University: MN503 Overview of Internetworking Report - Netsim Analysis

This report provides a comprehensive overview of internetworking, encompassing detailed configurations of network devices using Netsim. It includes step-by-step configurations for switches and routers, incorporating hostname and clock settings, and demonstrates the use of various IOS modes. The report further explores VLAN creation, VTP domain and password configurations, and pinging functionalities. It details router interface descriptions, IP address assignments, subnet masks, and ping tests. A significant portion is dedicated to troubleshooting common network issues, such as interface identification and pinging problems. Finally, the report concludes with an analysis of the current network configuration, discussing its potential applications in a business context, such as enhancing network security and employee grouping. The report is supported by a bibliography of relevant academic sources.
