This project/internship entitled CISCO NETWORKING & SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR FOR LINUX BASED SERVER, submitted by MD ARIF HOSSAIN, ID No to the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Daffodil International University has been accepted as satisfactory towards the partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of B.Sc. Department of Computer Science and Engineering Faculty of Natural Sciences and Information Technology Påskelilje International University. We hereby declare that this project has been carried out by us under the supervision of Ms.
In-depth knowledge and great interest of our supervisor in the field of networking to carry out this project. Touhid Bhuiyan, Professor and Head of CSE Department, for his kind assistance in completing our project, and also to other faculty members and staff of CSE Department of Daffodil International University. We would like to thank our entire coursemate at Daffodil International University who participated in this discussion while completing the course.
For any kind of user requirement in the organization I have to work with many different network devices like switches, routers, firewall, wireless access points, media converter, gateway etc. In my internship period, there are many things that I have achieved from the organization and I think it will help me to work professionally with any other organization in the future. So for an organization more or less devices can be connected in the network and all devices in the network should work fine.
The administrator has some responsibilities such as monitoring NOC, ensuring the security of the device in the network and many more.
Internship Objective
Introduction to The company
3 covered by CCTV and the organization has its own network data connectivity across Bangladesh through various ISP providers.

ORGANIZATION
- Product and Market Situation
- Target Group
- SWOT Analysis
- Organizational Structure
An organization should always set a set of goals and achieve the goals with full dedication. In my internship organization, all goals were distributed to all management employees. According to the IT department, the goals are to achieve more with technologies in the future.
The main purpose of this analysis is to make a business decision to help the organization develop a complete awareness of all the factors involved. I need to use SWOT analysis for my internship company to make recommendations and strategies, focusing on leveraging strengths and discovering opportunities to overcome weaknesses and threats. An organizational structure is said to be a structured system in which a hierarchy within an organization is managed.
My practice organization also has a structure from Senior Management to officer positions which are given below.
TASK, PROJECT AND ACTIVITIES
Daily Task and Activities
- Network Components that used in the organization
- Networking Media
- Understanding TCP/IP Protocol and Ip Address Subnetting
- L2 and L3 Switches and Switching concept
- In the 2 nd month of my internship I have learned and gained my skill about the equipment and infrastructure of entire network that used in an organization
- In the Month Three I have gained very important part of my internship. In this section I have discussed about Linux server and demonstrate about its very
- Introduction of Linux Kernel and Centos 8 Installation
SWITCH: Switch is a multiport bridge along with a buffer that works in the data link layer of the OSI model. It is mainly to forward the data to each other, in the transmission of data, it can check errors. ROUTER: Router is a device-like function like switch that works in the network layer of the OSI model.
GATEWAY: Gateway can work at any network layer and is more than just a router or switch. It mainly works as transferring the data from one system model, after it has been interpreted and then sent to another system. There are two types of transmission media: one is bonded transmission media, that is, cable or physical existence, and the other is untethered transmission media that uses microwaves or radio waves without cable.
At my internship company, we have seen the use of this medium in many computer networking sites. 9 Microwave: It has a higher frequency than radio waves and can transmit large amounts of data. In a computer network, TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) is used to connect network devices on the Internet.
The basic concept of L2 or Layer 2 switches uses mac address and L3 or Layer 3 switch uses routing algorithm. A Next Generation Firewall (NGFW) provides network security, works with intrusion detection (IDS) and intrusion prevention system (IPS). Also, the next-generation firewall includes both application and user control and also has advanced malware detection, such as sandboxing.
In this section I have described how an IT engineer performs his daily task and activities on Cisco devices like switch, router etc. 11 Step 1: Now from the switch console cable we can enter its Command Line Interface (CLI), so we configure VLAN. The Linux kernel is a free software (also called open source), it has multitasking similar to the Unix OS kernel.
Most of the software is free and open source software available on the Internet, both as compiled binaries and in source code that allows modification of the original software. Now Centos 8 installation can be done in two methods, one in a personal computer, either duel boot or single, and the other one is by virtual machine applications like Oracle Virtual box or in VMware workstation.

- In the Month Four of my internship I have learned the Apache Web server
- Installing Apache Webserver
- Checking Web Server status
- Managing Webserver
- Adjusting the SELinux Permission
- Event and Activities
- Project Task and Activity
- To know about the SNPC Enterprise Application
- Installing the SNMPc Enterprise Server and Local Console
- Configure Local Console Session
- Creating Object of Network
- Design the MAP View
- Challenge
The configuration files end with .conf which is located in the directory and contains 3.1.4.4 Virtual Hosting for Webserver. And it also needs to create the site-enabled directory so that it can accept the server that will be served by a virtual host to the particular visitor. Now as for the virtual host to publish a symbolic link will hold for the directory of activated pages.
Then web service should search for virtual hosts located at the websites enabled directory. To get this, we need to include the command in the main configuration of Apache using vi editor. 19 After saving the file we have virtual host directory in place and finally we need to create the virtual host file.
Next we need to specify and display our domain configuration directories and file path to the '.conf' file. The virtual host file should now be enabled so apache knows it is ready to serve them. To set a custom log directory in the virtual hosts configuration file, the default configuration has been changed.
It uses the boolean name http_unified so that SELinux acts identically to the entire web server process. For another type of requirement in the organization, we need smart plans and different methods to apply in the system. A company must always work on the project and complete it to make an organization a better portfolio.
The project director distributes the task to the project manager and the manager goes to the coordinator and team member as follows. As an internship I have been assigned a project and I have work on the project task and doing a regular activity. Enterprise SNMPc is used to provide an organization's distributed network management system, which provides near real-time monitoring.
There we need to put IP of a seed device (router, switch, server) on our network. In daily tasks sometimes I have to face problems with user end support but by analyzing the problem I overcame it.
Competencies and Smart Plan 4.1 Competencies earned
Smart Plan
Smart Plan for an internship is a learning part of developing how and which we can make the best decision. In my internship organization, I work with my skills and sometimes I take guidelines from my instructor for solving problems. As part of a team, I spent some time giving my opinion or suggestion to my supervisor.
