Enterprise Network Design

Traction Solutions is a medium sized organization with operations in $4$ cities of South Africa; Johannesbu

Bloemfontein, Durban and Cape Town. Currently each site runs its operation independently and is config$$

ad hoc network.

The existing network lacks scalability, security, and efficient management, leading to frequent downtime $\frac{?}{\text{b}\text{a}\text{r}}(c)$

user experience.

Due to challenges in delays in production and other technology related issues, the IT Manager would like

the whole network infrastructure and have a centralized administration which would stream line all operat

entire company.

He has approached you to help design a network architecture that would satisfy these needs.

You team has come up with the logical design shown below: The following are some of your findings:

The organisation will use $2960(24$ port$)$ switches across all cities

Johannesburg's location needs $3$ VLANS i$.$e$.$ VLAN $10($Finance$),$ VLAN $20($Sales$)$ and VLAN $30($HR$)$

with equal ports per vlan per switch.

Cape Town's location needs $2$ VLANs, VLAN $100($Warehouse$)$ and VLAN $200($Manufacturing$).$

The DHCP Server $(192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}10\mathrm{.}4/24)$ and the Mail Server $(192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}10\mathrm{.}3/24)$ will reside at the Bloemfi

office.

Durban's location only has the office LAN in $192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}20\mathrm{.}0/24$ subnet.

All computers on the network receives their IP addresses from the DHCP Server in Bloemfontein i$.$e$.$

including all vlans.

All locations are to be connected via Point$-$to$-$Point leased line.

RIP v$2$ has been chosen as the routing protocol.

The following configurations are to be made on the routers:In Johannesburg and Cape Town, Inter VLAN routing is to be configured for cross functional communic

Users of all regions except the Factory VLAN will have access to the WebServer and Mail server.

Vlan Ip :

VLAN $10($Finance$)-192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}1\mathrm{.}0/24$

VLAN $20($Sales$)-192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}2\mathrm{.}0/24$

VLAN $30($HR$)-192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}3\mathrm{.}0/24$

VLAN $100($Warehouse$)-192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}100\mathrm{.}0/24$

VLAN $200($Manufacturing$)-192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}200\mathrm{.}0/24$

LAN Ip :

Bloemfontein LAN $-192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}10\mathrm{.}0/24$

Durban LAN $-192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}20\mathrm{.}0/24$

WAN Ip :

Johannesburg to Cape Town WAN $-20\mathrm{.}0\mathrm{.}0\mathrm{.}0/8$

Johannesburg to Durban WAN $-30\mathrm{.}0\mathrm{.}0\mathrm{.}0/8$

Bloemfontein to Durban WAN$-\frac{40000}{8}$Based on the scenario above answer the following questions:

$1\mathrm{.}1$ Design the network shown in the image in packet tracer.

$1\mathrm{.}2$ Change the names of all the routers to the ones specified in the routers table

$(5$ marks$)$

$1\mathrm{.}3$ Configure all routers with the IP addresses as specified in the table and test connectivity between the routers. $($How do I know which IP addresses to assign to each PC so I can test the connectivity or am I thinking of the wrong process?$)$

$(10$ marks$)$

$1\mathrm{.}4$ Configure the DHCP Server with a static IP address and the pools to assign IP addresses and other parameters to JHB$,$ DBN and CPT computers. The Default pool should assign IP addresses to devices that are in the local Subnet $($BLM$).$

$(12$ marks$)$

$1\mathrm{.}5$ Using CLI Configure all routers with RIP v$2$ routing protocols.

$(8$ marks$)$

$1\mathrm{.}6$

Using the right command show all routes configured and learnt using RIPv$2$ on each router.
