NOTE:
To have successful design of the network you must also implement DHCP and RIP Configurations correctly.
Submission of work
Two files must be submitted as the outcome of your project:
- Design a network topology using information given in this document.
The network topology must be drawn and developed in the Cisco Packet Tracer Software package and save as Network_uXXXXXXX.pkt – where uXXXXXXX is your student no.
- Write a report in Word based on the following guidelines and save it as Report_uXXXXXXX.doc – where uXXXXXXX is your student no.
Documentation guidelines
- An individual report of 2,000 +/- 10% words, excluding the diagrams, illustrations and references, are required.
- The structure of the report should include the following sections:
- Title
- Introduction
- Objectives and overview of the coursework;
- Design and build computer network using Packet Tracer.
- Simulate the designed computer network using Packet Tracer.
- Capture the simulation results
- Evaluate the designed network and results of the simulation
- Conclusion
- References, presentation and Appendices etc.
- You need to write a comprehensive report which also includes answers to all the tasks mentioned in this document. Please indicate and bold the task number wherever you answer a task in the report.
NOTE
- Question 1 Task 1: after allocating IP addresses, fill them in Table 2 above and insert the table in your report.
- Question 2 Task 2:Your topology must be saved as a packet tracer file with extension. pkt (Network_u1339611.pkt) and be uploaded to the Turnitin in Moodle.
- Question 3 Task 3: Types of cables used for connection between devices and subnets must be indicated. Complete Table 3 and insert it in the report. Host names on the table should correspond to the host names on your packet tracer file. Please make sure that your file is saved after all devices have been configured.
- Question 4: Complete Table 4 above on this document and insert it in the report. The evidence of connectivity (results) of this question must be saved in the report.
- Please follow instructions below:
- Maximize the command prompt screen
- Verify two connectivities each time, press PrtScr and paste it in the report file. Please indicate the name of the host (HOST1, HOST2 or HOST3) for each screen dump. At the end you will have 10 screens, which must be big enough to show commands and results. (See Figure 2: Sample 2)
- Repeat the same verification using PDU. At end of all 20 verifications, double click on PDU List Window to make it bigger. Capture the screen by pressing PrtScr and paste it onto the report file. (See Figure 1: Sample 1)
