Project Title: VLAN Configuration in a Switched Network

Project Description:

This project demonstrates the configuration and implementation of Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) in a switched network using Cisco Packet Tracer. The network topology consists of three switches (Switch0, Switch1, and Switch2) connected in a linear topology, with multiple PCs assigned to different VLANs.

VLAN 10 includes:

PC0 (192.168.10.2)

PC2 (192.168.10.3)

PC3 (192.168.10.4)

VLAN 20 includes:

PC1 (192.168.20.2)

PC4 (192.168.20.3)

The goal of the project is to:

Segment the network logically without using additional physical devices.

Improve network performance and security through VLAN isolation.

Configure trunk links between the switches to allow inter-switch VLAN communication.

Verify VLAN assignments and communication between devices in the same VLAN, while ensuring isolation from other VLANs.

This setup provides a practical understanding of how VLANs work in enterprise networks and their role in network segmentation and traffic management.
