Submission method options: Alternative submission method
Task
Task
Task 1 (Research) [5 marks]
In this task, you are required to research a range of options/methods that can be used for
network designing in this assessment. Based on your research you are required to clearly list
your views on pros and cons of each available option for the completion of this assessment
and select an option that you will use to complete this assessment.
Task 2 – Setting up a Network [10 marks]
You are required to set up a network consisting of PCs, routers, switches and servers. You need
to configure routing between routers, use any dynamic routing protocol. The PCs (clients) will
be connected to switches and switches to the router’s interfaces. Clients and Servers are

connected on different networks (don’t attach clients and servers on same network).
Client(s) <–> Switch <–> Router <–> Router <–> Switch <–> Server(s)
Use ONLY the IP address which you calculated in Assignment 2.
Perform the following activities and support your workings with screenshots [10 marks]:
1. Configure the PCs, Server and Router interfaces with appropriate network addressing;
2. Configure any classless dynamic routing protocol on the routers;
3. On any client, ping the client’s own network interfaces, then the local router gateway
interface, then the remote router interface, then the servers. Check full network conductivity;
4. Use the traceroute command from the client to the server. Include results of the traceroute
in your submission, explaining meaning of traceroute output.
Task 3 – Configuring Network Services [10 marks]:
Using the same network topology that you have setup in Task 1, perform the following
additional activities
1.DHCP: Configure DHCP servers and show that the client PC has successfully received IP
Addresses and other network parameters (default gateway, subnet mask and DNS IP address)
using DHCP
2.WEB Server: Configure WEBs server on the dedicated machines in their specified networks,
with URL as yourname.csu.org
3.DNS: Configure DNS Servers on the server device and demonstrate that forward and reverse
DNS are working from the client PC; test DNS Server by browsing yourname.csu.org from
client PC, DNS must resolve this URL to IP address of WEB Server
4.Firewall: Configure traffic filtering on the web servers to block ONLY HTTP TCP traffic
between one of the client PCs and WEB Servers and allowing all other IP traffic, provide
evidence of such traffic filtering. You should verify firewall by using PING and HTTPS TCP traffic
which should not be blocked.
A series of screenshots with commentary on each of the required tasks is to be submitted. The
submission must include a comprehensive explanation of each task and all the commands
used along with the output (or final result) in report format.
Task 4 [5 marks]
Task 4 will be given to you by your lecturer 7 days before date due. This is to allow everyone to
work in this timeframe and to prevent unauthorized assistance with your work. This task is
face to face questioning and answering with your lecturer, and must be completed during class
time before the due date.

Presentation
Please note that this assessment is asking for your reflections/thoughts and understanding of
the topic. Therefore refrain from directly copying and pasting from other sources. I encourage
wider reading to increase your knowledge base however proper referencing guidelines MUST
be followed (please refer to the APA referencing guide in student resources) otherwise your
work can be reported for plagiarism.
We have a very diverse learning group with students from different parts of the world, and it is
important to respect that with such a diverse group, everyone’s ability to express themselves in
written language can vary. Therefore it is important to respect diversity and opinions different
from yours, no matter where they come from. Let us all also be mindful that written
communication can be easily misinterpreted, therefore please be careful and avoid using
strong words so we don’t cause confusion and/or anxiety for our peers.
Please ensure that (all tasks) mentioned in this Assessment must be submitted in the
Turn-it-in.
