Computer Network Protocol (0105400) Project

QUESTION

You have been hired as a network architect. You are tasked by the IT manager to design IP addresses for your new network, which consists of 2 different Labs; each lab will have to use a different architecture (Centralized, decentralized or distributed).You (student/network architect) need to choose a network ID which is the best to make these 2 networks. You (student/network architect) will have a minimum of 4 workstations in lab 1, 4 workstations in lab 2. Both the labs must be connected to each other and must be able to transfer data packets between the networks.

Students should submit a report, which includes the following:

1. The network design which shows and explains the following clearly:

-IP addresses of each network (1 marks)

-Broadcast address for each network (1 marks)

2.The team must simulate the proposed networks on the Packet Tracer simulator and make sure the following points are achieved:

a.The simulated packet tracer network reflects the proposed networks architecture. (1 mark)

b. The team must make sure each node within the network and between the networks can access the other nodes within that network and that messages arrive correctly as follows:

From any sender device to any receiver device in the same/different networks; (1 marks)

A broadcast message can be generated from any host with in any lab, and the message must be delivered to each of the connected hosts in the lab. (1 mark)

3.The team must submit a PDF file that will have images generated using the simulator for each one of the abovementioned points, along with a detailed explanation of what steps are performed to achieve the task. (1 mark)

4.Each group with all the members must present their project report in class along with the simulation (must be in working condition) using a live packet simulator. (4 Points)

6.Any copied solution, same project addresses, obvious similarities will not pass.

Note: Any assessment with plagiarism higher than 19% or text written using AI tools is more than 20% will be awarded 0 marks.

There is no single solution for this project.
