Networking 1 Project Scenario

Bahrain Next Generation Networks (BGN) is a company specialized in providing world class networking infrastructure and application services. Recent growth in the company and latest developments in the networking Industry; BGN is expanding into the following countries in gulf region as shown in Table 1.

Country	City	Staff
Bahrain	Manama, Riffa	60, 40
Saudi Arabia	Riyadh	120
United Arab Emirates	Abu Dhabi	40
Kuwait	Kuwait	48

Table 1: Number of Hosts per branch

BGN plans for future deployment and ask you as a network engineers to plan, design, implement and troubleshoot the network by using both IPv4 and IPv6 protocols. The company will host an internal email server, DNS and will use DHCP services. This report will contain your choices to plan, design and implement fully functional computer network for the company based on IPV4 and IPv6.

Project Debrief

Project is divided into two parts; first part contains detail report; that will be presented to the company about its future network. For more details refer to report section below. For step number 5; student must write about network communication based on TCP/IP model.

Second part of the project will include the implementation and troubleshooting of the project based on your plan and design presented to the company earlier.

Report

The report should contain information on the following issues:

1. IP addressing and subnetting scheme (IPv4 and IPv6) for the company.

2. Application layer services the organization requires.

(Explanation required how these are used on the network)

3. Network devices needed to implement the computer network.

(Devices listing and explanation of what these devices are used for)

4. Transmission media used in the organization.

(Listing the media and explanation of the operation of the media on the network)

5. Before the organization draws up a security policy the network manager wishes to know what protocols will operate on the network. Use the TCP/IP protocol stack and describe the protocols that will operate on this network at each layer. In doing so describe one communication between a PC from one branch to a PC in a different branch, use PacketTracer or MS visio to describe the data flow over the network. Mention also;

a. Network devices used in the data flow. b. Protocols needed for communication and what these protocols are used for. c. Addresses and identifiers used in the communication. d. Any other information you feel is necessary

It is up to student to explain this step using IPv4 or IPv6.

6. Choose a routing protocol (for both IPv4 and IPv6) and give the advantages of this routing protocols over other options.

Implementation

1.Implement this network in PacketTracer and upload a fully functioning version to Moodle. 2.Implement 2 application layer services using IPv4 and 1 application layer services using IPv6.
