Creating the Subnets - MirandaE20-class/tech-journal GitHub Wiki
In this lab we needed to create 5 total subnets:
- Foster Subnet
- Joyce Subnet
- Skiff Subnet
- Foster to Skiff Subnet
- Joyce to Skiff Subnet
The maximum number of hosts needed was 30 so I figured out how many bits needed to be borrowed from the Host ID for the Network ID, which ended up being 192.168.1.0/27
- This was done by calculating the number of usable hosts with each CIDR
From there I divided the subnets between the Routers:
- Foster Subnet: 192.168.1.0
- Joyce Subnet: 192.168.32.0
- Skiff Subnet: 192.168.64.0
- Foster to Skiff Subnet: 192.168.96.0
- Joyce to Skiff Subnet: 192.168.128.0
The Routers for each subnet were given the first usable host address, the first PC was given the second usable address, and the second PC was given the last usable host address.
For the Subnets used to connect the Routers, Foster and Joyce were both given the first usable host IPs in their respective subnet with Siff receiving the second usable host IP.
