The scenario of ospf configuration has been shown in the snapshot.

It basically shows how a network works and its configuration.

Gateway: device sitting at a network node for interfacing with another network that uses different protocols. Works on OSI layers 4 to 7.

Router: a specialized network device that determines the next network point to which to forward a data packet toward its destination. Unlike a gateway, it cannot interface different protocols. Works on OSI layer 3. Bridge: a device that connects multiple network segments along the data link layer. Works on OSI layer 2. Switch: a device that allocates traffic from one network segment to certain lines (intended destination(s)) which connect the segment to another network segment. So unlike a hub a switch splits the network traffic and sends it to different destinations rather than to all systems on the network. Works on OSI layer 2.

2. VLAN (VIRTUAL LAN) CONFIGURATION:-VLAN project is provide the following features: Improved Administration Efficiency Virtual Groups Reduction of Routing for Broadcast Containment Enhanced Network Security

3. DHCP (DYNAMIC HOST CONFIGURATION PROTOCOL):-The dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) project allows devices to dynamically acquire their addressing information. DHCP is actually based on BOOTP. It is built on a client/server model. Some advantages of using DHCP are the followings:

IP addresses are supplied automatically to client computers


Ensures that clients always use correct configuration information Elimination of common source of network problems Client configuration updated automatically to reflect changes in network structure

4. ACL (ACCESS CONTROL LIST) CONFIGURATION:-This project is based on when implementing security policies. Access list is used to filtering unwanted packets.
