Cisco Networking Academy Program CCNA 3: Switching Basics and Intermediate Routing v3.0

Overview and Objectives


The following case study illustrates the process and documentation required for a network design. This case study presents a scenario in which the XYZ Research Company has hired a network consultant group to design their network. To help you organize this project, the scenario is broken into eight phases, with a list of requirements for each phase. A worksheet is to be completed for each part. You should create a formal report, similar to one you would to the company, after you have completed the tasks. This case study requires the following accomplishments:

Use the resources provided (diagram and narrative) to set up the physical network. Set up an IP subnetting scheme using Variable Length Subnet Masking (VLSM) Configure the routers as required Set up and configure the switches and VLANs as required Verify and troubleshoot all connections Provide detailed documentation in the appropriate format Provide a written final report.

Scenario
The XYZ Research Company is a small company that develops high-speed wireless products. The main office occupies two buildings in Sydney; one building is for the Administration Group, and the other building is for the Sales and Marketing Group and the larger Research and Development Group. The Research Group and the Sales and Marketing Group will each have employees on all three floors of the main building. The XYZ Research Company also has a Sales office located in Melbourne. The company is implementing a wired network that should support 100% growth over the next 5 to 10 years. A logical diagram of the network is provided. Your task is to design, implement, and fully document the XYZ Research Company network. In addition to a formal report, the XYZ Research Company would like to see a prototype of the network before it is fully implemented, to verify that it will meet the companys needs.

Requirements
The preceding figure depicts the XYZ Research Companys partially completed, logical diagram of the required network. The company has also provided networking equipment for development and demonstration. In some instances, the equipment it provides does not have the required LAN interfaces. In this case, the company allows configuration of loopback networks as alternatives.

XYZ Research Company Requirements


18 employees in the Research and Development group Nine employees in the Sales and Marketing group Seven employees in the Administration group Five employees in the remote sales office Lifetime maximum of five servers on a separate subnet, regardless of company growth Use subnet 200.200.100.0/30 for connection to the Internet router Use public class C network 223.0.0.0 for internal addressing Use VLSM for IP addressing Expect 100% growth of current IP requirements when determining the size of subnets All networking devices must have IP addresses

Worksheet
1. Produce a logical diagram that includes:

Router and switch names Router interface details Network addresses The number of hosts per network Clearly indicate DCE serial interfaces Link Speeds

2. The company expects the use of VLSM design to maximize the use of IP addresses. A table is produced showing all possible subnets that meet the companys requirements using a VLSM design. Subnets that will not be used are to be clearly identified in the table.

The following is a sample table layout for recording the VLSM design.
Number of Host Addresses Required Network Address Subnet Mask Max Number of Hosts Possible In Use (Yes/No) Network Name

3. For each location, including the Internet, an additional set of tables is required.
These tables assist with design and development activities and are used when configuring switches and routers. A separate table should be created for each router and switch at each location. (NOTE: Some fields in the switch table will be completed in Scenario (part 4).)

Following is a sample layout for routers. Location: ____________________ Router Name: ____________________
Interface or /Sub interface type/number Descriptio n and Purpose DCE/DTE (if applicable) Speed or Clock Rate Network Name Network Number Interface IP Address Subnet Mask

Phase 2: Routing Protocols


The company wants a recommendation for a routing protocol for the network. Worksheet The possible routing protocol alternatives and properties are identified in a brainstorming session. Each property is assigned a positive, neutral, or negative value for each of the routing protocols. Alternatively, a numerical value can be used; for example, 0 to 4. A recommendation is made and the decision matrix is presented to the company.
Routing Protocol Property 1 (+, neutral, - , or a numeric value) Property 2 Property 3 Property 4 Total

Groups Recommendation for Routing Protocol: ______________________ Instructors Signature:_________________________Date:_______________

Phase 3: OSPF
The company has decided to use OSPF as the routing protocol. XYZ Research Company Requirements

OSPF process ID of 50 All routers in a single area: area 0 Loopback address assigned to each router Loopback address used as the OSPF router ID There is one multi-access network in the administration building, so a DR must be elected Determine whether to use the router ID or interface priority to determine the DR in the administration building

Worksheet 1. Update the IP address tables produced previously to include the loopback addresses. 2. Make a decision about which router and router interface will be the DR. The group discusses these issues, records the major points of the discussion, documents them, and makes recommendations. Explain your reasons for choosing the router ID or interface priority to determine DR. Explain your reasons for choosing router _______________ as DR in the administration building. 3. Will a DR be elected on the serial connections between buildings and the remote branch office? ________ Why? ______________________ Update the diagram with OSPF information. The location tables, router, IP address table, and diagram are modified to include this information and are presented to the company.

Phase 4: VLANs
Now the company wants information about VLANs, which are required in the main building. The company has provided the following information: XYZ Research Company Requirements

There are 18 Research and Development employees There are nine Sales and Marketing employees Eight Research personnel and two Sales personnel are on Floor 3 Six Research personnel and four Sales personnel are on Floor 2 Four Research personnel and three Sales personnel are on Floor 1 Floor 1 also has the Server LAN. Five server machines are planned, but only one is available at this time. There are separate rooms on each floor for the workgroups There is sufficient space in each room to accommodate growth The 100% predicted growth will occur uniformly per floor Switches in the main building are connected in a loop such that if one switch fails, an alternative path is used There is one switch per floor, shared among the different subnets Spanning tree root is to be placed in an optimal position

Worksheet 1. Tables documenting Switch VLAN port assignments are produced for the available demonstration equipment. Unassigned ports are to remain in the default VLAN. The following table is an example of the documentation required by the company. Switch Details
Switch Name Model # of Ports Location IP Address Gateway Management VLAN VTP Mode VTP Domain STP Root

The company requires a similar diagram for the main building. The main building has three floors and will use CAT 5 throughout for the LANs. The diagram should include the following:

The length and number of cable runs The labeling convention for each of the outlets and patch panel. Generic room names and port names, such as IDFFloor 1, Floor1Room1Port1. HCC1:Floor1Room1Port1 ,and VCC1:Floor1XFloor2Port1, are acceptable. Use any standards that apply in the region.

The horizontal cable runs on each floor will be no more than 30 meters. The length of cable needed between consecutive floors is 15 meters. The documentation should include a description of how cross connects for all trunks will be patched for the required logical topology. List the pinout (straight or crossover) cable types.

Phase 6: Test Network


The company requires a demonstration of the main building networks functionality and asks that a logically equivalent network be wired up with the equipment provided. The company requires an http server machine to be set up in the Server VLAN, and at least a single client host on each of the other VLANs. The company requires that all devices be configured. All configurations, routing tables, and VLAN databases are to be recorded as part of the documentation. The company specifies the following network testing and is receptive to suggestions or recommendations about other testing, as well as future network improvements. Testing and Verifying Strategy 1. Demonstrate routing between main building VLANs.
From VLAN/SW To VLAN/SW Protocol Hosts Pass/Fail

2. Demonstrate access of all hosts to each other and HTTP service on the server machine.
From Host To Host Pass/Fail

3. Demonstrate the behavior of the inter-network when a single trunk link fails.
From Host To Host Trunk Up/Down Route Pass/Fail

Phase 7: Final Demonstration


The company requests a demonstration of the complete company inter-network. Configure all devices and access the Internet Server address from all networks shown. The company has selected the OSPF routing protocol with process ID of 50. Because the network is quite small, a single OSPF area is acceptable. Record all configurations, routing tables, and outputs from connectivity testing and store them on an FTP server and a floppy disk. Test summary results:
From Host To Host Path Tested Route Taken Pass/Fail

CCNA 3 Case Study Deliverables


After the case study problem is solved, the network has been successfully designed, and the prototype implemented and tested, you must provide a final report to your instructor. This report should include thorough and well-organized documentation of the process. We highly recommend that all tables be completed using a spreadsheet program such as Microsoft Excel. Cisco Network Designer, Visio, or a paint program can be used for the network diagrams. The following items must be included in the final report:

Outline Summary of the company and network requirements Discussion of the implementation of IP address and VLSM Discussion of the implementation of routing Discussion of the implementation of VLANs, STP, and switches Discussion of the physical layer design and equipment Discussion of testing and verification strategies Output of testing and verification commands from routers Output of testing and verification commands for switches Recommendations for future network upgrades Logical diagram Physical diagram IP addressing table Router interface table Switch table PC addressing table Routing protocol matrix Equipment table Router configurations (printed and floppy) Switch configurations (printed and floppy) Testing results (printed and floppy)
