SUBNETTING
Subnetting is a technique used to divide a larger IP network into smaller,
more manageable sub-networks or subnets. Subnetting provides several
benefits, including efficient IP address allocation and improved network
organization.

CASE STUDY AND
Rustic University is a large university which has two campuses situated 20 miles apart. The university’s students and staff are distributed
REQUIREMENTS
in 4 faculties; these include the faculties of Health and Sciences; Business; Engineering/Computing and Art/Design. Each member of
staff has a PC and students have access to PCs in the labs. Create a network topology with the main components to support the
following:
• Location:
Main Campus University
•Building A: Administrative staff in the departments of management, HR and finance. The admin staff PCs are distributed in the
building offices and it is expected that they will share some networking equipment (Hint: use of VLANs is expected here). The
Faculty of Business is also situated in this building
•Building B: Faculty of Engineering and Computing and Faculty of Art and Design.
•Building C: Students’ labs and IT department. The IT department hosts the University Web server and other servers
Smaller Campus
•Faculty of Health and Sciences (staff and students’ labs are situated on separate floors)
•Each department/faculty is expected to be on its own separate IP network.
•The switches should be configured with appropriate VLANs and security settings.
•RIPv2 will be used to provide routing for the routers in the internal network and static routing for the external server.
•The devices in building A will be expected to acquire dynamic IP addresses from a router-based DHCP server.
Configure in Packet Tracer the network with appropriate settings to achieve the connectivity and functionalities specified in the
Virtual Server
requirements.
In addition, provide a demonstration of the process to create a DHCP server and establish a connection with a client on VMware as part of
the project.
DESIGNING THE
TOPOLOGY
Step 1: The initial step of setting the primary campus router.
Step 9: Extend the same networking setup to the branch network, replicating connections to ensure consistency and seamless
functionality across the network branches.
Step 10: Document specific VLAN information for distinct departments,
detailing assigned VLAN IDs, IP subnets, and network segmentation to maintain
organization and security.
Step 11: Document the inter-router networks, specifying IP addresses, subnet masks, and routing protocols to ensure effective
communication and routing between routers.
FINAL PROTOTYPE DESIGN THAT
FULFILLS ALL THE REQUIREMENTS :-
RECAP
Campus Infrastructure:
• Core Router: Configured with vital network parameters and acting as a gateway.
• Layer 3 Switch: Optimized for efficient inter-departmental communication.
• Layer 2 Switches: Strategically placed and interconnected for individual departments.
• End Devices: PCs, printers, and servers per department, connected using appropriate cables.
Interconnections:
• Serial Cable: Direct connection between core routers for redundancy and efficient data transfer.
• Cross Cables: Interconnecting L2 switches, cloud router, and email server for optimal data flow.
• Copper Straight Cables: Connecting L2 switches with end devices for seamless communication.
Network Documentation:
• VLAN Information: Documented VLAN details for each department, including VLAN IDs, IP subnets, and
network segmentation.

Step 7: Establish IP addresses on the routers, ensuring proper addressing and
routing functionality to enable effective network communication and traffic
management.
Step 8: Configure inter-VLAN routing to facilitate communication and data exchange between
different VLANs, enhancing network functionality and connectivity.

Step 9: Configure a DHCP server for the staff department on the
branch router, automating IP address assignments and simplifying
network management for the staff members.

Step 10:
Choose an end device connected to the switch of the staff and student departments, opting for DHCP to acquire an IP address, and confirm a successful request, validating
the router's DHCP configuration.
Initiate an IP address request from the DHCP server, confirming the seamless functionality and reliability of the DHCP setup within the network.

Turn off Firewall.
Step 4: Verify that the virtual Windows server's name and IP address align
with the information provided during the post-installation period.
Step 5: Select the desired role, in this case, the DHCP
Server.
Step 8: Opt for automatic restart if necessary and proceed with the installation.
Step 9: After initiation, a verification process will validate the preceding steps, ultimately leading to the
installation of the DHCP server's designated roles and features.
Step 10: Upon completion of the installation, all interfaces will close, and the system will undergo a restart.
Step 11: Configuration of the DHCP Server is the next task. Access the "Tools" menu
and select the "DHCP" option.
Step 12: In the absence of an existing scope, create a new scope by right-clicking on "IPv4" and choosing "New Scope."
Step 13: Provide a name for the newly created scope.
Step 14: Define the starting and ending IP addresses for the
scope.
Step 15: Optionally, specify exceptions – reserved IP addresses not assigned to clients.
Step 16: Set the lease time for IP addresses within the scope.
Step 17: Conclude the scope configuration by selecting the "Activate Scope" option.

TESTING
To retrieve the present IP
configuration of a client system,
one must employ the command
"ipconfig" within the command
prompt. Upon execution of this
command, the system shall
dutifully furnish the current IP
address in a display of information.
Within our server, it is possible to access information about the client system by inspecting the Address Lease records.
