paper must be typed using MLA Documentation Style. Your paper must be in 12 size Font and double space. Your paper should have at least 2-3 references including at l east one reference from book, newspaper or some other source other than the Internet. If you are using Internet resources make sure your Internet resources are reliable. Any information or opinion in your written work which is derived from, or quoted directly or indirectly from a primary or secondary source (including the Internet), must be correctly cited in a footnote, or endnote. Failure to cite your source of information is called plagiarism and carries the consequence not only of a failing grade on the Term Paper but also the possibility of failing the course and of expulsion from the university.Examples of Topics to choose from (not limited to this list): IP Security: A Brief Survey Submitting Your Assignment and Turnitin The Turnitin Assignment is in Canvas. You do NOT have to go to Turnitin to submit your paper. Turnitin is plagiarism-checking software. It checks to see if your work is original. I have set the Turnitin Assignment so you can submit your paper as many times as you want until the due date. That will allow you to check your plagiarism score and see where your work is not original. You can then rephrase that section and put it into your own words. The expectation in this course is that your paper scores no more than 10% in plagiarism (90% original work). You will be able to resubmit your paper as many times as you need to in order to get it right until the Due Date (see the link below to a video showing you how to resubmit). You will NOT be able to resubmit after the Due Date. Note that it takes 24 hours to see your new plagiarism score after resubmission. No more than 2 or 3 quotes in the entire paper, please. Avoiding Plagiarism You must be careful not to copy someone else's ideas and not to copy and paste ideas from the sources you find. Copying and pasting from someone else's work are considered plagiarism. You may use other people's ideas, but you have to put them in your own words and reference the source. Putting things in your own words is called "paraphrasing." And you must put the reference right after the idea. Needless to say, submitting plagiarized papers, including those copied from one of the Web sites that have "free" papers or even papers you can buy, will result in a penalty. That penalty in this course is that your grade will be reduced by the percentage of plagiarism over 10%. In other words, the less plagiarism, the higher your score is likely to be; the more plagiarism, the lower your score will be. The paper is worth 10% of your grade in this course.
