To ensure high availability and robustness of a network,
you could use the following design.

Clock Encoding System
Manchester Encoding
There is a transition at the middle of each bit period.
The midbit transition serves as a clocking mechanism and also data.
A low-to-high transition represents a 1
A high-to-low transition represents a 0
Differential Manchester Encoding
The midbit transition is used only to provide clocking.
The encoding of a 0 is represented by a presence of transition at the beginning of a bit period.
A 1 is represented by the absence of a transition at the beginning of a bit period
Transmission Media
Put FO on the media to represent fibre optic, then indicate it in the legend of your network diagram.
Amplitude and Frequency
Amplitude is the height of the wave.
Frequency is the number of cycle of wave.
Amplitude uses the height of the wave for encode the signal.
Frequency uses the number of cycle of wave to encode the signal.
Internet Protocol
In the case if the router is password protected, follow the instruction to remove the Cisco 2800 Series Router Password:

Connecting to a Physical Router's Console Port using Putty and a USB-RJ45 cable.
Connecting to a Physical Switch's Console Port using Putty and a USB-RJ45 cable.
*Note: Cisco CCNA or ICND materials can help you with the IP address calculation questions.
Network Address Range: Class A
The 1st bit of the 1st byte in the network address must always be off, or 0.
0xxxxxxx
Network Address Range: Class B
The 1st bit of the 1st byte must always be turned on but the 2nd bit must always be turned off.
10xxxxxx
Network Address Range: Class C
The 1st 2 bit of the 1st byte is always on, but the 3rd bit is off.
110xxxxx
Default subnet mask for different class of IP address.
Subnetting allows you to take one larger network and break it into a bunch of smaller networks.
IPv6 RFC can be obtained from www.ietf.org
RFC1883
RFC8200
IPv6 testing can be done with
Address Resolution Protocol using Wireshark
