RATIONALE

This assignment has been designed to allow students to test and demonstrate their understanding and ability to explain the usages of networking software, set up a simple virtual local area network, and trace data packets sent. Upon completion of this coursework, students will be able to:

·                     CLO3: Demonstrate networking skills in a group

CASE STUDY

            Students are required to use CISCO packet tracer to create a virtual network which consist of five departments in a college. They are Student Department, Finance Department, Marketing Department, HR Department, and IT Department. Students need to assign IP address, create virtual LAN, and set some security rules to permit or block certain access into specific network or services. The detailed requirements are as the following:

a.                   Every department has its own server to be served as a DHCP, FTP, and HTTP server for its own department.

b.                  Every department has its own printer.

c.                   Every department has its own wireless access point for users to connect.

d.                  Every department has its own VLAN.

e.                   Student department DHCP service must be able to assign IP address for at least 10000 students.

f.                   This college only have 3 routers, and 6 switches to use.

g.                  Router 1 is reserved for student department use, router 2 is reserved for IT department use, and router 3 is reserved for the other three departments use.

h.                  VTP concept are applied in router 3 subnet where there must be a VTP server to manage another two VTP client. Only one switch is allowed to connect to the router 3. Every department can add, or remove any devices easily through their own switch.

i.                    One of the router 2 ports is reserved for connecting to public internet. This port ONLY can let public users to enter this college network for viewing web sites purpose.

j.                    Students are ONLY allowed to open web sites from IT department server. Students are not allowed to enter any other subnet belongs to the rest of the departments.

k.                  All users in this college are ONLY allowed to open web sites from public internet, except IT department users are allowed to connect to public internet for all purposes.

l.                    HR, Finance, and Marketing departments can do file transfer, and open web applications from IT department server.

m.                IT department server can perform any service with port number > 20 to all servers in the college.

TASKS

1.                  Solve the case study in the previous page using CISCO packet tracer.

2.                  Refer to marking scheme on the marks allocation for individual marks and group marks.

3.                  Create a table to show all end devices’ IP address, subnet mask, default gateway.

4.                  Create a table to show all network devices’ interfaces IP address, and subnet mask.

5.                  Solve this task separately from the existing project in another CISCO file. If you are given an IP address of 192.168.1.0/18 to be reserved for the local area network connecting to Router0 through Switch1, how many bits (MOST MINIMUM) would you borrow from host bits and assign equally to five different subnets in the same physical LAN? How many users can be supported in each LAN? Justify your answer with all detailed calculations and create a new CISCO packet tracer file for this specific LAN.
