 Abstract
The network design successfully connects the Account and Delivery departments with a
simple yet effective router and switch-based architecture . By assigning unique subnets to
each department and configuring appropriate IP addressing, the departments can communicate
securely and efficiently. The network is scalable , allowing for easy expansion, and it meets
the communication needs of the organization.

This design can be further optimized with additional features such as VLANs, security policies,
or high availability configurations if required. Cisco Packet Tracer, a powerful network
simulation tool, allows for a practical approach to designing, testing, and troubleshooting
network infrastructure. This project covers the setup of a file server, configuration of IP
addresses, server settings, and access permissions, providing a secure and accessible file-
sharing environment. Additionally, this project includes configuring user access policies and
implementing security measures to protect data. Through this simulation, users gain insight
into server setup, network protocols, and effective network resource management, ultimately
building a foundational understanding of network file sharing and management in a simulated
environment.

Introduction
1.1 Introduction

This network design aims to provide efficient communication between the Account
Department and the Delivery Department within an organization. The network should enable
seamless data transfer, secure access to resources, and allow employees to collaborate with
one another. The design will be implemented using Cisco Packet Tracer, a network simulation
tool that is ideal for creating and testing network topologies before deployment.

This design allows seamless communication between the Account and Delivery departments
through VLANs, ensuring security and network efficiency. The router acts as the gateway
between VLANs and provides inter-departmental communication.

• Inter-Departmental Communication: Allow communication between the two

departments, while also enabling the devices within each department to communicate
with external services like the internet or shared resources.

• Resource Sharing: Facilitate the sharing of resources such as printers, file servers, and
internal websites.Access.

• Reliability: Ensure that the network is reliable and can scale to accommodate
additional devices as the company grows.

• Cost-Efficiency: Implement a solution that balances cost and functionality, using basic
devices (like switches, routers, and computers) to meet the requirement.

Implementation

Devices Required: 1 Router(2911) ,2 Switches(2960), 4 PCs , Copper Straight Cable.

Procedure for connection:

• Connect all 4 PCs ,2 Switches, 1 Router with help of copper straight cable to switch, from
fastEthernet Port of PC/Server to fastEthernet Port of switch.

• Rename Connect left switch 0 to from its fastEthernet Port to Router’s GigabitEthernet 0/0
Port Similarly Connect right switch 1 from its fastEthernet port to Router’s
GigabitEthernet0/1.

Router0: @CLI

Would you like to enter the initial configuration dialog? [yes/no]: no

(Press Enter Key 2 times here)
Router>enable
Router#configure terminal
Router(config)#interface gigabitEthernet0/0
Router(config-if)#ip address 10.10.10.10 255.0.0.0
Router(config-if)#no shutdown

Router(config-if)#interface gigabitEthernet0/1
Router(config-if)#ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
Router(config-if)#no shutdown

This is end of router’s configuration. We configured its two interfaces gigabitEhternet0/0 and
gigabitEthernet0/1.

Observation need to be Taken:

Step1:
 Enter into simulation mode.
 Click on edit filters.

5
  Just keep ICMP filter and Un-check all the filters from all three tabs.
Step2:
• Click on PC0, Go to Desktop, Command Prompt.
• Now ping in simulation mode from PC0 to one of the PC in other subnet, let it be PC2
and has IP address 192.168.40.128
1. You will see PDU appeared on PC0, click on that envelope, go to outbound details and
record the IP header and ICMP header Information.
2. Click on capture forward button till PDU will reach at PC2, Click on the envelope
and record IP header and ICMP header information by clicking on inbound as well as
on outbound details.
3. Click again on capture forward button till PDU will reach back to sender with check
mark. Record IP header and ICMP header information by clicking on inbound as well
as on outbound details. Observe the difference in the details.

Conclusion & Applications

8.1 Conclusion

The installation and configuration of a file server using Cisco Packet Tracer has
demonstrated the effectiveness of this simulation tool in providing a comprehensive
understanding of network management and file sharing. By successfully setting up the file
server, we facilitated efficient data storage and access for users within the network, showcasing
the essential role of servers in modern IT infrastructure.
Throughout the process, we configured necessary services, such as DHCP and DNS, to
enhance network connectivity and user accessibility. The implementation of security protocols
and permissions ensured that sensitive data remained protected, illustrating the importance of
security in file sharing environments.

8.2 Applications

File Storage and Sharing: Centralized storage for documents, images, and multimedia files,
allowing multiple users to access and share files easily within a network.

Backup and Recovery: Automatic backups of important data to ensure data integrity and
recoverability in case of hardware failure, data corruption, or accidental deletion.

Collaboration Tools: Facilitating collaboration among team members by providing shared

access to files and folders, enabling simultaneous editing and version control.

15
User Access Management: Implementing user authentication and permissions to control
access to sensitive data, ensuring that only authorized personnel can view or modify specific
files.

Web Hosting: Hosting internal or external websites, web applications, or content management
systems on the file server, allowing users to access web resources easily.
8.3 Future Scope

IoT Device Management: As the Internet of Things (IoT) continues to grow, future
simulations can include scenarios for file servers managing data from IoT devices, providing
hands-on experience in integrating these devices into existing networks.

Multi-User Simulation Environments: Future iterations could facilitate collaborative

projects where multiple users can work simultaneously on different aspects of a network setup,
simulating real-world team environments.

Cloud Integration Simulation: As organizations move towards cloud-based solutions, Packet

Tracer could evolve to include scenarios that simulate the integration of on-premises file
servers with cloud storage, offering insights into hybrid network configurations.

Cloud Service Configuration: Future developments may allow users to configure and manage
cloud services alongside traditional file servers, providing a broader understanding of modern
IT infrastructure.

Network Management Tools: Users may gain exposure to network management tools that
automate the monitoring and management of file servers, enhancing efficiency and reliability.

Cybersecurity Training Modules: The platform may develop focused modules on securing
file servers, addressing common vulnerabilities, and practicing incident response strategies.
