To develop an addressing scheme for a network, start with determining the ____________________________________  The end devices requiring an IP address include (consider the future ): Other end devices such as __________, IP phones, and IP cameras  Network devices requiring an IP address include (consider the future ):  Network devices requiring an IP address for management include (consider the future ): Next, determine if all hosts will be part of the same network, or whether the network as a whole will be divided into separate subnets.  Review: How is the number of hosts on one network or subnet calculated? We need to come up with the total number of host- present and future One per populated interface One per device

23. How Many Networks? Reasons to divide a network into subnets:  ____________________ - Create smaller broadcast domains  _________________________________ - Consolidate users with specific network requirements to one subnet.  _________________ - Different levels of network security can be implemented based on network addresses.

24. Designing the Address Standard for our Internetwork It is good practice to use ____________________ ____________________ across all subnets  For example, when assigning an IP address to a router interface that is the gateway for a LAN, it is common practice to use either the first (lowest) or last (highest) address within the subnet range. Similarly, using a consistent pattern within subnets makes __________________________________  For example addresses within the.64 -.127 range always represent the general users.

26. Calculating Addresses The curriculum goes step-by-step through an example in section 10.4.1- 10.4.3 They discuss the number of LAN’s needed and hosts per LAN and WAN They then go through allocating addresses using VLSM and a non-VLSM method Please step through that example very carefully and come in with any questions.  VLSM should be review for you… Following we will go through example Case #2
