This project details the design of a Virtual Private Network (VPN) within a campus environment, specifically focusing on connecting various departments of Sheffield Hallam University using a secure network system. The methodology involves researching and implementing Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN) using leased private lines and Cisco technologies. The design utilizes Cisco Packet Tracer to simulate the network, employing Cisco 1841 or 2900 series routers and wireless routers. The project covers the implementation of default routing, dynamic routing protocols like EIGRP, Generic Route Encapsulation (GRE) for tunneling, and IPsec for security. The design aims to connect departments such as Administration, Computer Science, Business School, Engineering, and Medical departments, providing secure remote access and communication. The project includes discussion of hardware and software requirements, network design, and the application of VPN technologies to ensure secure data transfer and access control within the campus network. The project also covers the analysis and results of the VPN design implementation using packet tracer and GRE tunneling.
