information: This is achieved by
using EIGRP as the routing protocol,
which allows for quick convergence
in case of a link failure.
4. Network topology discovery: This is
achieved by using LLDP, which
allows for the discovery of
neighboring devices and the mapping
of the network topology.
5. Dynamic IP address assignment: This
is achieved by using DHCP, which
allows for the automatic assignment
of IP addresses to devices in the
network.

6. VTP (VLAN Trunking Protocol):
VTP is a Cisco proprietary protocol
that allows for the management of
VLANs across multiple switches in
the network. It allows for the
creation, deletion and modification of
VLANs in a centralized manner,
which simplifies
management.
7. SNMP (Simple Network
Management Protocol) SNMP is a
protocol used for monitoring and
managing network devices. It allows
a network administrator to query a
device to get statistics, or change the
device configuration.
8. QoS (Quality of Service): QoS is a
set of technologies and techniques
used to manage network resources
and prioritize different types of
network traffic. It allows network
administrators to ensure
important types of traffic, such as
voice and video, are transmitted with
minimal delay and jitter, while less
important traffic is given lower
priority.
Applications

The applications used in the InnoFlex
Manufacturing Company's network
design include:
1. Wireless LAN controller: A wireless
LAN controller is a device that
manages and controls wireless access
points in a network. It provides
features such as wireless security,
QoS, and client tracking.
VLAN
2. Lightweight Access Point (LWAP):
A lightweight access point is a
wireless access point that is managed
by a wireless LAN controller. It
provides wireless connectivity to
devices in the network.
3. NAS (Network Attached Storage): A
NAS is a dedicated server for storing
and sharing files among the different
departments in the company. It
ensures that there is enough storage
capacity and that the files are
accessible to all the users in the
network.

software application that manages the
assignment of IP addresses to devices
in the network. It simplifies the
process of IP address management by

departments: Administration, Production,
IT, Storage, and Marketing, each with
their own VLANs and subnetting to
segment the network and implement
security measures.
The company's main switch acts as the
server switch and four other switches are
connected to it to represent each
department. The IT department manages
the wireless network using a wireless
LAN controller and lightweight access
points, with Quality of Service (QoS)
configured for traffic prioritization. The
storage department manages the NAS
server for file storage and sharing. The
company router manages the connection
to the ISP router and the Internet router,
with access control lists (ACLs) and port
security for security.
EIGRP is used as the routing protocol
for efficient distribution of routing
information and quick convergence in
case of a link failure. LLDP is used for
network topology discovery, VTP for
VLAN management, and DHCP for IP
address assignment. SNMP is used for
network devices monitoring and
management.
The goal of this case study is to examine
the network design of the InnoFlex
Manufacturing Company, the
requirements, the protocols, the
8

applications, and the QoS metrics that
have been implemented to ensure that the
network is providing the desired level of
service. The network design will be
implemented and tested using the Cisco
Packet Tracer simulator to identify any
potential issues before implementing the
network in a live environment.
Simulations
The simulation of the network design of
the InnoFlex Manufacturing Company
will be done using the Cisco Packet
Tracer simulator.
First, the different devices in the network
such as routers, switches, and wireless
access points will be added to the
simulation. The IP addresses and other
necessary configurations for each device
will be set up according to the network
design.
Next, the VLANs and subnetting will be
configured to segment the network and
implement security measures. VLANs
will be created for each department and
the appropriate ports on the switches will
be configured to belong to the
corresponding VLANs. Subnetting will
also be used to divide the IP addresses
into smaller subnets for each department.
EIGRP will be configured as the routing
protocol on the routers and switches,
allowing for efficient distribution of
 ECU3308-Computer Networks 02 Assignment 01

routing information and
convergence in case of a link failure.
LLDP will be configured on the devices
to enable network topology discovery.
DHCP will be configured on the routers
to assign IP addresses to the devices on
the network. VTP will also be configured
to manage the VLANs across the
switches.
In the IT department, the wireless LAN
controller and lightweight access points
will be configured and added to the
simulation. Quality of Service (QoS) will
be configured on the wireless network to
prioritize traffic according to
company's needs.
In the storage department, a NAS server
will be added to the simulation and
configured to provide file storage and
sharing capabilities.
The company router will be configured
with ACLs and port security to provide
security for the network. The router will
quick also be connected to the ISP router and
the Internet router to provide internet
access to the network.
The simulation will include testing of the
different QoS metrics such as bandwidth,
delay, jitter, and packet loss to ensure
that the network is providing the desired
level of service. The simulation will also
include testing of the various protocols,
applications, and security measures to
ensure that the network is performing as
expected.
Overall, the simulation using the Cisco
Packet Tracer will provide a detailed
the understanding of the network design and
its capabilities, and will help identify any
potential issues before implementing the
network in a live environment. The
Simulation results will be used to make
any necessary adjustments to the
network design to ensure that the
network is providing the desired level of
service.

IV. Results Discussion
The simulation of the network design of
the InnoFlex Manufacturing Company
using the Cisco Packet Tracer simulator
provided a detailed understanding of the
ECU3308-Computer Networks 02 Assignment 01
COL/E-012233_W.M.M.Weerasekara
network design and its capabilities. The
simulation results were analyzed to
identify any potential issues and to
ensure that the network is providing the
desired level of service.
The VLANs and subnetting were
successfully configured to segment the
network and implement security
measures. The different departments
were isolated from each other, and the IP
addresses were divided into smaller
host subnets for each department. This helped
to improve security by limiting the
host spread of network-based attacks.
EIGRP was successfully configured as
the routing protocol, providing efficient
distribution of routing information and
quick convergence in case of a link
failure. LLDP was also successfully
configured, allowing for the mapping of
network topology. DHCP was
successfully configured for IP address
assignment, simplifying the process of IP
address management. VTP was also
configured to manage the VLANs across
the switches.
The IT department's wireless network
was managed successfully using a
wireless LAN controller and lightweight
access points. Quality of Service (QoS)
was configured to prioritize traffic
