EIGRP Configuration of 2 Routers – Class B – Advance LAB

In this lab I will show you EIGRP Configuration of 2 Routers

VLSM

Given Network: 180.80.0.0

Host Requirement on Router 1: 1000

Host Requirement on Router 2: 500

Router 1<= 1000

1000<= 2n – 2

1000<= 210 – 2

1000<= 1024 – 2

1000<= 1022

Total number of network bit = 32

32 – n = 32 – 10 = 22 (CIDR of Router 1 network i.e. Given network)

i.e. 180.80.0.0/22

N.S.M = 11111111.11111111.11111100.00000000

                        = 255.255.252.0

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 2.

so the new network is 180.80.4.0/?

Now find FVH, LVH and Broadcast address

Given Network1808000
First Valid Host-FVH1808001
Last Valid Host-LVH180803254
Broadcast180803255
New Network1808040

Router 2<= 500

500 <= 2n – 2

500 <= 29 – 2

500 <= 512 – 2

500 <= 510

Total number of network bits = 32

32 – n = 32 – 9 = 23 (CIDR of Router 2 network i.e. New network)

i.e. 180.80.4.0/23

N.S.M = 11111111.11111111.11111110.00000000

                        = 255.255.254.0

Block Size        = 256 – N.S.M

                        = 256 – 254 = 2

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 180.80.6.0?

Now find FVH, LVH and Broadcast address

Given Network1808040
First Valid Host-FVH1808041
Last Valid Host-LVH180805254
Broadcast180805255
New Network1808060

Router 1 and Router 2 <= 2 (we required only two IP to connect two 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. 180.80.6.0

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 180.80.6.4/?

Now find FVH, LVH and Broadcast address

Given Network1808060
First Valid Host-FVH1808061
Last Valid Host-LVH1808062
Broadcast1808063
New Network1808064
