Exercise 1: Identifying Appropriate Subnets Scenario

The document outlines steps to subnet the network 192.168.98.0/24 into three subnets to separate clients, servers, and future expansion. It calculates the subnet masks and network addresses needed to support over 100 clients, 10 servers, and 40 future hosts. The subnets are assigned as 192.168.98.0/25 for clients, 192.168.98.128/27 for servers, and 192.168.98.192/26 for future expansion.

Exercise 1: Identifying Appropriate Subnets


Scenario
The new branch office is configured with a single subnet. After a security review, all branch
office network configurations are being modified to place servers on a separate subnet from the
client computers. You need to calculate the new subnet mask and the default gateways for the
subnets in your branch.

The current network for your branch office is 192.168.98.0/24. This network needs to be
subdivided into three subnets that meet the following requirements:
• One subnet with at least 100 IP addresses for clients.
• One subnet with at least 10 IP addresses for servers.
• One subnet with at least 40 IP addresses for future expansion.

The main tasks for this exercise are as follows:


1. Calculate the bits required to support the hosts on each subnet.
2. Calculate subnet masks and network IDs.

 Task 1: Calculate the bits required to support the hosts on each subnet
1. How many bits are required to support 100 hosts on the client subnet?
Answer: Seven bits are required to support 100 hosts on the client subnet (2^7 -2 = 126)
2. How many bits are required to support 10 hosts on the server subnet?
Answer: Four bits are required to support 10 hosts on the server subnet (2^4 -2 = 14)
3. How many bits are required to support 40 hosts on the future expansion subnet?
Answer: Six bits are required to support 40 hosts on the future expansion subnet (2^6 -2 =
62)
4. If all subnets are the same size, can they be accommodated?
Answer: No, Ex: If all subnets are the same size then a subnet need 7 bits to support 128
host, but address with 255 hosts has been allocated will not required with that 7 bits

 Task 2: Calculate subnet masks and network IDs

1. Given the number of host bits allocated, what is the subnet mask that you will use for the
client subnet? Calculate the subnet mask in binary and decimal.
o The client subnet is using 7 bits for the host ID. Therefore, you can use 25 bits for the subnet
mask.

Binary Decimal
11111111.11111111.11111111.10000000 255.255.255.128

2. Given the number of host bits allocated, what is the subnet mask that you will use for the
server subnet? Calculate the subnet mask in binary and decimal.
o The server subnet is using 4 bits for the host ID. Therefore, you will use 28 bits for the subnet
mask.(đáng nhẽ chỗ 28 phải là 26 vì file đề lab thầy gửi từ trước là 28 nên e không sửa mà tính
luôn 😊)

Binary Decimal
11111111.11111111.11111111.11110000 255.255.255.240

3. Given the number of host bits allocated, what is the subnet mask that you can use for the
future
expansion subnet? Calculate the subnet mask in binary and decimal.
o The future expansion subnet is using 6 bits for the host ID. Therefore, you will use 26 bits for
the subnet mask.

Binary Decimal
11111111.11111111.11111111.11000000 255.255.255.192

4. For the client subnet, define the network ID, first available host, last available host, and
broadcast address. Assume that the client subnet is the first subnet allocated from the available
address pool.
Calculate the binary and decimal versions of each address.
