QUESTION 1 [80 MARKS]

Scenario
You will create a small network that requires connecting network devices and configuring host
computers and one Cisco router for basic network connectivity. Switch1 has a default
configuration, and does not require additional configuration. Common utility commands will
be used to test and document the network. The 0th subnet is used.

Task 1 – Identify Information and Subnet Calculation

Given an IP address and mask of 195.156.75.20 / 24 (address / mask), design an IP


addressing scheme that satisfies the following requirements which shown in Table 1:

Table 1: Network Requirement


Subnet Number of Hosts
Subnet A 31
Subnet B 15
CONFIDENTIAL 2324II/BCN1053

Calculate and complete the Table 2 and Table 3


Table 2
Subnet A
Specification Student Answer
Number of host bits in the subnet (1)
Subnet Address (2)
First Usable IP / Host Address (3)
Last Usable IP / Host Address (4)
Broadcast Address (5)

Table 3
Subnet B
Specification Student Answer
Number of host bits in the subnet (6)
Subnet Address (7)
First Usable IP / Host Address (8)
Last Usable IP / Host Address (9)
Broadcast Address (10)

**Each question allocates 2 Marks which include the correction calculation part.
[20 Marks]
[CO1, PO1, C3]

Task 2 – Design IP Address

The host computers will use the LAST USABLE IP / HOST address in the subnet.
The network router will use the FIRST USABLE IP / HOST address.

Write down the IP address information for each device in the Table 4:

Router1 interface Gig 0/0 ◼ Set the description “Link to Subnet A”
(remove the double quote mark (“”))
◼ Set the layer 3 Address
Router1 interface Gig 0/1 ◼ Set the description “Link to Subnet B”
(remove the double quote mark (“”))
◼ Set the layer 3 Address
[26 Marks]
[CO3, PO3, C3]

Task 5 – Verify Network Connectivity


Step 1: Use the ping command to verify network connectivity.
Use the Table 5 to methodically verify connectivity with each network device. Take
corrective action to establish connectivity if a test fails:

Table 5: Network Connectivity Verification


From To IP Address you Ping Results (SUCCESS or
want to ping FAILED)
Host1 NIC IP Address (23) (28)
Host1 Router1, Fa0/1 (24) (29)
Host1 Host2 (25) (30)
Host2 NIC IP Address (26) (31)
Host2 Router1, Fa0/0 (27) (32)
**Each question allocates 0.5 Mark.
