Cisco Networking Project using Packet Tracer

 Cisco Networking Project using Packet Tracer



Question:

AKShrestha & Son’s company is fast-growing company in Omaha, NE, USA with more than 100K customers. The company deals with selling and buying of food items. Which are basically operated from the headquarters. The company is intending to open a branch in Lincoln, NE. Thus, the company requires young IT graduates to design the network for the branch. The network is intended to operate separately from the HQ network.

Being a small network, the company has the following requirements during implementation:

1.       One router and one switch to be used (all CISCO products)

2.       Four departments (Admin/IT, Sales, Marketing, HR)

3.       Each department is required to be in different VLANS.

4.       Each department is required to have wireless network for the users.

5.       Host devices in the network are required to obtain IPv4 address automatically. DHCP

6.       Devices in all the departments are required to communicate with each other.

Assume the ISP gave out a base network of 192.168.1.0, you as the young network engineer who has been hired, design and implement a network considering the above requirements.

Switchport mode trunk command

The `switchport mode trunk` command in Cisco networking configures a switch port to operate as a trunk port. A trunk port is used to carry traffic for multiple VLANs over a single physical link between switches or between a switch and another network device such as a router.

 

When a port is set to trunk mode, it can carry traffic from all VLANs, or from a specified range of VLANs, and it uses tagging (typically IEEE 802.1Q) to identify which VLAN each frame belongs to.

 

encapsulation dot1Q 10` command

The `encapsulation dot1Q 10` command is used in Cisco networking to configure a sub-interface for 802.1Q encapsulation on a router or Layer 3 switch. This command specifies that the sub-interface will use IEEE 802.1Q encapsulation and will handle traffic for VLAN 10.
