Due tonight midnight

Your manager has tasked you to create two network diagrams that

illustrate the Remote Employee Connection options for VPN

connectivity. These diagrams will assist IT in setting up employees and

branch offices to remotely access the company's intranet. You will use

these illustrations in your Week 2 Remote Employee Connection

presentation.

Remote WAN access for employees from home or on the road: The

remote employee must have access to the public Internet through an

Internet Service Provider (broadband cable or DSL), Cellular Service

Provider (smartphone, cellular adapter, or cellular hotspot), or other

service from a third-party provider (public or private Wi-Fi hotspot). The

company provides the VPN client software for users to install on their

mobile devices. With the VPN client, users log in using their company

credentials (user name and password) to a VPN server on the company

network. The company Active Directory controller authenticates the

user credentials. The VPN tunnel allows a remote user to securely

access the company's intranet, services, and network resources over

the public Internet as if they were working from the premises.

Remote site-to-site WAN access for branch offices: The remote site has

a site-to-site VPN connection that lets branch office use the public

Internet as a conduit for accessing the main office's intranet. This setup

eliminates the need for each computer to run VPN client software as if it

were on a remote-access VPN.



Create 2 Visio® diagrams illustrating the following scenarios.



• Remote WAN access for employees from home and on the road:

Create an end-to-end (from PC to VPN server) network

diagram showing firewalls, routers, switches, hosts and connections for

remote access from home or on the road to the main office VPN server

and intranet. Include a variety of Internet access endpoints, such as

broadband cable, DSL, cellular, and Wi-Fi hotspots.



• Remote site-to-site WAN access from a branch office: An end-to-end

(from PC to VPN server) network diagram showing firewalls, routers,

switches, hosts and connections for remote access from a branch office

site across a site-to-site VPN tunnel to the main office VPN server and

intranet. Include a variety of Internet access endpoints, such as T1

carrier, enterprise cellular, satellite, and cable broadband.

Copy and paste your network diagrams into Microsoft® PowerPoint

presentation slides. 





WEEK 2



Your manager has tasked you with creating a Remote Employee

Connection presentation for IT. This presentation will assist IT in setting

up remote (work-from-home) employees to access the company's

intranet. These employees will use a VPN connection from their PC in

home to a remote VPN server located in the employee's work campus.

Refer to the Visio tutorial and virtual desktop resource with Visio in

Week 1. You will also use the diagrams you created in Week 1,

incorporating the instructor feedback.

Create a 5- to 10-page Microsoft PowerPoint presentation using

Visio® including the following:

• WAN access options from the home to an ISP (Internet Service

Provider) from a variety of endpoints, including broadband cable, DSL,

cellular, and Wi-Fi hotspots

• Using Visio: Illustration of remote WAN access from home or on the

road from Week 1.

• WAN access options from a branch work campus to an ISP (assume

a different ISP with business/enterprise access such as T1 carrier,

enterprise cellular, satellite, and cable broadband)

• Using Visio: Illustration of remote site-to-site WAN access for branch

offices from Week 1.

• Major TCP/IP protocols with which the home PC is involved, from the

moment it boots up until its first IPv4 packet reaches the VPN server.

• Major routing protocols involved in building the forwarding tables in

an IPv4 network

• Using Visio: Illustration of how the first IPv4 is forwarded through the

network, showing:

• Source and destination IPv4 addresses

• Source and destination MAC addresses for the initial 2 hops in the

header of the packet

• Entries in the routers' forwarding tables

• Major routing protocols involved in building the forwarding tables in

an IPv6 network

• Using Visio: Illustration of how the first IPv6 is forwarded through the

network, showing:

• Source and destination IPv6 addresses

• Source and destination MAC addresses for the initial 2 hops in the

header of the packet

• Entries in the routers' forwarding tables

Note: It is recommended that Visio® be used to create network

diagrams for the presentation.

Copy and paste your network diagrams into Microsoft® PowerPoint

presentation. Do not submit Visio® files
