Well, I'd be in favor of making it 75% of the final grade if
you also specified that he had to implement SNMP.

	I think 3 months is enough. It sounds like a trivial exercise in
	C programming. Perhaps we can assign it as a term project to
	a class in Netwoking.

	Home Work (worth 50% of the final grade)

	Design and implement appropriate protocols and interfaces to enable
	all Internet traffic to be carried by a combination of frame relay 
	SMDS and ATM.
	Make sure that appropriate levels of reliability,robustness and
	security are included.
	Make sure that the resultant network interoperates with the current 
	network(s) as well.

	What do you think Alison?
