computer networking & cyber security -- 2

You are required to design, configure and troubleshoot network using virtual equipment and simulate topologies, connections, protocols and implement configuration using the appropriate simulator application. Design and configuration evidence should be included in the report as a walkthrough snippets.
Note: The below marking criteria will apply and must be included to meet all the practical implementation requirements in this section:
• Hierarchical Network Design Model (LAN)
• Subnetting (Design IP Addressing and Allocation)
• VLAN Configuration, VLAN Trunking 802.1Q, Inter-VLAN Routing
• DHCP Server, DNS Server, Web Server, Email Server
• Dynamic Routing Protocol Configuration using RIPv2 (WAN)
Also, Critically evaluate your design implementation effectiveness in terms of access control, user privileges, and effective use of IPSec VPN, hardening the devices, security features of hardware devices such as switches and routers.
Note: The below marking criteria will apply and must be included to meet all the practical implementation requirements in this section:
• User Privileges (Encrypted Passwords Configuration for Console, User, Privilege Exec Mode)
• 2 Variations of Extended Access Control List (ACL)
• IPSec VPN Configuration
