Network Design ( There are 3 Tasks for this assessment) : Length: 500-700 words Reference list in APA format. 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(This refers to Packet Tracer). Based on your research you are required to clearly list your views on pros and cons of each available options for the completion of this assessment and select an option that you will use to complete this assessment. Task 2 - Setting up a Network: Using packet Tracker [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 addresses given below: Department Default Gateway Usable IP address Broadcast ID Sales (180.16.0.0/17) 180.16.0.1 180.16.0.2 – 180.16.127.254 180.16.127.255 Marketing (180.16.128.0/18) 180.16.128.1 180.16.128.2 – 180.16.191.254 180.16.191.255 Advertising (180.16.224.0/20) 180.16.224.1 180.16.224.2- 180.16.239.254 180.16.239.255 Online Sales (180.16.192.0/19) 180.16.192.1 180.16.192.2- 180.16.223.254 180.16.223.255 Product Support (180.16.240.0/21) 180.16.240.1 180.16.240.2- 180.16.247.254 180.16.247.255 Technical Support (180.16.248.0/22) 180.16.248.1 180.16.248.2- 180.16.251.254 180.16.251.255 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 vikramsharma.csu.org (type the message as Welcome to my network design)  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 vikramsharma.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.
