School Project
Summary
Designed and implemented a secure Wide Area Network (WAN) connection between two simulated branch offices — Ghana and Cape Verde — using Cisco Packet Tracer. The project focused on network segmentation, CIDR-based IP addressing, access control lists (ACLs), and traffic filtering to ensure only ICMP and HTTP services were permitted. Successfully documented network configurations, verified security policies through testing, and produced a working simulation model as part of AltSchool’s cybersecurity curriculum.
