Determine the number of subnets needed.
Determine the number of hosts needed.
Design an appropriate addressing scheme.
Assign addresses and subnet mask pairs to device interfaces and hosts.
Examine the use of the available network address space.

Scenario
In this lab, you have been given the network address 192.168.9.0/24 to subnet and provide the IP
addressing for the network shown in the Topology Diagram. The network has the following addressing
requirements:

The BRANCH1 LAN 2 will require 10 host IP addresses.
The BRANCH2 LAN 1 will require 10 host IP addresses.
The BRANCH2 LAN 2 will require 10 host IP addresses.
The HQ LAN will require 20 host IP addresses.
The link from HQ to BRANCH1 will require an IP address for each end of the link.
The link from HQ to BRANCH2 will require an IP address for each end of the link.
(Note: Remember that the interfaces of network devices are also host IP addresses and are included
in the above addressing requirements.)

Activity 3.5.4: Subnetting Scenario 3
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this lab, you will be able to:
Determine the number of subnets needed.
Determine the number of hosts needed.
Design an appropriate addressing scheme.
Conduct research to find a possible solution.
Scenario
In this lab, you have been given the network address 192.168.1.0/24 to subnet and provide the IP
addressing for the network shown in the Topology Diagram. The network has the following addressing
requirements:
The BRANCH1 LAN 1 will require 15 host IP addresses.
The BRANCH1 LAN 2 will require 15 host IP addresses.
The BRANCH2 LAN 1 will require 15 host IP addresses.
The BRANCH2 LAN 2 will require 15 host IP addresses.
The HQ LAN will require 70 host IP addresses.
The link from HQ to BRANCH1 will require an IP address for each end of the link.
The link from HQ to BRANCH2 will require an IP address for each end of the link.
The link from HQ to BRANCH1 to BRANCH2 will require an IP address for each end of the link.
(Note: Remember that the interfaces of network devices are also host IP addresses and are included
in the above addressing requirements.)
Task 1: Examine the Network Requirements.
Examine the network requirements and answer the questions below. Keep in mind that IP addresses will
be needed for each of the LAN interfaces.
How many subnets are needed? __________
What is the maximum number of IP addresses that are needed for a single subnet? __________
How many IP addresses are needed for each of the branch LANs? __________
What is the total number of IP addresses that are needed? __________
Task 2: Design an IP Addressing Scheme
Subnet the 192.168.1.0/24 network into the appropriate number of subnets.
Can the 192.168.1.0/24 network be subnetted to fit the network requirements? __________
If the “number of subnets” requirement is met, what is the maximum number of hosts per subnet?
__________
If the “maximum number of hosts” requirement is met, what is the number of subnets that will be available
to use? __________

Task 3: Reflection
You do not have enough address space to implement an addressing scheme. Research this problem and
propose a possible solution. Increasing the size of your original address space is not an acceptable
solution. (Hint: We will discuss solutions to this problem in Chapter 6.)
____________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________
Attempt to implement your solution. Successful implementation of a solution requires that:
Only the 192.168.1.0/24 address space is used.
PCs and routers can ping all IP addresses.
