Billy Jones has recently opened a new optical business in the local mall. He ran into some financial difficulties along the way, so he was forced to do much of the work himself in order to get the business open and generating income. Among the tasks that Billy performed was the creation of the network that will support his business. Billy has no IT experience, but he is very resourceful and relied on the local salesman at the neighborhood big-box electronic store to tell him what equipment he needed to purchase for his network. Billy then fired up some YouTube videos to show him the steps involved in assembling and configuring the equipment. Billy discovered along the way that the mall has a network infrastructure and support that it sells to tenants in the building, but Billy decided against participating because of the costs associated with providing the service. He also discovered that there was a charge for storing the networking equipment in the secure computing center within the mall, so he opted instead to store his servers in the back room of the shop he was renting. The salesman at the big-box store recommended to him that he implement a wireless network in order to avoid the hassle of running cables throughout the store.
