Title
Computer Network Simulation Of Firewall And Voip Performance Monitoring
Abstract
Fast growing in communication technology has influenced global changes and challenges appear in the field of network security issues. Security solutions must be efficient and operate in a way to deal with threats, reject and stop the network intruders and Trojans. The simulated network of Salahaddin university new campus is planned to build on an area of 3000X3000 meter square. The network consists of many primary and secondary devices. It mainly consists of one core switch that provides a very high data transfer through connecting all the collected positions by a variety of cable media to the entire network switches which are installed in each college location. The network design of the university presidency is similar to the network design at each college. The mentioned switch obtains the services from a router that isolates the network from the cloud which supports the services of internet to the network. The firewall is connected to the switch that connects the main server and cloud together. This work focuses on undertaking a simulation to analyze and examine the performance of the whole network when two scenarios are implemented. The first one when firewall devices are used and the second when the are not used, since the project of building Salahaddin University-Erbil new campus is at the initial stage. Thus, the researchers think that it is very important to figure out the drawbacks and deadlocks of using firewall upon each branch of the network and overall network performance before the submitting the final networks design that is going to be implemented and installed. This will indicate many differences on the construction, for example, the network panels ways, the cable collecting locations, network channels and many other devices that are fixing components depending on the media types. The results show that using or adding of firewall device to the university campus computer network will improve the overall network performance though increasing the data stream on many network sections and sectors.
