Creating VLANs on Fortigate and Cisco Core L3 switch connection

In this lab, I will show you how to create VLANs on Fortigate firewall instead of creating VLANs on Cisco L3 switch. You can also find the Cisco to Fortigate version in my posts. We will create 3 vlans as VLAN 10 – 192.168.10.1/24 , VLAN 20 – 192.168.20.1/24 , VLAN 30 – 192.168.30.1/24 and […]

The use of these techniques in normal life is illegal and the responsibility lies strictly with the reader. DO NOT USE THESE TECHNIQUES IN REAL LIFE ! In this training, I will […]

OT/IT Security – Internal Firewall Fortigate Implementation with configurations for your critical networks

An internal firewall, also known as an internal network firewall or a segment firewall, is a security system designed to protect and control traffic between different segments within an organization’s internal network. Unlike a perimeter firewall, which protects the network from external threats, an internal firewall focuses on securing the internal network by regulating the […]

PfSense firewall + L3 Core switch configuration with VLANs

In this lab, we will create 3 vlans and connect our core switch to pfSense firewall with a transit network. Then we will configure our firewall with these vlan subnets. LAN related traffic will not hit the firewall, because SVIs (VLANgateways) will be created on L3 Core switch. All the necessary permissions between vlans will […]

Multiple DHCP Server Configurations For VLANs

On this practice lab, we will configure two DHCP servers for 4 different VLANs. We will create the VLANs on the core switch, then we will assign the DHCP servers to VLANs with the command of “ip helper-address“. By this method, you will be able to use different DHCP servers for different purposes. Cisco Core […]

What is Netflow protocol? Deployment of Netflow server

NetFlow is a network protocol developed by Cisco that is used for network traffic monitoring and analysis. It allows network administrators to collect and view information about the traffic flowing through their network devices, such as routers and switches. A NetFlow server, sometimes referred to as a NetFlow collector or analyzer, is a system or […]

Cisco WLAN Controller with VLANs through multiple SSIDs

Let’s start configuring our VLANs and ports. We will create 3 VLANs on SW1 core switch. One of them will serve as Management subnet, others will serve as Office and Guest networks. Upon completion of VLAN and port configurations, we will start configuring Cisco Wireless Controllers and our Cisco Access Points. Both access points will […]

Cisco ASA Firewall deployment via Cisco L3 Switch with VLANs.

In this post, we will be talking about the Cisco firewall installation and integration with VLANs installed Cisco Core L3 switch. I know, probably most of you had some troubles while you were implementing this topology 🙂 I would like to share all the details that I configured on real devices. What do we need […]

How to create VLANs on Huawei switches?

Huawei switches are network switches developed and produced by Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd., a leading global provider of information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure and smart devices. Huawei switches offer a wide range of features and functionalities for both small and large-scale enterprise networks, including but not limited to: Huawei switches offer a robust and […]

How to setup Fortigate firewall with Cisco core switches configured with VLANs?

Configuring a Fortigate Firewall is an important step for any network administrator. It not only ensures that the firewall is set up correctly, but also helps keep the network secure from any potential threats. In this article, we will discuss how to configure a Fortigate Firewall using CLI, from its first setup to more advanced […]
