29.NetworkdesignproposalforairportUsingPacketTracer

ProjectDescription

Theprojectistodesignaproposalforsettingupanetworkinanairport.Theairporthas
threedepartments.
1.Airportauthority
2.Flightserviceproviders
3.Guests.

The airport authority maintains a server which handles the flight management controls. The
flight service providers should have access only to the specific server in the airport authority
network and not to any other systems. The guest users should have wireless access to a high
speedinternetconnection,whichshouldbesharedamongalltheusersinallthedepartments.
The wireless access should be using a common password. The guest users should not have
accesstotheothertwodepartments.TheusersshouldobtainIPaddressesautomatically.The
airport authority has 20 users, the flight service providers have 40 users and the maximum
numbersofguestsareestimatedtobe100.
