Construct the following network topology in GNS$3$ or Packet Tracer simulator. Ensure that all the

hostnames and network addresses are well labelled.

Fig. $1.$ Network design

Part $3$

Configure the router using the assigned hostnames and IP address.

Part $4$

Setup Virtual PC $($VPC$)$ in each of the four subnets as shown above. The virtual PC$$s provide

lightweight PC environment to execute tools such as ping, and trace route. For each faculty create

two VPCs for students and two VPCs for staff. Each VPC should be able to ping the other VPC in the

same subnet.

Part $5$

Configure the access control list $($ACL$)$ on Router$01$ such that any traffic from Students$$ subnets are

blocked from entering the staff subnet. Traffic to and from other subnets should pass through. Pinging

staff VPCs $($in both faculties$)$ from students$$ VPCs should fail. In other words, student in each faculty

should not be able to ping any staff computer in any faculty. Students can only ping students VPCs in

any faculty. Staff members can ping any VPC $($staff and students in any faculty$).$

Part $6$

Configure DHCP services on Router$01$ such that all VPCs can get IP addresses

dynamically assigned.

Part $7$

Use the following checklist to ensure you network is configured correctly.

Test $$

IT student VPC cannot ping IT staff VPC

IT student VPC cannot ping Arts staff VPC

IT student VPC can ping Arts VPC

Arts student VPC can ping IT student VPC

IT staff VPC can ping Arts staff VPC

Arts staff VPC can ping IT staff VPC

IT staff VPC can ping IT student VPC

IT staff VPC can ping Arts student VPC

Arts staff VPC can ping IT student VPC

Arts staff VPC can ping Arts student VPC

For each of your routers make sure to save your running configuration using the command write mem

For the VPCs use the save filename command to save the configurations to a file.

Finally save the GNS$3($or Packet Tracer$)$ project, i$.$e$.,$ the topology together with the startup configs.

Zip the GNS$3($or Packet Tracer$)$ project folder and submit it on Moodle with your report. Make sure

your submission is complete and has all the necessary files to run the simulation.
