Network Planning Assignment
Overview
The main objectives of this assignment are:• To help students gain a good understanding of the IP -Internet Protocol-, which is the major underlying technology of the Internet-• To help students to understand the importance of subnet and routing of IP address-• To encourage students to conduct an independent investigation into IP related topics from books, the Internet and through practical investigation-
Engagement with this assignment should help students to understand the primary underlying concepts of the Internet world-
ScenarioYou have been appointed as a Network System Administrator by the Australian government to allocate public IP Version 4 -IPv4- addresses and build a routing table for edge routers to connect the Australian states as shown in Figure 1-
The IPv4 is an exhaustive list of IPv4 addresses for current Internet users in the world- However, in this scenario, you have the liberty to use the entire available unreserved public IPv4 addresses for the Internet users in Australia-
PartsThe major task is to allocate the unreserved public IPv4 addresses to different states in Australia based on the number of Internet users in those states- The number of Internet users for each state is given below:
New South Wales -NSW- : 6 MillionVictoria -VIC- : 4 MillionQueensland -QLD- : 3 MillionWestern Australia -WA- : 2 MillionSouth Australia -SA- : 1 MillionTasmania -TAS- : 300 ThousandNorthern Territory -NT- : 150 Thousand
The task needs to be completed based on the following constraints and assumptions:
• Only unreserved public IPv4 addresses should be used for allocation-• Each state should have a unique set of addresses - no address or set of addresses can be reassigned to any other state-• You should use only the classless IPv4 addressing in the assignment-• The number of allocated addresses for each state should not exceed by 20% of the specified Internet users for that particular state- For instance, the assigned addresses for Tasmania should not exceed 360 Thousand addresses-• It is allowed to use one or more subnets to achieve the number of required address for a given state-
The minor task is to create a routing table for edge routers only for the state NT, WA and SA- The task needs to be completed based on the following constraints and assumptions:
• The routing table should be minimal with no redundant routes in the table-
• Any packets from the source -NT or WA or SA- should take the minimal route to reach the destination -NT or WA or SA--
• Identify the Network Interface Card address to connect NT, WA and SA-
