Abstract

Fundamental to the Network Administrator's consideration of risk on a network are issues of security namely; confidentiality, integrity and availability of information assets. The ability to effectively and efficiently manage the network and make room for growth without degradation in network performance are equally considerable concerns. The segmentation of a significantly large Local Area Network with a possible annual growth rate of over 10% is undoubtedly the surest way to effectively manage the network, ensure security of information assets and make it scalable. This paper seeks to assess the Pentecost University College(PUC) campus network at Sowutuom to determine how optimally segmented it is and the most practical option of using Virtual LANs to optimize the segmentation for effective and efficient security, management and scalability. Based on the information gathered and analysis carried out on the network, a proposal is advanced to enhance the segmentation of the campus network with an eye towards the future growth.
