Yes it is.

Am i not allowed to ask? Sorry if not.

I do understand the assignment and i understand how VLSM's work, this is the only part im stuck on the actual figuring out how many subnets I need.

Ok,

This is my network address 192.168.9.0

So ive decided to go for a 255.255.255.224 subnet mask (/27) which will give me 6 usable subnets with 30 hosts on each.

SN1 - Servers - 192.168.9.33 - 37
SN2 - Remote sales 192.168.9.65 - 69
SN3 - Admin 192.168.9.97 - 103
SN4 - Sales 192.168.9.129 - 137
SN5 - R+D 192.168.9.161 - 180

Can anyone see a problem with this in relation to the topology?

Am i correct in giving each group a subnet?

Edit: btw beansprout, this is part 2/5 of the assignment, so there is lots i have allready done.

Thanks in advance

Because the student will never learn if just given the answer. It is called ethics. He gets a grade A for work that he hasn't done.

The UK government are trying to crack down on this in a big way.

Hey i agree with you on this.

I am not trying to get people to do the assignment, i am just asking for some guidance and assistance with working out how many subnets i need. That’s all.

Its such a small part that i am stuck with...

tonyyeb - please see post #7

This is what i have on paper, does it look ok?

I would use VSLM and as there isnt a linear distribution of hosts in each subnet assigning all subnets a /27 mask would waste a lot of address space.

Using a network of 192.168.1.0

/27 for the largest segment - 30 Hosts per subnet, 4 Subnets
/29 for the smaller segments - 6 Hosts per subnet, 32 Subnets

Im thinking along the lines of Cisco whether this is what your studying im not sure. Also i dont know the brief there may be a need for future expansion as such masks allowing a larger number of hosts would be needed.

Thanks for the advice, think im going to go down this route <-- no pun intended.

I was wasting loads of address using the /27. I am going to use a /29 for the servers as I only need 5 address. The other groups will be changed also.

A bit of help is fine....

Where is it then?

Yep i have to allow for 100% growth over the 3 floors.

I am told the company have a lifetime max of 5 servers.
