Lab 10.3.2: How Many Networks?
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this lab, you will be able to:
Determine the number of subnets.
Design an appropriate addressing scheme.
Assign addresses and subnet mask pairs to device interfaces.
Examine the use of the available network address space.
Scenario
In this lab, you have been given the network address 192.168.26.0/24 to subnet and provide the
IP addressing for the networks shown in the Topology Diagrams. You must determine the number
of networks needed then design an appropriate addressing scheme. Place the correct address
and mask in the Addressing Table. In this example, the number of hosts is not important. You are
only required to determine the number of subnets per topology example.
Topology Diagram A


Task 1: Determine the Number of Subnets in the Topology Diagram.

Step 1: How many networks are there? ____
Step 2: How many bits should you borrow to create the required number of subnets? ____
Step 3: How many usable host addresses and usable subnets did this give you? ____
Step 4: What is the new subnet mask in decimal form? _____________________________
Step 5: How many subnets are available for future use? ____
