The reason why author have to pretend the number of personal computer because, it is a
simulation
that
pretend
to
be
the
real
system,
the
system cannot be
run
using
an
application
because
it
is
simulated
in
Packet
Tracer,
and
the
look
can
be
so
messy
if
keep using the real number of Personal Computers in the company. The Simulation is to
do comparison between the current network systems and the design made by author that
use of VLAN implementation and the addition of clustering switch in the PT. Bukit
Makmur Mandiri Utama Network System.
5.1 Simulation Process
As
mentioned
above
that
the
simulation
is being
used
to
simulate
the
current
network
system
and
the
“designed”
system.
The
designed
term
is
the
solution
design
that
author
has
made.
The
application
that
is
used
for
simulation
is
CISCO Packet
Tracer.
In Packet
Tracer, the type of devices
has already
provided
without
need
to
install
the
IOS
image
of
the
device.
There
are
three
types of devices that are used for simulation in Packet Tracer:
•
Core switch = 2960TT – 24
•
Distribution / Access switch = 2950TT – 24
•
Personal Computer = PC
All
those
devices
will
fill
the
network
topology
of
PT.
Bukit
Makmur
Mandiri
Utama network.
