Abstract
Any communication network is vulnerable with various security threats. Among them unauthorized access is one the major examples. To mitigate such threats there are several mechanisms used in networking. In this project, virtual LAN, port security of the switches, inter VLAN routing and the access control list in router have been used. They have been simulated in packet tracer 6.3 software. It has been found that applying these techniques improve the network security significantly.
