Hi guys, could do with some input here. Ive got a networks resit to do for uni, and ive spent the last week trying to get my head around VLSM and IP Addressing etc etc and could just do with some advisement as to whether this IP scheme would actually work as I dont have access to a the network room at uni to test it out.

I really need to get this bit right, as afer this I need to extend on the network, which is my reasoning for asking for advisement here before proceding.

Base IP given by lecturer is 160.32.84.0 /22

Below is my working out method, not sure if anyone will understand my workings, but here it is anyways just incase you do

Thanks you for any advice given, it really is hugely appreciated

That makes sense now you have said it, ive started at 84 and worked backwards instead of forwards, im an idiot :o

As for the /23 you are correct now ive checked my notes, it just me being stupid again.

Got closer than I did last time, my last attempt resulted in failing the module I cocked it up that much.

Thank you very much for your time mate
 
Right, if you dont mind mate will you check over this revised one.

To be honest its took me quite a while to get my head around VLSM etc, I thought I was good at networking, and oh how this module has proven me wrong.

EDIT - Ive spotted the IP typo on the second IP down

Subnetting isn't easy - it also depends on the method too. The guy at work whose doing his CCNA has quite a good method (which I can't remember!) but it seemed better than when I did mine.
As it stands, I'm rubbish at maths and subnetting -I cheated and used a calculator ;)


Ive sort of cheated, to get the subnets as i got linked to THIS page, which I have used a lot, as it shows you the split point between host and network parts which make it easier for calculation
 
Yep, the next part I need to do is the addition of more subnets equating to around about another 220 hosts, which is where the spare address comes in :) This is the reason I was asking for advisement on this part, as if I ballsed this part up it would muck up another part of my work.

I really cant thank you enough mate for your time, youve saved me an awful lot of time and headache
