NETW204 Course Project
This project includes three phases. You need to complete Phase I before moving on to Phase II.
Likewise, you need to complete Phase II before moving on to Phase III or the final phase in the
project.
Hi-tech Net Corp. is operating in three locations in the United States. Their main office is
located in New York, NY. They have two branch offices located in Chicago, IL and Sacramento,
CA.
You have just been hired as Hi-tech Net Corp.’s consulting engineer to implement their network
infrastructure. Both branch offices will be directly connected to the main office in NY via a
leased line circuit (point-to-point serial connection).
New York’s Office IP Information
The main office has four LAN segments: Executive, Engineering, Services, and
Native&Management. Each LAN segment is identified by a VLAN number as seen below. For
example:
Executive: VLAN 15
Engineering: VLAN 25
Services: VLAN 35
Native&Management: VLAN 99
The organization is using the following network address in NY: 10.150.0.0/16.

VLAN 25-Engineering
VLAN 35-Services

Task 2: Subnet the 10.150.100.0 /24 network for IL and assign the last IP address on the three
subnets to the Loopback 1, Loopback 2, and Loopback 3 interfaces of the router. We will use a
loopback or virtual interface to simulate the LAN subnets. This will speed up configuration and
allows us to create our topology without rewiring. (3 points)

Task 3: Subnet the 10.150.200.0 /25 network for CA and assign the last IP address on the three
subnets to the Loopback 1, Loopback 2, and Loopback 3 interfaces of the router. We will use a
loopback or virtual interface to simulate the LAN subnets. This will speed up configuration and
allows us to create our topology without rewiring. (3 points)

Task 4: Use the following network address (10.1.255.0/25) to find the WAN subnets between
NY and IL and NY and CA respectively. Note that there should only be two IP addresses per
subnet for each WAN link. Assign the first WAN subnet to NY to IL and the second WAN subnet
to NY to CA. (2 points)

Task 5: Use Microsoft Visio to design the current network topology. Remember to use
Loopback interfaces for the subnets in NY, IL, and CA. Use point-to-point interfaces to connect
the remote branch offices to NY. See the sample network diagram below. Replace the phrase
“IP Address” by the correct IP address for each interface on the routers. Include the WAN IP
addresses on the diagram as well. (7 points)
First Major Deliverable in the Project: IP scheme for all three locations (fill in the IP tables
above) and the Visio Diagram.
PHASE II (30 points total)—Due Week 5
Now that you have completed your first major deliverable in the project, let us move on to the
next phase in the project. You need to plan to implement the network. You will configure the
switches first.
You should write all required configuration commands with their Command prompt mode in
the table, middle column, under the “Required Information” instructions.

Note: You will probably notice that all the Loopback IP addresses show up as /32. To change
that /32 to the real subnet mask of the Loopback interfaces you need to type the following
command on each Loopback interface in the routers.
Interface Loopback 1
ip ospf network point-to-point
Router ID 3.3.3.3 ½
Type the command that displays all connected OSPFv2 routers. Capture the 1
output for your project and explains what you see.
Type the command that displays the OSPF process ID, router ID, routing 1
networks, address summarization, and passive interfaces configured on a
router. Capture the output for your project and explain what you see.
Task 7: Summarize the output of the commands used in Task 6. How can you tell that the
network is working correctly? (3 points)
PHASE III (70 Points Total)—Due Week 7
Task 1: Configure the NY router as a DHCPv4 server for the executive and engineering VLAN. (4
points)
Task 2: Restrict Access to the VTY Lines to only come from Native&Management VLAN. (15
points)
Task 5: Verify that your project meets the above requirements. Write a summary of what you
did and explain what you have learned in the process. (10 points)
