Discuss step by step process to build the network for the chosen business case study. (Please see the two case studies presented at the end of the document). Write a report with the following contents Design a detailed Network in Netsim (You should not use packet tracer) which includes Minimum of 4 switches (select series, model etc.) Minimum of 3 routers (select series, model etc.) 4 PCs Network device configurations a. Switch configuration: set hostname as your name set system clock to May 2017 11am display the name of the file and version of IOS display the name of the interfaces display 6 IOS modes b. Router configuration set hostname as your family name set system clock to May 2017 3:30pm display the name of the file and version of IOS display the name of the interfaces display 6 IOS modes Network device configurations a. Switch configuration: Set IP addresses on PC and switch Create VLAN Ping each other Set VTP domain with your first name Set VTP password with your family name Demonstrate VTP packets b. Router configuration set descriptions on interfaces, one with your name, second with your family name, third with your middle name display information about directly connected devices to router Setup IP addresses for each interface What is the subnet mask did you use? Ping all 3 routers. Demonstrate working of whole network.

Clear referencing style Generally good referencing style Sometimes clear referencing style Lacks consistency with many errors Case Study 1: Hospital Network Design A network proposal has to be designed for a hospital which has the following. There is a main block and three wards in the campus. The main block is the administrative block where registration of new patients takes place. The main block has 5 floors. The hospital has identified hospital management software, which should be accessible by the employees. The software is installed on a server at the administrative block. At the ground floor, there are 15 computers at the billing section. At other floors, there is one computer user each. The farthest distance between the computer on the top most floor and the ground floor is less than 70 meters. The wards have 5 floors each, with 10 computers in the ground floor of each ward. The distance between the wards and the blocks are less than 80 Meters. The computers in the wards may be increased based on future expansion plans. Case Study 2: VLAN network design with restricted internet access To design a network for a software development organization based on vlan with Cisco routers and switches. The organization has three departments, development, testing and trainee and a high speed internet connection. The trainee department should not have access to internet browsing, but all other communication should be allowed on the internet. The users in all the departments should have inter access communication with each other. All the departments should be on different IP networks.
