Abstract
The goal of any network infrastructure is high Throughput with minimum delay; all these are achievable by avoiding network traffic congestion. Most network infrastructures use switches to break these bearers of network traffic congestion and collision domain to achieve better Throughput. However, the method is not efficient with an extensive scale network, i.e., wide area network WAN. This paper adopts a virtual local area network (VLAN) that helps to improve Ethernet scalability and segment the network into separate broadcast domains, thereby improving network performance, Throughput, bandwidth utilization, delay, and security by filtering unauthorized groups from accessing resources in another group. The performance of VLAN deployments in the administrative block of Kwara state polytechnic is simulated using Riverbed Modeler Academic Edition. In the investigation, performance metrics like; packet delay, bandwidth utilization, Throughput, traffic sent, and traffic received are compared with a conventional case of no VLAN deployment. The simulation results show that VLAN performs better in all the matrices tested.
