CSI6201: Networking Technologies Worksheet Solution

This assignment solution addresses a networking technologies worksheet focusing on Layer 2 switch and VLAN configuration. The solution begins by pairing hosts and allocating VLAN IDs, followed by assigning IP addresses and subnet masks to each host. Part 1 covers these tasks, while Part 2 delves into subnetting, including determining the number of users, network IP addresses, and subnet masks for various subnets. Additionally, the solution identifies spare IP ranges within the network. The assignment utilizes IPv4 addressing and VLAN technology to design virtual networks for two LANs connected by a switch, including faculty staff, administration, HR, and guest networks. The solution is well-structured, providing clear steps and tables for VLAN design and IP allocation. The document concludes with a bibliography of relevant research papers on networking technologies.
