CIT 249 – Week 2 – Individual: Training Guide Part 1 – Adding New VLSM Subnets

 

n Weeks Two, Four, and Five you will compile a Training Guide for the new interns on your network team.

Resources:

• Ch. 22, “Variable-Length Subnet Masks”
• Figure 22-4, “VLSM Design with Possible Overlap”
• Table 22-3, “Subnet IDs and Broadcast Addresses, in Numerical Order, from Figure 22-4 “
• Figure 22-5, “Internetwork to Which You Need to Add a /23 Subnet, Network 172.16.0.0”
• Table 22-5, “First Five Possible /23 Subnets”
• Table 22-6, “Existing Subnet IDs and Broadcast Addresses from Figure 22-5”
• Your Learning Team collaboration from this week

Recently, two new interns have joined your network team. They are having a hard time testing to see if there is overlap in a VLSM scheme on your network and troubleshooting problems that arise. They are also unsure how to add a new subnet to an existing network. You are tasked with helping them, so you decided to create a Training Guide for them using a PowerPoint®presentation that shows the step-by-step processes for adding a new subnet as described in Ch. 22.

Create a Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation containing 14 to 16 slides, including Introduction, Conclusion, and Reference slides. Includedetailedspeaker notes with each slide. The presentation should include:

• A concise overall description of an IPv4 based WAN
• An accurate depiction of how to calculate a subnet ID and subnet broadcast address
• A clear explanation of how to test for overlap in a VLSM scheme and troubleshoot issues that may arise from the overlap
• A complete step-by-step illustration of how to add a new subnet
