ITECH1102 Network Security: Network Planning and IPv4 Addressing

This document presents a solution to an ITECH1102 Networking and Security Network Planning assignment. It involves allocating IPv4 addresses to different Australian states and configuring routing tables for edge routers (R1-R6). The solution details the IP address ranges, subnet masks, and number of addresses assigned to each state (NSW, VIC, QLD, WA, SA, TAS, NT). It also provides routing table entries for edge routers, specifying destination networks, interfaces, and next hops. Additionally, the assignment solution includes the IP addresses for the Network Interface Cards (NICs) connecting NT, WA, and SA to Router R1, and NSW, VIC, and TAS to Routers R2 and R3 respectively. The document also includes the necessary references.
