ASSIGNMENT-2
DATA COMMUNICATIONS AND NETWORKS
Objective: By completing this assignment, students will be demonstrating their knowledge and
skills leant from week 1-6 that include:
o IP address planning

Suggestion This assignment is developmental and cumulative. You are strongly
advised to start doing this assignment from Week-3 in your study.
Leaving your starting date to the week before the due date is a very
poor strategy for success in the unit.
1 Problem Context
A private multimedia development company is opening its 3 new
anches at the Gold Coast region,
Australia. Head Quarter network has XYZ network devices including all computers, (X+2) printers, 3
servers, 1 router, (Z+3) switches and other network devices. Branches subsequently has (X+5)×(Y+5),
XZ and ZY network devices including (Y+2) servers, 1 router, 2 switches in each
anch.
where XYZ are the last 3 digits of your student ID. If any of these three digits is Zero (0), replace
them with the next non-zero number in your ID to estimate the size of each
anch network.
Recently, the company has been assigned with a new space of IP addressing and the whole network
has to be re-addressed.
2 The Task
You are contracted by the company to help with the IP address planning. The following is the new IP
address space:
IPv4 network: 1XZ.YZ.XY.0/18 (See above for explanation of XYZ).
IPv6 network: 2011:BD8:ɵ::/48
where Θ is the last four digits of your student ID expressed in hexa-decimal.
Your task in this assignment is to plan and document
An IPv4 address plan for the LAN. Please note classful subnetting is legacy, i.e., old way of
doing things so for the assessment you do not need to care about that.
An IPv6 address plan for the LAN

Network Diagram: There are two ways of presenting a network, the logical view and the
physical view. Please read the CCNA chapter 3 in more resources folder which describes
these two viewpoints. You will need make a logical diagram for the network including all 3
anch offices. This is your network diagram mentioned in the ru
ic below.
You are expected to provide an optimum address allocation solution with the following details:
1. IP address requirement for each sub-network.
2. IP address allocation plan for each network/sub-network including network address, subnet
mask,
oadcast address, default gateway address and valid host address range.
3. IP address allocation plan for key network device and interfaces e.g., servers, printers,
outer interfaces, etc.
