    This submission template is a convenient document for you to provide your


    work and your answers for Lab 4. This submission template is intended to
    be used in conjunction with the Lab 4 Instructions document. The
    instructions document illustrates how to correctly derive the answers,
    explains important theoretical and practical details, and contains the
    complete set of instructions for this lab.

    Section One – Variable Length Subnet Masks

    1. Explanation regarding fixed lengths subnet masks.

    Subnet mask with fixed length means that the subnet mask has a permanent length, so
    that the address blocks are spilite into various subnets which owns addresses of the
    same number and has the same size and number of hosts.

    In such a subnet mask, hosts can't have different counts. So, if in a fixed-length mask,
    there are not enough hosts to fill the capacity of the subnet, and since the capacity is
    fixed, the number of hosts will be less than the capacity. This will cause the remaining
    capacity of IP addresses to be unused.

    2. Calculations and results for the given scenarios. Make sure to show your work, but
    you do not need to draw a diagram unless it assists you in answering the question.

    Scenario A: Subnet 66.114.124.0/22 is used to support 217 hosts.


    22 bits for network identifier—10 bits for host identifier
    2^10=1024 total addresses. 1024-2=1022 can be assignable addresses.
    1022-217=805 unused addresses.

    Scenario B: Subnet 54.88.181.128/25 is used to support 119 hosts.


    25 bits for network identifier—32-25=7 bits for host identifier
    2^7=128 total addresses. 128-2=126 can be assignable addresses
    127-119=8 unused addresses

    Scenario C: Subnet 50.63.202.48/28 is used to support 1 host.


    28 bits for network identifier—32-28=4 bits for host identifier
    2^4=16 total addresses. 16-2=14 can be assignable addresses
    14-1=13 unused addresses

    4. Explanation regarding re-allocation of subnets.


    Firstly, the re-allocation of subnets won’t necessarily solve the wasted addresses issues.
    Also, the re-allocation will also require changes on to existing routers, DHCP servers,
    switches, firewalls, and other network devices and controls.

    6. Calculations and results for the given scenarios. Make sure to show your work.

    Scenario A The organization is assigned the network described by CIDR entry


    172.226.0.0/16. The organization needs two subnets, the first to support 45 hosts, and
    the second to support 27 hosts. The organization allocates the first subnet as
    172.226.0.0/26.

    For fixed length:
    172.226.1.0/26
    32-26=6 bits for host identifier
    2^6=64 total addresses. 64-2=62 can be assignable addresses
    62-27=35 unused addresses
    For VLSM:
    172.226.1.0/27
    32-27=5 bits for host identifier
    2^5=32 total addresses. 32-2=30 assignable addresses
    30-27=3 unused addresses

    Scenario B The organization is assigned the network described by CIDR entry


    64.91.224.0/22. The organization needs two subnets, the first to support 390 hosts, and
    the second to support 75 hosts. The organization allocates the first subnet as
    64.91.224.0/23.

    2^9=512 total addresses. 512-2=510 can be assignable addresses
    510-75=435 unused addresses
    For VLSM:
    64.91.224.0/25
    32-25=7 bits for host identifier
    2^7=128 total addresses. 128-2=126 assignable addresses
    126-75=51 unused addresses

    98.136.242.128/27

    18 hosts—2^5=32. 32-5=27
    98.136.242.129/27
    Network Identifier: 01100010 10001000 11110010 100
    c.
    For fixed length:
    98.136.242.128/27
    32-27=5 bits for host identifier
    2^5=32 total addresses. 32-2=30 can be assignable addresses
    30-18=12 unused addresses
    For VLSM:
    98.136.242.129/27
    32-27=5 bits for host identifier
    2^5=32 total addresses. 32-2=30 can be assignable addresses
    30-18=12 unused addresses

    7. Explanation of the effectiveness of using VLSMs for scenarios A, B, and C in number 6.

    Scenario A
    Yes, as the required hosts number is relatively close to 2^5, so VLSM can be exactly fit to
    the required amount than the fixed length.

    Scenario B
    yes, as the bits required for host identifier save for 2 bits, thus save much more
    addresses.

    Scenario C
    No, as the second subnet is required to be the same size as the first subnet.

    9. Calculations and results of the allocations using VLSMs. Make sure to show your work.
