Network Design Proposal

Overview

This project presents a comprehensive Network Design Proposal for ABC Corporation, focusing on scalability, redundancy, and hierarchical network architecture to meet the organization’s current and future networking needs.

Objectives

• Design a scalable and redundant network for a multi-branch organization.
• Implement a hierarchical network model (Core, Distribution, Access layers).
• Ensure high availability and fault tolerance with redundancy mechanisms.
• Define technology choices (hardware, protocols, security measures).
• Provide network diagrams illustrating the design.

Network Architecture

1. Hierarchical Network Design

• Core Layer: High-speed backbone connectivity with layer 3 switches and routers.
• Distribution Layer: Traffic routing between offices, enforcing QoS and security policies.
• Access Layer: User connectivity, VLAN segmentation, and switch deployments.

2. Scalability Considerations

• Modular design for easy expansion.
• Dynamic routing (OSPF/EIGRP) for adaptability.
• Cloud integration for future scalability.

3. Redundancy & High Availability

• Backup links and failover configurations.
• Redundant routers, switches, and load balancers.
• Automatic failover mechanisms in the data center and branch offices.

4. Technology Choices

• Hardware: Enterprise-grade routers, layer 3 switches, firewalls.
• Protocols: OSPF, BGP, VLANs, QoS.
• Security Measures: VPN, Firewalls, Encryption, Access Control.

Network Diagrams

• Hierarchical Design Diagram (Core, Distribution, Access layers).
• Redundancy Diagram (Backup links, failover mechanisms).
