Final Project 1

Introduction
Networking is referred as connecting computer systems electronically for the

motive of sharing information. Resources like files, applications, printers and
software program are frequent facts shared during a networking. The advantage
of networking is often considered sincerely in phrases of security, efficiency,
manageability and fee effectiveness because it allows collaboration between
customers during a huge range.
Basically, community consists of hardware component like computer, hubs,

switches, routers and other units which shape the community infrastructure.
These are the gadgets that play an important position in records transfer from
one area to a different the usage of unique science like radio waves and wires.
There are many sorts of community handy within the networking industries and
therefore the commonest network is Local Area Network (LAN) and Wide Area
Network (WAN). LAN community is formed from two or greater computer
systems connected together during a short distance generally reception, office
constructions or school. WAN may be a network that covers wider location than
LAN and typically covers cities, international locations and therefore the total
world. Several predominant LAN are often joining collectively to shape a WAN.
As countless devices are connected to network, it's essential to make sure data
collision does not happened when this units attempt to use facts channel
simultaneously. a group of policies called Carrier Sense Multiple Access /
Collision detection are wont to become conscious of and stop.
The use of Network Technology is growing rapidly throughout the large

educational community. The computer networked learning environment
facilitates the higher education by providing teachers and learners with
valuable sources of materials. Teachers can exploit multimedia to support their

teaching. Teachers also integrate authentic materials on numerous websites.
1
Electronic newspapers are a great change for educators and learners because
they are easily accessible and almost free. Besides, learners can obtain lecture
notes and prepare lessons beforehand or review the lessons from
anywhere at any time suitable for them. Computer network has been seen as a
useful tool for communication. With effective networking facilities, the
colleges and educational institutions are able to access the information they
require whenever needed. Teachers do not have to spend time for tracking
student-related information, because all the details are maintained on a
computer at a centralized location. The role of networking technology

redistributes the attention of the teachers and the classmates so that the less able
students can become more active participants in the class (APPLE MAHMUD
2020).
Some institutes in the Libyan state, including the Higher Institute of Engineering
Professions, lack the infrastructure for computer networks, and despite the
importance of computer networks in educational institutions, this project aims to
design an integrated computer network.
Project Aim
The purpose of this project is to design an integrated computer network in the
high Institute of Engineering Professions.
Project Objectives
1. To plan and design a perfect network in the high Institute of Engineering
Professions (Wire & Wireless) by MICROSOFT VISIO.
2. To implement the network perfectly by using Simulation environment.
3. To provide a security level by using a firewall.
4. To be reference for students.

Background Methodology
Research methodologies provide an essential outline of how a research project

was carried out, which research paradigms were chosen, what kinds of methods
were used, and the rationale behind these choices. This information is important
when evaluating the quality of a research paper. Thus, as Walliman (2010)
explains, the research methodology section of a paper should outline the process
and procedures carried out, highlight any changes made along the way, provide
a solid and logical explanation for all decisions, and be supported with relevant
evidence from the existing body of literature.

PPDIOO Stages
Understanding what is supposed to happen at each stage is vital in order for a

company (or consultant) to properly use the lifecycle approach and to get the
most benefit from it. We’ll review the different stages, what happens at each
stage, and what deliverables are generally produced from each stage (Cisco
2020) (keep in mind that the names of these documents change from company to
company, but the general content is the same)
 Preparer.
 Plan.
 Design.
 Implementing.
 Operate.
 Optimize.
One of the most important advantages
 Good planning of the network infrastructure

 Speed in completing the design
 Reducing project and operating costs and expenses
 Integrated and flexible network design

Phase 1 Prepare
The way that the Prepare phase is used depends on the current state of the
corporation. The first way assumes that the company has done little-to-no
research on establishing their business requirements, technology vision, and
technology strategy (among others). The second way assumes that the
corporation has these already established, and this iteration through the Prepare
phase is done as an update to these existing plans.
Generally, in the Prepare phase, a corporation will develop their business

requirements, technology vision and technology strategy. It is very important
that these are established before going forward to ensure that the network is
developed to be as close with the business requirements as possible.
If this is not the first iteration of the prepare phase, then a review of the current
business conditions must be matched against what was previously developed; if
any changes are found, the technology vision and strategy should change to
meet these new conditions.
What comes out of this analysis is then used to develop a very high-level
conceptual architecture of the proposed network. The recommended features and
functionality proposed in this conceptual architecture should then be validated
through proof-of-concept testing (Cisco 2020).
The typical deliverables from this phase include:
 High-level design (HLD)

 Customer Requirements Documents (CRD)
 Current state assessment Survey and Results (CSAS)
5
1.1 Introductory
In this stage we will present the design of the architectural structure of the
institute as well as the organizational structure of the institution.
The current state of the network within the institute and the problems that the
institute faces due to the lack of a network in it.
And the objectives that this stage of the project aims to achieve.
1.2 Introduction to the project
This project presents the design of a network for the Higher Institute of
Engineering Professions because there is no network for the institute to help
with education within the institution, the most important of which is distance
education, flexibility in dealing between staff, data transfer, and the operation of
educational programs and videos.
1.3 About the institute
The Higher Institute of Engineering Professions Majouri - Benghazi, known as

(Majouri Institute) in relation to the region in which it is located, is one of the
higher technical educational institutes of the National Authority for Technical
and Technical Education, which was established by Resolution No. 169 of 1998
AD by the Secretary of the People's Committee for Higher Education at the
time. (The administration of the institute 2020)
The institute offers a higher diploma for both male and female students,
graduates of general secondary schools and intermediate specialized institutes in
the fields of (architecture engineering, survey engineering, construction
6
engineering, network engineering, software engineering) in addition to holding
specialized courses in several areas to raise the efficiency and development of
students, employees and those who wish. Join these courses.
The institute is committed to providing high-quality educational material by

selecting the best teachers and trainers with the continuous development of
educational curricula in line with international scientific standards and keeping
pace with the continuous technological revolution.
1.3.1 The Contents of The Building

the institute consists of two floors, the first floor contains halls and study
laboratories, the Department of Studies and Examinations, the Office of Student
Affairs.
The second floor consists of several offices, including the office of the director
general of the institute, the office of the finance department, the meeting room
…etc.
1.3.2 The organizational structure of the institution
Figure 2: organizational structure of the institution
7
1.4 The current state of the network within the institution
There is no connection between the equipment in the institute, whether it is the
laboratory equipment for students or the devices of the staff from the
departments and the administration. This is why there is no network connection,
the institute.
1.4.1 Problem Statement

Although the area of the institute is large and very suitable for the work of an
ideal network, there is an infrastructure for the network, and this thing is
considered tragic for our current time of technical development in the world of
modern education as most countries of the world use networks in education,
which enables them to learn remotely and facilitate the study process and They
are also used in schools to facilitate education, management and transfer of data.
Networks have become very important in our current era and therefore we aim
in our project this design and implementation of an integrated network of the
Higher Institute of Engineering Professions - Benghazi - Majouri to keep pace
with our current era and its technological development, and all educational
institutions must provide an infrastructure.
8
1.4.2 For example
1. There is no link between laboratories, departments and administration
2. it works with a manual archiving system.

3. when transferring data, it is transferred manually between employees.
4. Does not support distance education.
5. There is no electronic library.
6. There is no sharing of resources between employees.
1.5 Project Objectives

1. to plan and design a perfect network in the high Institute of Engineering
Professions (Wire & Wireless) by MICROSOFT VISIO.
2. to implement the network perfectly by using Simulation environment.
3. to provide a security level by using a firewall.
4. To be reference for students.
9
Phase 2 Plan
Like the Prepare phase, the way in which the Plan phase is used depends on the
current state of the company’s network. A project plan is the next thing to be
developed. If no current network exists, then this project plan should include a
number of pieces of information that are required before the next phase,
including the allocation of the resources (financial and physical) for the design
and implementation phases, the development of a network security plan, and the
development of a project schedule to match the business requirements found in
the Prepare phase.
If there is an existing network in place, then the project plan is developed (or
updated), but only after an audit of the existing infrastructure, sites and
operational environment is completed. It is vital that a thorough audit is
completed to ensure that any changes to the network will not influence network
usability, will reduce network resource redundancy, and ensure an easier
upgrade experience (Cisco 2020).

download materials and download lectures from the Internet.
5. Provides large storage spaces to accommodate videos and tutorials.
2.6 Determine the approximate cost of the entire project
The approximate hardware and software cost are ($403,134.64).
Phase 3 Design
During the Design phase, the company develops (or updates) a comprehensive
network design. It is important that the information gathered from the first two
phases is used to ensure that the design meets all of the business and technical
28
requirements that were previously developed. If everything has been completed
correctly, the design will provide a network that is able to manage the everyday
tasks that are required of it and meet or exceed all expected availability,
reliability, security, scalability, and performance metrics.
There are also a number of different documents that are developed during this
phase that guide the deployment, configuration, and commission of network
devices and services (Cisco 2020).
 Low Level Design (LLD)
3.1 Introductory
We will talk about the program used to design the maps for the institute, a map
showing the current state of the network for the institute, a map showing the
29
current proposal for the network in the institute and explaining each part
separately.
3.2 Microsoft Visio
Visio began as a standalone product produced by Shapeware Corporation;

version 1.0 shipped in 1992. A pre-release, Version 0.92, was distributed free on
a floppy disk along with a Microsoft Windows systems readiness evaluation
utility. In 1995, Shapeware Corporation changed their name to Visio
Corporation to take advantage of market recognition and related product equity.
Microsoft acquired Visio in 2000, re-branding it as a Microsoft Office
application. Like Microsoft Project, however, it has never been officially
included in any of the bundled Office suites (although it was on the disk for
Office 2003 and could be installed if users knew it was there [citation needed]).
Microsoft included a Visio for Enterprise Architects edition with some editions
of Visual Studio .NET 2003 and Visual Studio 2005.[12]
Along with Microsoft Visio 2002 Professional, Microsoft introduced Visio

Enterprise Network Tools and Visio Network Center. Visio Enterprise Network
Tools was an add-on product that enabled automated network and directory
services diagramming. Visio Network Center was a subscription-based website
where users could locate the latest network documentation content and exact-
replica network equipment shapes from 500 leading manufacturers.[13] The
former has been discontinued, while the latter's shape-finding features are now
integrated into the program itself.[14] Visio 2007 was released on November 30,
2006.
3.3 Cisco Network Building Methodology
The network design methodology presented in this section is derived from the
Cisco Prepare, Plan, Design, Implement, Operate, and Optimize (PPDIOO)
30
methodology, which reflects a network's lifecycle. The following sections
describe the PPDIOO phases and their relation to the network design
methodology, and the benefits of the lifecycle approach to network design.

Phase 4 Implement
There are a number of different methods of implementation that are used.

Generally, it is good to setup and configure a test bed that will be used to
simulate the different parts (or additions) of the network design. Using this
method allows the implementers the ability to find any potential problems; if
found, these problems are resolved inside this test bed before full scale
implementation continues. Once any issues are worked out in the test bed, a full-
scale implementation can start; of course, depending on the size of the
implementation, there can be a number of logistical issues to work out during
this time. For example, it needs to be determined who is in charge of
deployment, configuration, testing, and operations of the network during these
different steps. The company must also ensure that any integration tasks with the
current network are handled carefully so ongoing operations are affected as little
as possible ( Cisco 2020 ) .
Once the network has been implemented, a series of tests should be run to
ensure that the operation of the new network is as expected and designed. If any
issues are found, it is best that they are handled as early in the implementation as
possible to ensure the issue impacts as few parts of the network as possible.

4.1 Introductory
At this stage, we touch on the topic of simulation to explain the lack of the real
application, so we use the simulation environment, and we will talk about the
simulation program used, and tables explaining the commands we used in the
simulation program
4.2 Simulation method
Simulation mirrors actual processes and methods in order to model system

behavior. The purpose of simulation, as pointed out by Banks, Carson II, Nelson
and Nicol (2005) is, therefore, to explore the outcomes and performance of
potential new and existing systems. Network simulation allows researchers to
test hypotheses through the use of a scaled model of the actual network, which
enables researchers to identify any issues that were not planned for. There are a
high number of different simulator programs available today, but the high-
performing open-source Graphical Network Simulator version 8.0 (Cisco Packet
Tracer) is amongst the most popular (Naser 2017).
4.2.1 Cisco Packet Tracer
Packet Tracer is a simulation, visualization, collaboration, and assessment tool

for teaching networking. Packet Tracer allows students to construct their own
model or virtual networks, obtain access to important graphical representations
of those networks, animate those networks by adding their own data packets, ask
questions about those networks, and finally annotate and save their creations.
The term "packet tracing" describes an animated movie mode where the learner
can step through simulated networking events, one at a time, to investigate the
43
micro genesis of complex networking phenomena normally occurring at rates in
the thousands and millions of events per second (Cisco 2021).
Packet Tracer is based on three learning principles: learning is active, learning is

social, and learning is contextual. Hence, it is meant to facilitate the creation of
engaging, collaborative, and localized instructional materials. Packet Tracer may
be used in a variety of ways:
 Group work
 Class work, Homework, and Distance Learning
 Formative assessment
 Hands-on lab reinforcement
 Lecture demonstrations
 Modeling and visualization of networking device algorithms and
networking protocols
 Case studies
 Multi-user cooperative and competitive activities
 Competitions
 Problem-solving activities in concept-building, skill-building, design,
and troubleshooting
Four problem types are well-supported by Packet Tracer:
 Concept-builders (model-building inquiries leading to student-created

explications and animations of networking concepts)
 Skill-builders (algorithmic problem solving in support of the
development of networking procedural knowledge)
 Design challenges (constraint-based problems with multiple correct
solutions)
 Troubleshooting challenges (diagnosing, isolating, and fixing the
simulated network from a previously bugged network file)

4.3 Pictures showing the network on the packet tracer
In this illustration shows the design of the network inside the building using the
packet tracer program, and the network has been divided into five sections, and
the network consists of a firewall, a router, 14 switches, a multilayer switch, a
wireless controller, and 4 access points.

4.3.3 Academic laboratories
The first section consists of nine academic laboratories and divides into two
parts, six IT laboratories, three for an engineering laboratory, two classrooms,
and for each laboratory there is a switch connected to a main switch, and IT
laboratories are listed in VLAN 10 in the main switch and the engineering
47
laboratories in VLAN 20 and there is an access point connected to Wireless
controller for students

4.3.4 Academic departments
The second section consists of academic departments for IT and engineering,

and there are classrooms and a theater for meeting.
As mentioned Previously in first section, listed in VLAN 10, as well as IT

department, the engineering department is listed in VLAN20, and there is a
48
printer for the two sections and Voice Over IP for the two departments, as well
as an access point connected to a wireless controller for employees

4.3.6 Classrooms and Administrative floor
The fourth section consists of classrooms for the ground floor, while the first
floor consists of offices for the administration of the institute and there are
printers for offices for sharing and devices listed to VLAN 40 at the switch and
50
there is an access point connected to a wireless controller for administrative
offices and halls.
Figure 33: Network of Classrooms and Administrative floor
4.3.7 The Data Center
The fifth cutter, which is a data center, is located in the middle of the building
and has a firewall for the network, a router to control the network, a multilayer
51
switch, and switch to wireless controller to control the connection points
distributed inside the building, as well as a server.

Phase 5 Operate
The Operate phase is by far the longest of the PPDIOO phases; this is because in
this phase a corporation is operating without making major changes to the
network. During this phase, the corporation spends the majority of their funds
managing the network which includes proactive and reactive monitoring,
performance management, trouble management, security management, and
capacity planning and monitoring, among others. Any minor moves, adds, or
changes (MAC) also occur during this phase (Cisco 2020).

 MAC Reports
 Support Contract Analysis (SMARTnet)

5.1 Introductory
In this stage, we deal with clarifying the practical application of the simulation
program and how it works by adding images that show the network shape in the
program, how it works and its application, and snapshots that illustrate the
connection between devices in the network and the results.

Phase 6 Optimize
The Optimize phase can happen at any time after a network is operational;
typically, it happens either when there has been a minor or major change in the
business or technical requirements of the network or is scheduled as a “check-
up.”
During this phase, the current business and technical requirements will be
compared to those used when the network was initially designed. If any changes
are recommended, then the phases start again from the beginning to ensure
consistency and an ongoing good design (Cisco 2020).
6.1 Introductory
At this stage, we will not be able to implement it in this project because it needs
the actual implementation of the network and monitoring its performance in case
of any defect, the network and its modification or poor performance of the
network and its improvement.
