IP Addressing Scheme for UTeM Network


For this project, we use VLSM to do the IP subnetting.  We used 10.0.128.0/17 as network prefix.  The Computer Centre has 24 hosts, FTMK, FKE, FKEKK, FKM and FKP have 500 hosts, Post Graduate Centre and Library have 150 hosts while Chancellery Office, Registrar Office and Sport Centre have 50, 30 and 12 hosts respectively. 

For the Computer Centre, since it is the 10th largest network, we need to complete the previous 9 networks before starting the IP subnetting.  Since the Computer Centre contains 24 hosts, we used H=5 as the quantity of host.  The network address is 10.0.140.96.  The range of usable IP addresses is 10.0.140.97 to 10.0.140.126 and the broadcast address is 10.0.140.127. 


Computer Centre – 24 hosts 

2^H – 2 ≈ 24 

2^H = 2^5 

H=5, 2^5 – 2 = 32 – 2 >= 24 

Network Address = 10.0.140.96 

Range of Usable IP Address = 10.0.140.97 - 10.0.140.126 

Broadcast Address = 10.0.140.127 


For all 10 subnetworks, the IP subnetting will start from the largest to the smallest.
