The key model behind the network design process is known as the network development life
cycle (NDLC) as illustrated in Figure 3.1.1. The word “cycle” is a key descriptive term of the
network development life cycle as it clearly illustrates the continuous nature of network
development. A network designed “from scratch” clearly must start somewhere, namely with an
analysis phase. Existing networks, however, are constantly progressing from one phase to
another within the network development life cycle.

3.2.1 Analysis

In analysis from this project is to give us an idea for a project because to identify
and substantiate the optimum solution that will satisfy the project requirements and constraints
and to establish the project budget, schedule, controls, and evaluation criteria that will be put
forward for preliminary project approval. The level of effort required for this phase is dependent
on the nature, complexity and sensitivities of the project. When the analysis phase of an
application development project ends, a developer should know what the application looks like,
how it functions, and how it is designed. The extensive information gathering, and analysis of
this phase provides extensive details on each of these aspects of the project. The final stage of the
analysis phase is to organize this information into documents that will guide the work during the
rest of the project.

The requirement specifications from first phase are studied in this phase and system
design is prepared. System Design helps in specifying hardware and system requirements and
also helps in defining overall system architecture.

In these phase, the process of designing the Wireless Storage. The tools that will be used for the
design is Microsoft Word 2013.During this design phase, Microsoft Word 2013 is used to draw
the network diagram. This design is to simulate the lab environment of the proposed design.
