I. Introduction
In the business world, networking is very important. Networking serves as the core and the backbone of a business. You will not notice it but every company in the business world has it for it works hidden. No networks in a company means no connection and no connection means no communication between the company and the data they need to have, which will result in a faulty business operations. It is the highway of data communication in a company because it is where all the data passes by in and out of the company. In short, no network means no business.
II. Objectives
The companys objective is to interconnect each and every device on the company for the flow of data to be constant and uninterrupted. In the case of the interviewed company since they are a recruitment type of business for OFWs their objective is to retrieve the information in the databases of their servers containing the applications of people applying for recruitment. They will hire these people so they would get more income in their business for they have recruited someone and that is what their business runs. Networking plays a big role on this because it is where every data of each applicant would be found.

V. Network Maintenance
Network maintenance depends on what equipment you have. We use different methods monitoring like: Firewall which protects the network. It acts as a filter of the requests. Particularly, I use Fortigate firewall, which acts an antivirus which blocks viruses, attacks especially on the servers. It acts as an all in one security solution. Other features of Fortigate is, UTM(Unified Threat Management) in UTM you can also limit the bandwidth of a user, web filter which can limit ones web access, application control, intrusion protection which protects the network from hackers and didos which attacks the servers until it freezes. Another use is email filters for spammers. I also use network monitoring, I check the server if its running or not. Particularly, Solarwins. This is where I check problems like loss of internet connection. If I there is no connection, the network monitor sends me an email regarding to the problem. Even the hardware of the equipments can be seen here, if its up running or not, the packet loss, connectivity, hard disk space etc.
because it is the agreement of which we pay them for their guaranteed internet service.
X. Recommendations
Based on the conducted interview, the interviewers would recommend that they use their network implementation in their company not just by recruitment or human resource, but also utilize it and create another business for increased income like shipping packages to people overseas, selling imported products, telecommunication services for loved communication of an OFW to their families back here in the Philippines, and etc.
