Building	Occupant user types	Projected network traffic level to/from building	Rationale	Estimated maximum bandwidth to/from building
Memorial	~200 students, 1 staff	High	Male students, especially freshmen, typically engage in lots of Internet gaming, and they are more likely to use instant messengers to keep in touch with high school friends. Dormitory buildings will have the highest amount of network traffic because that is where most students are when they use the network.	2 Mbps
Ketler	~220 students, 1 staff	High	More students, most of whom are underclassmen (also, see rationale for Memorial)	2 Mbps
Lincoln	~200 students, 1 staff	High	(see rationale for Memorial)	2 Mbps
Hopeman	~270 students, 1 staff	High	Hopeman houses the most male students (also see rationale for Memorial)	2.5 Mbps
Alumni/PLC	~120 students, 20 Phys. Ed. teachers	Medium	There are not as many students in this building, and the Phys. Ed. teachers are like other faculty members in that they don’t use the network for recreational purposes while in their offices. Therefore their required bandwidth would not be as high.	1.25 Mbps
Hicks	~200 students, 1 staff	High	(see rationale for Memorial)	2 Mbps
MAP	~700 students, 6 staff	Very high	Even though female students are less likely to engage in intense Internet gaming, there are still so many people in MAP dormitory. There are also the food service managers as well as the head residents.	6 Mbps
MEP	~300 students, 1 staff	High	Still a significant number of resident students	2.5 Mbps
Harker	~200 students, 1 staff	Medium	Not as many students in this building	1.75 Mbps
SAB	Unknown	Estimated to be low	It is unlikely that there will be many students coming to this building with the purpose of getting on the Internet. The building is meant for gatherings, meetings, and other social events.	0.25 Mbps
NAB	Estimated maximum of 400 students online at any given time. Building houses roughly 80 faculty members.	Medium	Although it is estimated that 400 students could be online at any given time, they will not be using a tremendous amount of bandwidth for accessing Blackboard, the network neighborhood, or online course resources. It is assumed that the students will be prevented from using instant messengers or playing games during class.	3 Mbps
Rockwell	Estimated maximum of 200 students online at any given time. Building houses roughly 25 faculty members.	Low	Again, the students will not be using much bandwidth for course-related network access.	1.5 Mbps
Harbison Chapel	One faculty, one staff	Very low	There would be a maximum of only two people online at one time, but they would be in their offices.	0.25 Mbps
Phillips Field House	A few coaches	Very low	There might only be a few people online at one time. This building is not inhabited, nor does it house classes.	0.1 Mbps
Press Box	A few coaches, possibly Collegian staff	Very low	The press boxes are only used during football games, and there wouldn’t be many people online during the game.	0.1 Mbps
President’s Residence	The President and his family	Very low	There would probably be only one or two people online at one time, but this is their house where they would spend most of their time online.	0.25 Mbps
Zerbe Health Center	~10 students, 5 nurses/staff	Very low	Not many people online at one time	0.5 Mbps
Buhl Library/TLC	~70 library/TLC computers (which would almost always be used by students), estimated maximum of 80 students online at one time for classes	Very high	This is where the "guts" of the nework reside. The maximum total bandwidth has to go to and from this building in order to serve the rest of the campus. The total maximum bandwidth, calculated based upon the sum totals of the required bandwidths of all of the other buildings, is high enough so that it will not need to be upgraded for quite some time. This will save cost in the end.	32 Mbps
Hoyt	~20 faculty/staff, few network connections for students	Low	The faculty’s use of the network would be the biggest consideration for Hoyt.	0.75 Mbps
Pew	3 faculty members plus possibly a handful of the part-time staff at one time	Very low	The network is not used much in music and art classes.	0.5 Mbps
Boiler House	Exactly one connection	Very low	There could be only one person online at one time	0.1 Mbps
Crawford	~50 administrators and staff	Medium	Administrative work requires above-average network usage.	1 Mbps
Carnegie	~10 administrators/staff	Very low	This building houses only Career Services. There are not many people using the network in this building.	0.5 Mbps
Cunningham House	One family plus possibly a student or two	Very low	This house was inhabited by Dr. Foster and his wife until he retired. They occasionally rented a room to a student. The house could be inhabited by a family now. At most there may be two or three people online at one time.	0.25 Mbps
Maintenance Building	Very few network connections	Very low	The maintenance staff would not need to spend much time online.	0.1 Mbps
