Cisco Network Projects: Design and Implementation

Welcome to my repository dedicated to Cisco network design and implementation! Here, you'll find a collection of hands-on projects where I explore various aspects of Cisco networking, from simple configurations to more complex network designs.

📚 Overview

This repository includes multiple Cisco-related projects where I focus on:

• Network Design: Creating scalable, efficient, and secure network architectures.
• Device Configuration: Implementing configurations on Cisco routers, switches, and other devices.
• Routing & Switching: Configuring and testing routing protocols like OSPF, EIGRP, BGP, and implementing VLANs, STP, and more.
• Network Security: Implementing access control lists (ACLs), VPNs, and firewall configurations.
• Troubleshooting & Optimization: Diagnosing and resolving common network issues, optimizing network performance.

💻 Projects

1. Building Network Design and Implementation

• Designed and implemented a network from scratch for a small-to-medium-sized organization.
• Created a topology that included multiple routers, switches, and firewalls.
• Configured basic routing (static and dynamic), VLANs, inter-VLAN routing, and network security.
• Set up a simulated environment using GNS3 and Cisco Packet Tracer.

2. Company Network Design and Implementation

• Designed a more complex network solution for a medium-sized company, focusing on scalability and security.
• Implemented multiple LANs and interconnected them through a combination of OSPF and EIGRP.
• Configured redundancy protocols (HSRP/VRRP) for critical services and created detailed network security policies (ACLs, VPN).
• Deployed advanced QoS configurations to ensure high-priority traffic (VoIP, business-critical applications).
• Simulated the entire environment using Cisco hardware and network simulation tools.

🔧 Tools and Technologies

• Cisco Packet Tracer: For simulating and visualizing network configurations.
• GNS3: For running real Cisco images in a virtualized environment.
• Cisco IOS: Operating system for Cisco devices.
• Wireshark: For monitoring and analyzing network traffic.
