checked for plagiarism against other assignments.
Purpose To demonstrate student’s understandings in how to design and configure a
network system via the Packet Tracer simulation
As part of restructuring at the Cyber University, a new Faculty of Innovation has been
established. The faculty encompasses Computer Science (CS) and Engineering
disciplines (ENG). You have been tasked to design the network for the new faculty. The
Default_Gateway and Router01 are part of the existing network, and the faculty has
been assigned 130.120.10.0/23 address space
Part 1
Divide the assigned address space between faculty admin (FA), CS, and ENG subnets
such that the ENG subnet gets 254 IP addresses, Faculty Admin and CS subnets get 126
IP addresses each.
Part 2
Construct the following network topology in Packet Tracer. Ensure that all the
hostnames and network addresses are well labeled.
Part 3
a. Define appropriate IP addresses for networks, routers’ interfaces, default gateways, and host
ranges on each subnets (fill-in the table below).
Subnets Net ID Subnet Mask CIDR Start IP End IP Broadcast
ENG ………… ?……… ? ……..?…….. ……..?…….. ……..?……..
FA ………… ?……… ? ……..?…….. ……..?…….. ……..?……..
CS ………… ?……… ? ……..?…….. ……..?…….. ……..?……..
Connection between
Default_Gateway
and Router1
130.120.8.0 …………?………
/30 ……..?…….. ……..?…….. ……..?……..
Connection between
Router1 and Router2
130.120.9.0 …………?……… /30 ……..?…….. ……..?…….. ……..?……..
b. Configure DHCP services on Router02 such that the VPCs (FA1, CS1, and EN1) can get IP
addresses dynamically assigned (IP addresses must be assigned based on the IP ranges as
Part 3.a.) – Please include the commands you use for DHCP configuration on router into
your report.
c. Configure the routers and create appropriate routing tables on each routers. You should be able
to ping the Default_Gateway from Router02 and vice versa.
Part 4
Setup the PCs (FA1, CS1, EN1) in each of the three subnets as shown above. Then execute
tools such as ping, and trace route (tracert command).
Execute trace route (tracert 130.120.8.1) command on FA1 and CS1. Paste the results to your
report (maybe as a screenshot).
Part 5
Use the following checklist to ensure you network is configured correctly.
Test ✔
Router2 can ping Router1
Router2 can ping Default_Gateway
Router01 ping FA1
Router01 can ping CS1
Router01 can ping EN1
CS1 can ping FA1
CS1 can ping EN1
CS1 can ping Router01
CS1 can ping Default_Gateway
EN1 can ping FA1
EN1 can ping CS1
EN1 can ping Router01
EN1 can ping Default_Gateway
FA1 can ping CS1
FA1 can ping EN1
FA1 ping Router01
FA1 can ping Default_Gateway
Zip the Packet tracer solution (.pkt) together with a report and submit it on Stream. Make sure
your submission is complete and has all the necessary files to run the simulation.
