Objectives
Part 1: Examine the Network Requirements
Part 2: Design the VLSM Addressing Scheme
Part 3: Assign IP Addresses to Devices and Verify Connectivity
Background
In this activity, you are given a /24 network address to use to design a VLSM addressing scheme. Based on a
set of requirements, you will assign subnets and addressing, configure devices and verify connectivity.

Instructions Part 1: Examine the Network Requirements
Step 1: Determine the number of subnets needed.
You will subnet the network address . The network has the following requirements:
Packet Tracer - VLSM Design and Implementation Practice
a. Which subnet mask will accommodate the number of IP addresses required for ASW-1?
255.255.255.240/28
How many usable host addresses will this subnet support? 14 (10.11.48.97 - 10.11.48.110)
Type your answers here.
b. Which subnet mask will accommodate the number of IP addresses required for ASW-2 ?
255.255.255.224 /27
How many usable host addresses will this subnet support? 30 (10.11.48.65 - 10.11.48.94)
Type your answers here.
c. Which subnet mask will accommodate the number of IP addresses required for ASW-3 ?
255.255.255.248 /29
How many usable host addresses will this subnet support? 6 (10.11.48.113 - 10.11.48.118)
Type your answers here.
d. Which subnet mask will accommodate the number of IP addresses required for ASW-4 ?
255.255.255.192 /26
How many usable host addresses will this subnet support? 62 (10.11.48.1 - 10.11.48.62)
Type your answers here.
e. Which subnet mask will accommodate the number of IP addresses required for the connection between
Building1 and Building 2 ? 255.255.255.252/30
Type your answers here.

Step 2: Document the VLSM subnets.
Complete the Subnet Table, listing the subnet descriptions (e.g. [[S1Name]] LAN), number of hosts needed,
then network address for the subnet, the first usable host address, and the broadcast address. Repeat until all
addresses are listed.
