Our campus, like many others in the changing world of higher education, is strongly dependent on a wide range of data, which serves as the foundation for our educational experience and institutional memory. Examples of this data include academic records, research findings, administrative information, and digital communications. However, campus networks are naturally susceptible to a variety of risks, including human error, natural disasters, and hardware problems, which calls for a proactive approach to data protection. By creating and putting into place a reliable backup and restoration system, the "UNISZA Campus Network: Backup Using HSRP and OSPF in Packet Tracer" project seeks to protect all campus data from unanticipated calamities. This research examines the trade-off between data relevance and cost-effectiveness, looks into the intricacies of backup and restoration within university networks, and studies methodology and best practices. The system ensures data resilience during localised disturbances and catastrophic events by utilising an external router for HSRP to construct new paths in the event of a link failure, implementing a sophisticated multi-tiered backup scheme, and using Packet Tracer for simulations. The outcomes validate the system's dependability and efficacy by showing that it can safely transfer and store data even in emergency situations. In addition to highlighting the value of preventive data security measures, this project offers a scalable, reasonably priced way to improve campus network resilience and guarantee the uninterrupted continuation of administrative and academic activities.
