Perancangan Topologi Ring Dengan Spanning Tree Protocol Pada Jaringan Internet Area Perkantoran Bangko PT. Chevron Pacific Indonesia

Abstract

Bangko Offices Area  in  PT. Chevron Pacific Indonesia require a network with reliability, stability, and efficiency to support  the company. Currently, there are many problems  that occur
in today's network  such  as  the  link that was frequently interrupted,  no  backup  paths in the network, and the speed of the link is still not uniform. Therefore, it is important to design a new network  to solve that problem. In the new network design, used a ring topology plus additional backup lines, 1 Gbps bandwidth allocation, and the use of the spanning tree protocol. The design of the new network  is done by using software OPNET Modeler with the parameters are delays and throughput. The needs of planning for next 5 years will be fulfilled with 1 Gpbs bandwidth alocation and  the implementation of the spanning tree protocol will  avoid loops and maintain network connectivity. With the new network design will be obtained a good Quality of Service with the network delays  value corresponding to the category of delay and regularly use the service based on the priority determined.
