Network Proposal Paper
Depicted below is a corporate network.
A corporation has two domain system servers (DNS), one web
server, and SMTP server. All servers and their connecting routers are in the
same subnet. A layer 3 switch is connected thru EtherChannel to another subnet.
The webserver and SMTP server are needed to communicate with
Internet.
For security purposes, web access to SMTP and DNS servers
are denied. The DNS servers should communicate only with each other and the
Internet.
For this network, you are required to implement the
following Layer 2 and Layer 3 services
Implement a switch to switch connectivity using Trunking and
aggregating links
· Implement a
PVLAN solution hosting DNS WWW and SMTP servers
· For security
implement VACL and PACL in Critical Subnet
· Provide a
verification plan for the above solution
Provide a technical proposal that addresses all issues
described above.
The proposal should contain:
· Cover page
· Index Page
· Executive
summary
· Technical
details (including any assumptions)
· Conclusion
· Reference
page
