An corporate network connects computers and devices across departments, facilitating data sharing and accessibility. It eliminates isolated workgroups by allowing all systems to communicate and access information. A corporate network may include local and wide area networks to meet operational and departmental needs, and can integrate different operating systems and devices. Packet Tracer is a networking simulation tool that allows students to design, configure, and analyze network protocols and devices in real time or simulated environments across physical and logical workspaces. It supports protocols across LAN, switching, routing, WAN, security, QoS and more.

2. INTRODUCTION : –
WHAT DOES CORPORATE NETWORK MEAN?
1) An corporative network is an corporate communications
backbone that helps connect computers and related devices
across departments and workgroup networks, facilitating
insight and data accessibility.
2) A corporate network reduces communication protocols,
facilitating system and device interoperability, as well as
improved internal and external enterprise data management.

3. CORPORATE NETWORK :- WHY?
 The key purpose of a corporate network is to eliminate isolated
users and workgroups.
 All systems should be able to communicate and provide and
retrieve information. Additionally, physical systems and devices
should be able to maintain and provide satisfactory performance,
reliability and security.
 In scope, an corporate network may include local and wide area
networks (LAN/WAN), depending on operational and
departmental requirements.
 A corporate network can integrate all systems, including Windows
and Apple computers and operating systems (OS), Unix systems,
mainframes and related devices like smart phones and tablets.

4. Increase Profits and Real-time access from anywhere to
the social information shared within the company.
Analyze interactions within the organization through
network analysis tools.
Integrate business tools and create communication
between people and objects .
Connect the various software used in company to the
corporative Network.
Keep up-to-date with all the activities done by those tools
in real time side the company.
Create an “idea market” on to communicate with
employees through open groups that could also involve
people from outside company.
Create workflows and tasks assignment around documents
and conversations.

5. Corporative Networks drive strategic business objectives. They help to improve
management processes in different departments.
Their benefits are translated into business that affect processes, sales, customer
management, human resources, knowledge management, and even improve
productivity across the board in all members of the company
1 - Update status to let others know on what you are working on.
2- Create exchange groups on specific skills and for knowledge transfer
A Corporate Network helps put expertise forward :-
The Corporative Network as the vehicle of corporate culture :-
1 - Develop community engagement and agitation with communication
management.
 2 - Quickly redefine the organization through the creation of groups and
departments in the network.

6. Two ways an Corporative Network can improve processes :-
1 - Manage communication flows through groups, private messaging, micro
blogging, notifications instead of emails.
2 - Create workflows and tasks assignment around documents and conversations
and involve external people as well as external information into the processes.
Conversations are not only about humans, it is also a matter
of tools :-
1 - Connect the various software used in your company to the Enterprise
Social Network.
2 - Structure the flow of information in one single activity feed.
3 - Keep up-to-date with all the activities done by those tools in real time.

7. Logical and physical workspaces
The logical workspace allows student to get a global view of the network
through real time or simulation mode. The devices are added, linked, and
configured on this workspace. The physical workspace gives a physical
dimension to the logical network topology. This workspace is particularly
important for wireless labs, where the distance parameter is one of the factors
that determine if a device is able to connect or not connect to another device.
The physical workspace is divided into four layers to reflect the physical scale of
real life environments:
Intercity,
City,
Building,
Wiring Closet.

8. TOOL USED: CISCO PACKET TRACER
Packet Tracer is a protocol simulator developed at Cisco Systems.
Packet Tracer (PT) is a powerful and dynamic tool that displays
the various protocols used in networking, in either Real Time or
Simulation mode. This includes layer 2 protocols such as Ethernet
and PPP, layer 3 protocols such as IP, ICMP, and ARP, and layer 4
protocols such as TCP and UDP. Routing protocols can also be
traced. Packet Tracer is a supplement to and not a replacement for
experience with real equipment.
