Scenario
In this lab, you will create a small network that requires connecting network devices and configuring host
computers for basic network connectivity. SubnetA and SubnetB are subnets that are currently needed.
SubnetC, SubnetD, SubnetE, and SubnetF are anticipated subnets, not yet connected to the network.
Note: Always start with the subnet with the largest number of hosts and work your way down.
Therefore, you should start with SubnetB and finish with SubnetA.
