Given Network: 210.80.50.0
Required hosts on Router 1= 50
Required hosts on Router 2= 25
Required hosts on Router 3= 14
Required hosts on Router 4= 5
R1<= 50
50<= 2n – 2
50<= 26 – 2
50<= 64 – 2
50<= 62
Total number of network bits = 32
32 – n = 32 – 6 = 26 (CIDR value of given network i.e. Router 1)
i.e. 210.80.50.0/26
N.S.M = 11111111. 11111111. 11111111.11000000
= 255.255.255.192
Block Size = 256 – N.S.M
= 256 – 192 = 64
Note: Add this block size in given network so that we can get our new network for Router 2.
So the new network is 210.80.50.64/?
Now find FVH, LVH and Broadcast address
