The headquarters of ABC threads, which is a large Textile Company located in Dallas, Texas has its network administrator, based in Houston. Mac is the network administrator and was conducting a routine maintenance on the network. While conducting the maintenance Mac came across a ticket opened by an employee. On further investigation Mac figured out that the complaint was that the employee was facing trouble in connecting to the network.
As the network administrator, Mac then began a trace in order to capture the communications from the employee (client IP host) that cannot connect to the rest of the company network or on the other side of the local router.
Additionally, the employee is able to communicate with all the other local systems without any issues except for the client IP host which is not able to connect.

What security considerations should be made or implemented in order to secure the communication of the network?
Criteria for this task:
Analyzed and described the possible issues based on the information provided.
Explained the information that a network administrator would seek in a trace file.
Analyzed and recommended the expected modification to be made in order to have communication through the router.
Summarized all necessary security considerations that need to be implemented to secure the network communication.
