Basic Networking Projects

1. Basic LAN Setup with VLANs

Objective: Set up a local area network with multiple VLANs.

Description: Create a simple network with multiple switches, routers, and PCs. Use VLANs to
segment the network into different broadcast domains. Configure inter-VLAN routing on a
router (or Layer 3 switch) to allow communication between VLANs. You can also set up a DHCP
server to assign IP addresses dynamically.

Skills Learned: VLANs, inter-VLAN routing, subnetting, DHCP configuration, switchport


configuration.

2. Basic Routing with RIP, OSPF, or EIGRP

Objective: Implement basic routing protocols.

Description: Set up a network with multiple routers and configure them to use routing
protocols like RIP, OSPF, or EIGRP. You can experiment with different routing protocols and
compare their performance. Set up static routing as well to understand the difference.

Skills Learned: Routing protocols (RIP, OSPF, EIGRP), router configuration, troubleshooting.

3. Network Security with ACLs

Objective: Configure and test Access Control Lists (ACLs) for network security.

Description: Set up a network with a router and multiple PCs or servers. Implement standard
and extended ACLs to restrict or allow traffic based on IP addresses, ports, or protocols. Test
ACL functionality by pinging or accessing certain resources.

Skills Learned: ACL configuration, network security concepts, packet filtering.

4. Site-to-Site VPN

Objective: Set up a site-to-site VPN using IPsec.

Description: Create two separate networks (e.g., in different locations) and configure a VPN
tunnel between them. You can simulate an office-to-branch office connection. Use IPsec for
secure communication between the networks.
Skills Learned: VPN configuration, encryption, IPsec tunnels, network security.

5. Wireless LAN (WLAN) Setup with WPA2 Security

Objective: Set up and secure a wireless network.

Description: Create a wireless network by adding wireless routers and access points. Configure
WPA2 security to ensure secure connections. You can also experiment with different wireless
settings (e.g., channels, SSIDs).

Skills Learned: Wireless networking, WPA2 encryption, security practices.
