Technologies Implemented:
- Hierarchical Network Design: Implemented core, distribution, and access layers to improve efficiency and management.
- VLANs & Inter-VLAN Routing: Segmented departments like Finance, Administration, and Clinical units, ensuring better security and traffic isolation. Inter-VLAN Routing enables seamless communication between them.
- Static IP Addressing: Assigned to critical devices like servers for stability and reliability.
- DHCP Server: Dynamically assigned IP addresses to streamline device management.
- Port Security: Configured on switches to protect against unauthorized access and network breaches.
- SSH Access: Enabled secure remote access to routers and switches for safe configuration management.
- OSPF Routing: Used dynamic routing protocols to optimize data flow and ensure redundancy.
- IP Helper Addresses: Deployed for DHCP relay, directing requests to the appropriate server from different VLANs.
- Wireless Network Configurations: Set up WAPs to ensure reliable wireless connectivity for staff and mobile devices.
- Site-to-Site IPSec VPN: Secured communication between remote sites with encrypted tunnels.
- PAT & ACLs: Configured Port Address Translation for efficient use of public IPs and Access Control Lists to regulate traffic flow, ensuring security and compliance.
