madnan4/enterprise-network-simulation

A CCNA-level enterprise network project built in Cisco Packet Tracer with: Two branches (Area 1 & Area 2) connected via an ISP router using OSPF VLAN segmentation (Sales, IT, Marketing) DHCP for dynamic IP assignment NAT for internet access Inter-VLAN routing via router-on-a-stick

Enterprise Network Simulation (Cisco Packet Tracer)

This project simulates a full enterprise network infrastructure using Cisco Packet Tracer, featuring:
- VLANs
- DHCP
- OSPF
- NAT
- Inter-VLAN Routing
- Multi-area OSPF
- Basic ISP simulation

๐Ÿงฑ Network Topology

![Network Topology](topology_diagram.png)

- **Area 1 and Area 2**: Each has 3 switches โ€” 1 core switch and 2 access switches
- Each PC is connected to access switches, grouped into:
- VLAN 10: Sales
- VLAN 20: IT
- VLAN 30: Marketing
- Each router performs inter-VLAN routing and DHCP
- NAT is configured at edge routers for internet access
- ISP router connects both branches via OSPF Area 0

โš™๏ธ Technologies Used

  • Cisco Packet Tracer
  • OSPF (Multi-Area)
  • VLANs & Inter-VLAN Routing
  • NAT Overload
  • DHCP
  • Access Control Lists (ACLs)

๐Ÿš€ How to Use

1. Open `.pkt` files in Cisco Packet Tracer
2. View the topology and device configurations
3. Simulate ping, routing, DHCP, or NAT functionality
4. Modify or expand with security features (e.g., ACLs, Port Security)
