what is networking?

Question

The 165 Project Company is setting up a new headquarters in Downtown Springfield. As such, they need to set up a network of publicly available services on that network. Please read the rest of the instructions and answer carefully, the answer boxes will be doing string matches, to the best of your ability. You will get three submissions chances to get it right.

They have bought the public IP subnet of 192.165.1.192/26 to be used. You need to divide that subnet into three subnets. One for infrastructure that can support 14 nodes, one for public services that can support 30 nodes, and one for private services that can support 14 nodes. The lowest numeric value IPs should be used for the private services.

They will need you to configure a ISC DHCP server that will hand out the last half of each subnets IPs except the last usable IP (that will be used as the default-gateway. The DHCP server will also be the Name Server (DNS Server) (named net-srv.infra.165pro.net) for the three subnets as well. The IP of the DHCP and DNS server is the first usable IP of the infrastructure subnet. The default and max lease time should be set to one week. The domain names for the three subnets should be set to infra.165pro.net, prv.165pro.net, and pub.165pro.net.

Please provide in the text box below the three subnets from lowest value network address to highest in the following format:

Example:

X.X.X.X/XX

X.X.X.X/XX

X.X.X.X/XX

Answer:

Next provide usable configuration for the ISC DHCP to set the default and max lease times to one week in the following format:

Example:

default-lease-time X;

max-lease-time X;

Answer:

default-lease-time ;

max-lease-time ;

Answer 1

To divide the subnet 192.165.1.192/26 into three subnets as described, use the following:

1. Infrastructure Subnet: Supports 14 nodes

1. Network Address: 192.165.1.192/28
2. Usable IP Range: 192.165.1.193 to 192.165.1.206
3. Subnet Broadcast Address: 192.165.1.207

2. Public Services Subnet: Supports 30 nodes

1. Network Address: 192.165.1.208/27
2. Usable IP Range: 192.165.1.209 to 192.165.1.238
3. Subnet Broadcast Address: 192.165.1.239

3. Private Services Subnet: Supports 14 nodes

1. Network Address: 192.165.1.240/28
2. Usable IP Range: 192.165.1.241 to 192.165.1.254
3. Subnet Broadcast Address: 192.165.1.255

Next, configure the ISC DHCP server as follows:

1. DHCP Server IP and DNS Server IP (for all three subnets): 192.165.1.193
2. Default and Max Lease Time: One week (604800 seconds)
3. Domain Names:
4. Infrastructure Subnet: infra.165pro.net
5. Public Services Subnet: pub.165pro.net
6. Private Services Subnet: prv.165pro.net
