Abstract: This paper is about the computer network of Salem University Lokoja, which is located in Kogi State, Nigeria, in the western part of Africa. The existing computer network topology of Salem University Lokoja (SUL) is being investigated via interview and observation methods of survey. With the help of the Technical Staff of the University, information about the topology are being collected and confirmed via observation. The confirmed topology or layout is being design and simulated for behavioural outputs. Then, the outputs of the simulation of the topology will be analyzed, towards proposing a better topology for improving performance of the University’s network. CISCO Packets Tracer simulator will be used for all the designs and simulation. In the end a suitable topology requirement will be proposed for improving network performance in Salem University Lokoja.
Keywords: Campus Area Network, Network Simulation, Topology Upgrade.
