Objectives
Part 1: Design an IPv4 Network Subnetting Scheme
Part 2: Configure the Devices
Part 3: Test and Troubleshoot the Network
Background / Scenario
In this activity, you will subnet the Customer network into multiple subnets. The subnet scheme should be
based on the number of host computers required in each subnet, as well as other network considerations, like
future network host expansion.
After you have created a subnetting scheme and completed the table by filling in the missing host and
interface IP addresses, you will configure the host PCs, switches and router interfaces.
After the network devices and host PCs have been configured, you will use the ping command to test for
network connectivity.

Instructions
Part 1: Subnet the Assigned Network

Step 1: Create a subnetting scheme that meets the required number of subnets and required
number of host addresses.
In this scenario, you are a network technician assigned to install a new network for a customer. You must
create multiple subnets out of the 192.168.0.0/24 network address space to meet the following requirements:
a. The first subnet is the LAN-A network. You need a minimum of 50 host IP addresses.
b. The second subnet is the LAN-B network. You need a minimum of 40 host IP addresses.
c. You also need at least two additional unused subnets for future network expansion.
Note: Variable length subnet masks will not be used. All of the device subnet masks should be the same
length.
d. Answer the following questions to help create a subnetting scheme that meets the stated network
requirements:
Questions:
How many host addresses are needed in the largest required subnet? 50
Type your answers here.
What is the minimum number of subnets required? 4
The network that you are tasked to subnet is 192.168.0.0/24. What is the /24 subnet mask in binary?
Type /24 = 11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000 = 255.255.255.0answers here.
e. The subnet mask is made up of two portions, the network portion, and the host portion. This is
represented in the binary by the ones and the zeros in the subnet mask.
Questions:
In the network mask, what do the ones represent? the network portion
f. In the network mask, what do the zeros represent? the host portion
g. To subnet a network, bits from the host portion of the original network mask are changed into subnet bits.
The number of subnet bits defines the number of subnets.
Questions:
Given each of the possible subnet masks depicted in the following binary format, how many subnets and
how many hosts are created in each example?
Hint: Remember that the number of host bits (to the power of 2) defines the number of hosts per subnet
(minus 2), and the number of subnet bits (to the power of two) defines the number of subnets. The subnet
bits (shown in bold) are the bits that have been borrowed beyond the original network mask of /24. The
/24 is the prefix notation and corresponds to a dotted decimal mask of 255.255.255.0.
1) (/25) 11111111.11111111.11111111.10000000
Dotted decimal subnet mask equivalent: 255.255.255.128
Number of subnets? Number of hosts? 2 power1 which is 2 subnets, 2 power 7 –2 which is 126 hosts
2) (/26) 11111111.11111111.11111111.11000000
Number of subnets? Number of hosts? 2 power 2 which is 4 subnets, 2 power 6 –2 which is 62 hosts
3) (/27) 11111111.11111111.11111111.11100000
Type yor answers here.
Number of subnets? Number of hosts? 2 power 3 which is 8 subnets, 2 power 5 –2 which is 30 hosts
4) (/28) 11111111.11111111.11111111.11110000
Number of subnets? Number of hosts? 2 power 4 which is 16 subnets, 2 power 4 –2 which is 14
5) (/29) 11111111.11111111.11111111.11111000
Number of subnets? Number of hosts? 32 subnets, 6 hosts
6) (/30) 11111111.11111111.11111111.11111100
Number of subnets? Number of hosts? 64 subnets, 2 hosts
Considering your answers above, which subnet masks meet the required number of minimum host
addresses? /25, /26
Considering your answers above, which subnet masks meets the minimum number of subnets
required? /26
Considering your answers above, which subnet mask meets both the required minimum number of
hosts and the minimum number of subnets required? /26 = 11111111.11111111.11111111.11000000
= 255.255.255.192
When you have determined which subnet mask meets all of the stated network requirements, derive each
of the subnets. List the subnets from first to last in the table. Remember that the first subnet is
192.168.0.0 with the chosen subnet mask.
Subnet Address Prefix Subnet Mask

192.168.0.0 /26 255.255.255.192
192.168.0.64 /26 255.255.255.192
192.168.0.128 /26 255.255.255.192
192.168.0.192 /26 255.255.255.192
Step 2: Fill in the missing IP addresses in the Addressing Table

Assign IP addresses based on the following criteria: Use the ISP Network settings as an example.
a. Assign the first subnet to LAN-A.
1) Use the first host address for the CustomerRouter interface connected to LAN-A switch.
2) Use the second host address for the LAN-A switch. Make sure to assign a default gateway address
for the switch.
3) Use the last host address for PC-A. Make sure to assign a default gateway address for the PC.
b. Assign the second subnet to LAN-B.
1) Use the first host address for the CustomerRouter interface connected to LAN-B switch.
2) Use the second host address for the LAN-B switch. Make sure to assign a default gateway address
for the switch.
3) Use the last host address for PC-B. Make sure to assign a default gateway address for the PC.
Part 2: Configure the Devices

Configure basic settings on the PCs, switches, and router. Refer to the Addressing Table for device names
and address information.
Step 1: Configure CustomerRouter.

a. Set the enable secret password on CustomerRouter to Class123
b. Set the console login password to Cisco123.
c. Configure CustomerRouter as the hostname for the router.
d. Configure the G0/0 and G0/1 interfaces with IP addresses and subnet masks, and then enable them.
e. Save the running configuration to the startup configuration file.
Step 2: Configure the two customer LAN switches.

Configure the IP addresses on interface VLAN 1 on the two customer LAN switches. Make sure to configure
the correct default gateway on each switch.
Step 3: Configure the PC interfaces.

Configure the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway settings on PC-A and PC-B.
Part 3: Test and Troubleshoot the Network

In Part 3, you will use the ping command to test network connectivity.
a. Determine if PC-A can communicate with its default gateway. Do you get a reply? Yes

b. Determine if PC-B can communicate with its default gateway. Do you get a reply? Yes

c. Determine if PC-A can communicate with PC-B. Do you get a reply? Yes

If you answered “no” to any of the preceding questions, then you should go back and check your IP address
and subnet mask configurations, and ensure that the default gateways have been correctly configured on PC-
A and PC-B.
