Instructions:
This group assignment carries 70% of your total module assessment marks, with 60% of the total contributed by an individual component. A group consist of maximum 4 students. (Minimum 2 students). The total word count of the report should not exceed 5000 words. No marks will be awarded for the entire assignment if any part of it is found to be copied directly from printed materials or from another group.All submissions should be made on or before the due date. Any late submissions after the deadline will not be entertained. Zero(0) mark will be awarded for late submission, unless extenuating circumstances are upheld.
Scenario:
Company A is food manufacturer based in Kuala Lumpur. Its office consists of 3 departments: Sales, Engineering and Finance. It has a Sales office in Singapore located 350km away from Kuala Lumpur and hosts 50 employees. The following topology illustrates the network architecture and topology of the Kuala Lumpur office of Company-A and Singapore Company-B.
The Kuala Lumpur office has simple network architecture. Clients workstations are connected to an access switch, then connected to a distributed switch and then to the routers inside interface. The firewalls outside interface connects directly to the internet service provider (ISP) router. The ISP completely manages this router and the company-A has no control over it. A third interface on the firewall hosts a demilitarised zone (DMZ) hosting several servers. These servers include web, email and FTP applications.
The goal is to protect the internal and DMZ hosts from external threats. As a network security specialist, you are required to provide a security solution for company-A and company-B. All your configuration using ipv6 only.
There are some requirements in the above scenario that must be considered in this security design.
Client workstations (sales, engineering and finance) must be able to access the web server at the DMZ over HTTP and HTTPS. The web server should be reachable from the external clients over HTTP and HTTPS only. (Solution and configuration)
Clients should also be able to put and get files via FTP to the same server. The company requires implementing FTP with user and password is essential for each transaction. (Solution and configuration.)
Engineering and sales workstations must be able to access the Internet (to reach company B) over HTTP and HTTPS with DNS. No other protocol access is allowed to the Internet. (Solution and configuration.)
Client workstations must be able to check their e-mail on the e-mail server at the DMZ. (Solution and configuration.)
The e-mail server should be able to receive e-mail from external hosts over the simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP). (Solution.)
No client from sales, engineering and finance department is able to access clients in the other departments. (Solution and configuration.)
Layer two securities is a requirement in the company-A LAN. (Solution and configuration.)
Bastion host works as an application proxy. You are required to explain the solution in detail. (Configuration is not required.)
Connectivity between company-A in Kuala Lumpur and company-B in Singapore is a requirement. What is the best solution? Elaborate on the solution. (Configuration is not required).
Data transmitted over the network must be kept disguised and only intended recipient can read it. Hackers are unable to understand the content even they are able to wiretap the communication. (Solution on the techniques, no configuration is required)
The company requires implementing intrusion detection systems (IDS). (No Configuration is required.)
Implement VPN between Singapore and Kuala Lumpur. (Configuration is required.)
Implement SSL encryption between Singapore and Kuala Lumpur. (Solution)

Note: The solution in the parenthesis means that, you have to recommend, what should be done in order to fulfil the companys requirement. In this case, you do not have to configure any of the device(s) in the topology. The configuration in the parenthesis means that, in addition to the solution that you provide, you have to implement it by configuring the appropriate device with commands and setups.

Guidelines for the Report:

Document the results of your work in a professional and systematic manner, in the form of a computerized report. One (1) softcopy and hardcopy of your documentation is to be submitted.
Your completed documentation should meet the following requirements:
Table of contents for every detailed chapter/section.
Marking Table
Gantt Chart
Detailed Work Breakdown Structure
Introduction
Chapters / sections
Recommendations
Network configurations
Documentation of the configured device(s)
Conclusion
Contribution of each member
Appendices
Bibliography or References
In your document the report is to be written in a professional manner, paying due regard to the following aspects:

The report is to be written in the 3rd person.
The report should have a consistent layout and be divided into enumerated sections, sub-sections, sub-sub sections etc.
