Abstract: Computer network has become the most significant issue in our day-to-day life. Networking
companies depend on the proper functioning and analysis of their networks for Front Office Department
Housekeeping Department, Food and Beverage Service Department. Food Production or Kitchen
Department, Reception area etc. Mainly interfacing with the network is induced by one of the other
user/users to share some data with them. Therefore, this paper is about communication among users
present at remote sites, sharing this same network HNS. HNS stands for the Hotel Network Scenario.
Therefore, in this work the network is designed using Cisco Packet Tracer. The paper describes how the
tool can be used to develop a simulation model of the AAHA Hotel of Bahawalnagar. The study provides
into various concepts such as topology design, IP address configuration and how to send information in
the form of packets in a single network and the use of virtual Local Area Network (VLANs) to separate
the traffic generated by a different department.
Keyword: HNS, CCNA, CISCO, IP, ROUTER, LAN.
1. Introduction of Hotel Network Scenario (HNS)
Computer network borne out of the need to use personal computers for sharing information within an
organization in the form of messages, sharing files, resources and so forth. Whether the organization is
located in a small area like as in one building or spread over a large area, the need for networking the
computers cannot be over emphasized. A Hotel area network is an essential part of Hotel system. A Hotel
network has several uses such as, result publishing, resource sharing, file sharing, communication, etc.
The Hotel Area Network design is about designing a topology of a network that is a LAN (Local Area
Network) for a Hotel in which various computers of different departments and buildings are Setup so
that they can interact and communicate with each other by interchanging data. To design a network for
a Hotel, which connects various departments and buildings to each other’s, it puts forward
communication among them. One of the purpose of networking is to reduce isolated users. The systems
should be capable of communicating with others and should provide the desired information. A
simulation tool offers a way to predict the impact on the network of a hardware upgrade, a change in
topology. Therefore, in this dissertation, a HNS network is designed using Cisco Packet Tracer. Cisco
Packet Tracer (CPT) is multi- tasking network simulation software that can be used to perform and
analyze various network activities such as the implementation of different topologies, selection of
optimum path based on various routers, analysis of different network configurations. This Hotel Area
Network Scenario is about designing a topology of a network that is Local Area Network (LAN) for a
Hotel area in which different department has some computers in different buildings set up their network
so that they can interact and communicate with each other by interchanging data.
4. 2. TECHNOLOGY TO BE USED
CCNA: Cisco Systems develop Cisco Certified Network Associate .CCNA is a well-liked
certification in computer networking that. CCNA is discovered by the Cisco, to identify basic
capability in installation and maintenance of medium-sized networks.
The technology is used for connecting various devices like routers, switches and different end devices
to communicate with each other and interchanging data. To construct a methodical and reliable
network, is scalable too. Portability is one of the characteristics of this work application of the HNS.
3. BASIC ARCHITECTURE
Figure 1: Basic Architecture
The basic architecture of HNS generally make use of various types of computers, router, servers,
switches, LAN connections, personal PC’s and Laptops.
4. WORKING OF HNS
This Hotel Network Scenario is to provide a well-connected, secure, reliable, dependable
communication among different departments. Several departments can simply split the required data
without any problem and can exchange their data without going physically to them thus conserving time
and energy. This job with respect to the Hotel’s Networking Scenario is to provide a systematic, secure,
valid, dependable communication among different departments. The work is done keeping in mind the
complexity and cost factor.

6. IP DESCRIPTION OF HNS
An IP address is a numerical tag assigned to each device (e.g., computer, printer, etc.) taking part in
a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for any communication. It is a 32-bit number. One
is IPv4 and the other is IPv6. IPv4 is of 32 bit and is represented as X.X.X.X i.e. each octet is parted
by a dot. For e.g.: 191.157.2.2 .In this project IPv4 is used. The assignment of IP address is reliant
upon the number of hosts existing in the network.
Depending on the number of hosts present in the Hotel; for this network the IP to be used is a class B
IP addresses i.e.
172.16.0.0 with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0. And this IP is then distributed among different LANs
and ports for communication.

7. PRODUCT FEATURES
1. This network is based on client-server architecture.
2. Tree topology is used here.
3. 4 client routers are present for the four levels of Hotel and they are associated to a server.
4. All the departments are categorized into various LANs, which are connected to the 4 routers
based on the sequence in which they are accommodated on the stoery.
5. Likewise, various departments limited into LANs and share router corresponding to their levels.
6. A request is made by any system of any department and it is forwarded to client switch, which
furthermore transmits it to the router and then to server.
7. Port-securities are there that are executed on various ports of the switches and gives reliability.
8. The data is then transferred to its connected router.
9. Router serves as DHCP server for assigning IPs to the host computers and also generally
routes the data to the desired destination.
10. All appliances are under the reliability of their respective passwords known to the network
executive only.
11. User can change the password any time they want to.
8. SCOPE OF HNS (Hotel Network scenario)
This project is give us an efficient methodology connected among all computers that are used in a
respective Hotel. Apart from interconnection, the project economical is made the topology by
keeping in mind about the cost. The most important points is authentication and security to prevent
the unauthorized access.

To Design the network outlook for the community Hotel network scenario produces the substructure
for all other exposure in the service framework such as security of the network, wireless area network,
mobility as well as putting the justification to provide safety and security, operational efficiencies,
virtual environments, and secure rooms. This paper describes the network design scenario approved
by Cisco, as well as where we can apply these scenario within the various locations of a community
Hotel network. Finally, key network foundation services such as switching, routing, multicast, and
