THE FINAL REPORT OF LOGICAL
AND PHYSICAL
NETWORK DESIGN
Executive Summary
A logical as well as physical network model is developed in the framework of the report, which
discusses the total interconnection of the Prestige Auto Mart (PAM). Furthermore, a logical
addressing along with a naming schema containing details regarding the IP addressing schema
was additionally developed. The study discusses the security method that will help to defend the
network from various sorts of security threats, such as internal and external attacks. The
technical as well as monetary targets which will be reached after constructing the network for the
PAM are outlined. The key technological aim reached will be security, as the Melbourne office
contains all client data that must be protected. The security method that will guarantee the
security of the users has been addressed for security objectives. Furthermore, the routing
protocol, i.e. OSPF stands for Open Shortest Path First. OSPF is an acronym that stands for Open
Shortest Path First. Throughout an area or system, it is a widely utilized and recognized routing
protocol. It is an inside gateway interface created under a single automated platform. It operates
on a link-state routing technique in which each router holds domain information and chooses the
shortest path based network that data. The purpose of routing aims to discover new routes. The
cost evaluation is carried out as well in the paper by locating the device costs, which will provide
a notion of the total amount of money that must be invested for constructing the network for the
PAM.

, I. Project Goal
Following the delivery of the PAM network, the following project objectives will be met: -
All branches, i.e. Communication will be possible between Sydney, Brisbane, Perth,
Darwin, and Hobart.
Provides a purchase for an older or newer car in stock, or allows customers to place a
purchase for an existing car with the features they want. Whenever an appropriate
vehicle is not readily accessible in stock when purchasing a new car with customer-
selected choices.
PAM will work with overseas vehicle production facilities to acquire the appropriate
vehicle as soon as feasible and will contact the customer when their order is ready for
pickup. The system also offers a delivery service for customers, allowing them to have
their new or used vehicles delivered to a desired location.
Customers can order things and make payments over a secure web interface.
II. Project Scope
The project report includes a review of the organization's goals and constraints.
The IP addressing scheme is used to assign IP addresses to various subnets.
The constructed network needs to be able to handle massive amounts of data
generated by users.
The total framework of PAM is depicted by the physical and logical network design.
III. Business goals and Constraints
Business Goals
BG: Increase sales revenue: The primary business goal of Prestige Auto Mart is to increase
their sales revenue. To achieve this, the network design ensures that the customers can easily
access the online portal, place orders, and make payments seamlessly. The network design also
ensure that the on-site reservation software works flawlessly to reserve the most suitable and
