1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 OVERVIEW:
Technology has played an important role in the hospitality and tourism industry over the last dec-
ade. Technology has helped reduce costs, enhance operational efficiency, and improve services and
customer experience. Both customers and businesses can benefit from improved communication,
reservations, and guest service systems. Technology has helped tourism and hospitality industries
replace expensive human labor with technological labor. This helps reduce labor costs, but also
helps avoid customer service issues. Information technologies have undoubtedly become one of the
most important elements of the tourism industry, since the generation, gathering, processing, ap-
plication and communication of information are very important for day-to-day operations in tourism
industry. Any tourism network should have a strong management, marketing, financing and logistics
functions. Along with this we are also focusing on creating an agile campus network solution to help build
high-performance core networks and highly efficient wireless access networks and enable networks to
be more agile for services. On agile networks, flexible and fast agile switches replace traditional switches.
They do not need to modify configurations for devices oneby one to change a service or take a long time
to locate a network fault. Users can flexibly and fast access an agile network and enjoy the same network
experience at any locations using any access mode.
1.2 CUSTOMER REQUIREMENTS:
• Quick response to enquiries
• High performance and availability for bandwidth for applications such as voice, video,
and IP multicast to provide more detailed and tailored information on tourism des-
tinations
• Internet service: Possibility of booking travel, accommodation and restaurants
online and be able to check out competition easily at the click of a button.
• E-mail system: mainly with peer exchanges, technical cooperation, making bookings
and other facilities. The network provides the Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), net-
work printer, and multimedia services.
• Users in branch campuses can access the main network through the Intranet.
• Users outside the campuses can access the main network through the Internet.
▪ Logistics
The logistic activities in tourism companies contribute to the improvement in the experience
and satisfaction of customers, workers, businessmen, suppliers and community, where
tourism activity is developed, constituting an effective business management tool, adding
value to tourism. The logistics discipline in tourism aims to support the main activities of the
sector. In the case of tourism companies, it is about providing services that complement the
main activities such as a hotel, whose essential function is to host tourists.

▪ Customer service
There are many choices today for delivering high-quality customer service. This can manage
by activities in-house or outsource to a third party. Basic customer service for sales and post-
sales activities can be handled using email and, for more extensive needs, phone support. A
customer-management system will make those activities easier, and is major requirement
for the undertaken project.
▪ Information technology
In e-tourism it is always better to have control over the servers and have an internal Infor-
mation Technology staff maintain it. The needs of company such as development, integra-
tions, migrations, patches, updates can be delivered efficiently in presence of IT division.
Besides for maintaining network configurations it is necessary to have properly trained staff.

Intranet
The DMZ provides a network segment for hosts that offer services to the Internet. This
design protects your internal hosts, as they do not reside on the same segment as hosts that
could be compromised by an external attack. Separation of services in this manner also permits
tighter controls to be placed on the router filtering. The firewall rules providing the segmentation
should be configured similarly to the rules used for the DMZ’s firewall.
Internal Network
Machines on internal networks should not communicate directly with machines on the
Internet. Preferably, these machines avoid direct communication with machines in the DMZ.
Ultimately, the services they require should reside on hosts in the intranet. A host on the intranet
can in turn communicate with a host in the DMZ to complete a service (such as outbound email
or DNS). This indirect communication is acceptable.
Proxies
Proxy communicates directly with machines on the Internet, it should reside in the DMZ.
However, this conflicts with the desire to prevent internal machines from directly communicating
with DMZ machines. To keep this communication indirect, use a double proxy system. A second
proxy residing in the intranet passes connection requests of the internal machines to the proxy
in the DMZ, which in turn makes the actual connection out on the Internet.
Firewall Configuration
Based on the network’s topology, the only packets containing a source IP address from
internal machines should come from within the network itself, not from the Internet. By
preventing IP spoofing, this possibility is eliminated, and the potential for bypassing IP address-
based authorization and the other firewall filtering rules is reduced. Use the same IP-spoofing
protection on any internal firewall as well.
Mobile Users
When you have remote or mobile users, pay attention should be made in a way to will
provide them access to the facilities. The mobile deployment should be made secured and
omnipresent in order to avoid loss to the company.

The company’s analysis about financial data is dealt by finance and administrator division of
the company. It is very important to analyse the finance data can be analysed at the workstations
allotted with the addition of third switch. The analysed data can be stored in the department’s
network attached server. There are total 3 switches in this configuration where in different
subdivisions of finance and administrations. The cat5 cable will guarantee the speed of connection
will be fast.

4.5 IT Division
The IT branch will cater to all the technological needs of other divisions may it be
configurations, making online platform, upscaling/downscaling the server configurations to make
best use of available hardware, and to develop internal software for smooth functioning of company.
This will call for multi-branched division, so for architecture of this division multiple switches are
arranged to cater the needs. One wireless access point for mobile devices. The divisions can be
isolated or merged as per company’s needs. The concept of parallel software development can be
enhanced using this type of architecture.

The access layer has been discussed in previous floor plans, but rising from floor-wise
connections it is time for discussing about distribution layer. As seen in the architecture diagram
above the access layer is connected in mesh topology with the Cisco Route Switch Processors in
distribution layer to assure redundancy and fine control on system. The distribution layer processors
and in-turn connected with campus core where again such high speed and high capability Cisco
Route Switch Processors are available to handle the heavy traffic and perform efficient switching.
These campus core processors are connected to:
1) Servers (Mainly DNS Server, Mail Server, Web Server
2) Via a switch to Agent and Cisco Unified CCE and
3) Via a switch to NAS and databases of the company

• Traffic between remote sites does not need to traverse the hub (headquarter VPN router).
• A DMVPN deployment eliminates additional bandwidth requirements at the hub.
• DMVPNs eliminate additional network delays.
• DMVPNs conserve WAN bandwidth.
• They lower costs for VPN circuits.
• They increase resiliency and redundancy.

10. IP Addressing
BookMyTrip incporation is a mid-sized to large sized company and will therefore have ample
amount of hosts. The IP addressing used for networks of BookMyTrip will be will be IP version 4
addresses, which uniquely identify a device on IP network.
The IP Address Class chosen for the project undertaken will be Class ‘A’ IP addressing. This is
because class A has IP addresses which will be enough for BookMyTrip employee strength.
For the internal network infrastructure we will use private network ranges ranging from
10.0.0.0 --- 10.255.255.255 (10.0.0.0/8)
This allows the greatest flexibility with the equivalent of 255 Class A address spaces to be
used as needed. The public address space can be difficult to get and can be expensive so the IP
addresses will be carefully mapped to private IP addresses in the company.
