Secure Network Design and Implementation

Purpose of the assessment

This assignment assesses the following Unit Learning Outcomes; students should be able to demonstrate their achievements in them.

• Describe architectural VPN design for small, medium and large businesses and corporations
• Report on the health of the existing VPN architecture, solution, data, application, and technology
• Discuss the appropriate security design and solutions for varieties of organisations
• Report on the current and future state of the management of VPN infrastructure and its technologies
• Interpret a roadmap process to transform the VPN architecture to support long- term organisations' goals
• Implement a process to support the administration and the management of VPN

Assignment Description

Tasks:

There are two parts to this assignment, i.e. part A and part B.

1. Investigate, design and develop a suitable VPN network for a fictitious company in Australia (National Cyber Security Services Inc.) by addressing the following criteria. See detailed instruction in the next section.

2. Presentation.

Part A description

National Cyber Security Services Inc. is a fictitious company in Australia and currently operating in Brisbane. Recently, National Cyber Security Services Inc. is planning to expand their operations in Melbourne and Sydney. You have been contracted to analyse various options and develop a VPN network design so that three sites can be connected securely. This is in addition to remote users (5 from Melbourne and three from Sydney) who should be able to access their work from the company site while travelling.

1. Design a network for National Cyber Security Services Inc.

2. Build VPN services for the users. The network solution would be built on a simulator (such as Packet Tracer or NetSim) and include establishing VPN connections from remote sites to main branch in Brisbane.

3. You need to select the IP address of your network at main branch based on your group ID of the third subnet such as: 10.0.g.x, where g is your group ID. The other branches at Sydney and Melbourne can use the same ip or different IP but with third subnet equal to your group ID. You need to use different IP for WAN connection.

Report must include:

• Introduction
• Scopes and Limitations
• Requirements (Network parts and VPN service parts)
• Solution Design
o Logical Design
o Physical Design
o Network Topologies
o IP addressing
o Security features and Policies

o Redundancy and Failover plans
o VPN service Deployment and implementation
• Refer the sample document included in below for network design, and consider how to deploy and implement relevant VPN services onto the network. You need to choose the right type of VPNs and protocols that satisfy the requirements for remote and branch to branch connectivity.

Part B description

Presentation slides should be submitted in Moodle prior to the presentation for marking. No other options (e.g. hard copy, memory stick, website, email etc) will be considered but the presentation file submitted in Moodle. Students need to demonstrate their work in Lab 11. The demonstration will include viva voce (oral test) questions as well. The final mark of Part A of this assignment might be reduced to half based on students' presentation.
