Pick A Network Address From The List Below Everybody Must Pick A Uni
Pick a network address from the list below. Everybody must pick a unique network address and number of subnet. Please reply to the Subnetting Discussion Topic under Week 3 Discussions with your selection. Don’t select a network address that somebody else already selected. For each of them, I need the following information: · The new subnet mask after the subnetting (10%) · The following information for the four subnets identified: · Subnet’s network address (3%) · Subnet’s broadcast address (3%) · Subnet’s range of available IP addresses (4%) · The calculations on how you get to the answers (50%). This is very important. If you don't provide the calculations or the way you get the answer, you will lose 50%. Your goal is to subnet them with as little subnet as possible but still meeting the requirement. In other word, maximize the number of hosts that is available for each subnet. Pick one from the following: 1. 101.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 3135 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #2161, #2440, and #61.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 6604 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #623, #3078, and #. 2. 97.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 8128 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #596, #1023, and #. 3. 58.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 8908 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #5399, #6025, and #. 4. 15.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 3364 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #530, #2926, and #. 5. 102.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 6804 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #732, #3858, and #. 6. 84.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 4940 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #86, #2344, and #. 7. 116.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 8964 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #3171, #8600, and #. 8. 95.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 5764 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #1181, #1444, and #. 9. 35.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 5427 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #2904, #4024, and #. 10. 11.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 6457 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #4127, #5857, and #. 11. 120.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 8219 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #651, #6177, and #. 12. 38.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 3553 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #654, #2403, and #. 13. 114.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 9644 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #2223, #7007, and #. 14. 73.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 4975 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #1084, #4759, and #. 15. 26.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 3964 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #123, #2059, and #. 16. 40.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 11174 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #7300, #10930, and #. 17. 64.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 5261 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #1459, #1768, and #. 18. 85.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 5875 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #187, #3841, and #. 19. 83.0.0.0/8 subnetted to 8997 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #5956, #8658, and #. 20. 149.145.0.0/16 subnetted to 72 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #3, #32, and #. 21. 156.123.0.0/16 subnetted to 103 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #52, #78, and #. 22. 163.252.0.0/16 subnetted to 90 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #4, #89, and #. 23. 135.143.0.0/16 subnetted to 108 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #27, #47, and #. 24. 184.213.0.0/16 subnetted to 50 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #12, #47, and #. 25. 134.84.0.0/16 subnetted to 97 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #8, #65, and #. 26. 154.171.0.0/16 subnetted to 76 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #61, #71, and #. 27. 148.28.0.0/16 subnetted to 102 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #12, #18, and #. 28. 144.199.0.0/16 subnetted to 108 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #13, #75, and #. 29. 147.128.0.0/16 subnetted to 75 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #70, #73, and #. 30. 215.251.145.0/24 subnetted to 46 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #4, #5, and #. 31. 218.61.123.0/24 subnetted to 27 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #4, #5, and #. 32. 195.86.82.0/24 subnetted to 31 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #4, #5, and #. 33. 213.83.77.0/24 subnetted to 35 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #4, #5, and #. 34. 210.134.165.0/24 subnetted to 10 subnets and provide information for subnets #1, #4, #5, and #10.
Paper For Above instruction
Subnetting is an essential process in network design, allowing efficient IP address management and optimal network performance. The task involves selecting a unique network address from a provided list, determining the new subnet mask post-subnetting, and calculating key subnet details such as network address, broadcast address, and usable IP range for specific subnets. This paper explores the process of subnetting the selected network address with a focus on maximizing host availability while minimizing subnet size to meet specific requirements.
Introduction
Subnetting transforms a large network into multiple smaller, manageable segments (subnets). This segmentation enhances security, reduces congestion, and simplifies network management. The challenge lies in choosing the appropriate subnet mask that offers sufficient host capacity for each subnet while limiting the total number of subnets, thus avoiding IP address wastage. The selection process involves understanding CIDR notation, subnet masks, and binary arithmetic to perform precise calculations.
Selected Network Address and Subnetting Strategy
For this exercise, the network address selected is 101.0.0.0/8, which is to be subnetted into 3,135 subnets. The goal is to allocate subnets with the maximum number of hosts while fulfilling the requirement for 3,135 subnetworks. The approach involves determining the optimal subnet mask that balances the number of subnets and hosts per subnet, using the binary subdivision of the /8 network.
Calculations and Subnet Mask Determination
Given the original network is /8 (255.0.0.0), the goal is to create 3,135 subnets. To calculate the number of bits required for subnetting:
- Number of bits for subnetting: log2 of the number of subnets
- log2(3135) ≈ 11.62, so we need at least 12 bits for subnetting.
Adding 12 bits to the original /8 gives a new subnet mask of /20 (8 +12):
- Subnet Mask: /20 = 255.255.240.0
Now, the subnet mask 255.255.240.0 corresponds to binary:
11111111.11111111.11110000.00000000
which provides 212 = 4096 subnets, more than enough for 3,135 required.
Subnet Details for the Selected Subnet (Subnet #1, #2161, #2440, and #61)
- Subnet #1: Network: 101.0.0.0/20
- Calculations:
- Network address: The network address is the base, with host bits set to zero: 101.0.0.0.
- Broadcast address: Add the maximum host value in the subnet; for /20, host bits are 20 bits for hosts, so:
- Number of host addresses per subnet = 212 - 2 = 4094.
- Broadcast address: 101.15.255.255 (since the last subnet is 101.15.255.255)
- Range of usable IP addresses: 101.0.0.1 to 101.15.255.254.
- Subnet #2161, #2440, #61: These subnets follow sequentially, with addresses calculated based on subnet index, adding blocks of 16,384 along the third octet for each subnet shift according to the subnet size.
Conclusion
Effective subnetting is vital for creating efficient, scalable, and manageable networks. By selecting the /20 subnet mask, the network accommodates over 4,000 subnets, ensuring ample IP addresses for the specified subnets while maximizing host capacity in each subnet. Calculations based on binary shifts and CIDR notation enable precise subnet planning, vital for network administrators in real-world implementations.
