Objectives

This assessment relates to the unit learning outcomes as in the unit descriptors. It checks your

understanding about configuring and troubleshooting medium-size networks.

In this assignment you will demonstrate your knowledge and skills in subnetting an IP address space,

configuring RIPv2 and OSPF routing protocols as well as NAT.

Remember that all your screenshots should include your student ID as the hostname of router (e.g.

Melbourne3-S1234).

The following video tutorials can help you refresh your knowledge on IP subnetting, static routing and

dynamic routing:

PART-1 (20 marks)

IP Addressing

Subnet the following IP network: 160.1XY.0.0/16 (XY is the last two digits of your Student ID) to

accommodate 5 subnets, each subnet will subsequently have 300, 180, 65, 30 and 4 PCs. For each subnet

find the subnet mask, network ID, broadcast IP and valid host range and complete the below table:

Note: You need to add the handwritten solution of this question to your report. (5*4 = 20 marks)

Subnet Mask Network ID Broadcast IP Valid Range

Subnet 1

Subnet 2

Subnet 3

Subnet 4

Subnet 5

PART-3 (50 marks)

You are hired by VIT to implement the network given in the diagram below:

The company has been allocated the following IPv4 address block to use: 10.XY.0.0/22 (XY is the last two

digits of your student ID).

To perform the task, you have to prepare the following documents:

a. IPv4 addressing plan (10 marks)

b. What would be the command to add a default static route for your entire network design from

the HQ router to the ISP router? (5 marks)

c. What would be the command to add a default static route on the West router to send traffic for

all unknown destinations to the HQ router? (5 marks)

d. The Branch 4 router requires a static route for traffic destined for Branch 3. All other traffic should be sent to the East router using a default static route. What commands would be used to accomplish this?

(5 marks)

e. Configure OSPF in the given topology and provide the screenshots of the OSPF configuration,

routing table of each router and the result of connectivity between following PCs: PC1 and PC2

PC3 and PC4

PC5 and PC7 (15 marks)

f. Configure NAT on router HQ to translate the local network addresses to a public IP address used

in HQ-ISP network (10 marks)
