Objectives

This assessment item 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:

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.

Subnet Mask

Network ID

Broadcast IP

Valid Range

Subnet 1

Subnet 2

Subnet 3

Subnet 4

Subnet 5

Based on the given topology, complete the following tasks in packet tracer and provide the screenshots of your configuration in your report.

  1. Design IP plan for the network
  2. Configure IP address for the PC and server
  3. Configure static routing for the network
  4. Configure RIPv2 for the network
  5. Show the routing table of each router
  6. Show the network connectivity pinging from PC0 to Server0
  7. Using an IP access list, block the traffic going from PC0 to Server0 and provide the screenshots of failed pings from PC0 to Server0.

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:

  1. What would be the command to add a default static route for your entire network design from the HQ router to the ISP router?
  2. 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?
  3. 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?
  4. 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
  5. Configure NAT on router HQ to translate the local network addresses to a public IP address used in HQ-ISP network.
