Static Routing VLSM

Given Network: 198.10.10.0

Required hosts on Router 1: 120

Required hosts on Router 2: 30

Static Routing | How To Configure Static Routing On Cisco

R1<= 120 hosts

120<= 2n – 2

120<= 27 – 2

120<= 128 – 2

120<= 126

Total number of network bits= 32

32 – n = 32 – 7 = 25 (CIDR value of Router 1 i.e. Given network)

i.e. 198.10.10.0/25

N.S.M = 11111111. 11111111. 11111111.10000000

                        = 255.255.255.128

Block Size        = 256 – N.S.M

                        = 256 – 128 = 128

Note: Add this block size in given network so that we can get our new network for Router 2.

so the new network is 198.10.10.128/?

Now find FVH, LVH and Broadcast address

Given Network19810100
First Valid Host-FVH19810101
Last Valid Host-LVH1981010126
Broadcast1981010127
New Network1981010128

R2<= 30 hosts

30<= 2n – 2

30<= 25 – 2

30<= 32 – 2

30<= 30

Total number of network bits = 32

32 – n = 32 -5 = 27 (CIDR value of new network i.e. Router 2)

i.e. 198.10.10.128/27

N.S.M = 11111111. 11111111. 11111111.11100000

                        = 255.255.255.224

Block Size        = 256 – N.S.M

                        = 256 – 224 = 32

Note: Add this block size in given network so that we can get our new network for Router 1 and 2 (Virtual Network).

so the new network is 198.10.10.160/?

Now find FVH, LVH and Broadcast address

Given Network1981010128
First Valid Host-FVH1981010129
Last Valid Host-LVH1981010158
Broadcast1981010159
New Network1981010160

Router 1 & 2 <= 2 hosts (we required only two IP to connect 2 routers)

2 <= 2n – 2

2 <= 22 – 2

2 <= 4 – 2

2 <= 2

Total number of network bits = 32

32 – n = 32 – 2 = 30 (CIDR of Virtual network (R1&R2)

i.e. 198.10.10.160/30

N.S.M = 11111111.11111111.11111111.11111100

= 255.255.255.252

Block Size        = 256 – N.S.M

= 256 – 252 = 4

Note: Add this block size in given network so that we can get our new network for Router 3. This network can be used in future.

so the new network is 198.10.10.164/?

Now find FVH, LVH and Broadcast address

Given Network1981010160
First Valid Host-FVH1981010161
Last Valid Host-LVH1981010162
Broadcast1981010163
New Network1981010164
