2: Subnetting Scenario 1

Heres two parts to follow inA. Subnet Masking B. Network Design

Learning Objectives:
Upon completion of this lab, you will be able to: 1. Determine the number of subnets needed. 2. Determine the number of hosts needed. 3. Design an appropriate addressing scheme.

Part-B
Part B is all about designing the network and configuring the network devices. There are certain general steps to follow in order to design and configure the network.

Step-1:
In Cisco Packet Tracer there is options for which device you want to add, remove, or do operations. In the left down corner side of the user interface, there is a collection of devices. From the collection you may add your required devices.

Step-2
After choosing the devices, connect them with wires from the same collection panel. Note that, for -Router to Router Connection, only serial DCE is used (select serial port when connecting for both side) -Router to Switch Connection, Copper Straight wire can be used (select Fast Ethernet when connecting for both side) -Switch to End User/PC Connection, Copper Straight wire can be used (select Fast Ethernet when connecting for both side)

Step-3
Click on the router in the middle (instructed as HQ), and select CLI to configure. An editable text box will appear and in order to configure the router you need to write commands here. It can be like this for the HQ router: Continue with configuration dialog? [yes/no]: no

Press RETURN to get started!

Made Easy: in the above command lines only interface names and IP Addresses are changed by the design. But in all cases, the procedure is all the way same. In cases of increased number of routers, repeat the procedure until all the routers are configured.

Step-4
Configuring the End User devices/PCs: Click on the device, a box will appear and follow the below steps: Click Desktop>IP Configuration>3 different text area will appear. All you have to do is fill the boxes with dedicated IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway.

A sample screening is provided below:

IP address is the dedicated address for that device, Subnet mask is the same from the beginning and the default gateway is the configured IP address from the router maintaining the particular network. Like here is one done for the PC-2 for your convenience:

Repeat the procedure for all the PCs according to their respective dedicated IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway.
