BN321 – Advanced Network Design – Final Assessment - Trimester 3, 2021 Page 4 of 13 SECTION A: Research-based question and business case study (Total:50 Marks) Question 1: Case Study 1 – IP Addressing and Subnetting (3+2+5=10 Marks) Consider a firm with a /24 network. Suppose that the company wants to redesign the network with 10 subnets and 14 hosts per subnet as a part of the new organisational structure reshuffle. Answer the following questions based on this scenario. 1. What would be your design approach (subnets and hosts per subnet) in order to accommodate the changes? Justify your design approach. (3 Marks) 2. Recommend a suitable subnet-mask for the design consideration. (2 Marks) 3. Assuming an arbitrary IP address, show a range of IP addresses of a subnet. (5 Marks) Question 2: Case Study 2 – Based on Laboratory contents (Must be done in the Packet tracer) (5+5+5+5=20 Marks) Consider the network diagram in Figure 1 and answer the following questions. Further, the IP address are for illustrative purposes only. Use your own IP addressing scheme (You may use classful and classless IP addresses as per your preference). Note that students need to attach the screenshot(s) of their topology and configurations in their answer sheet. Figure 1.
