Imagine you are the network administrator of University X having ? campuses in Towson, Maryland. You want to build a connected network of servers (each server is either a regular or a routing one), one at each campus, and want to choose some of them to be the designated routing servers. A routing server will serve regular servers who connect directly to it via high speed cables, and every regular server must connect to at least one routing server. Your goal is to minimize the total length of high speed cable that you must purchase. Given the geographic locations of the ? campuses, design a plan that requires (1) the shortest length of cable and (2) the least number of routing servers. Analyze the time and space complexity of your procedure.

An enterprise wants to use a network infrastructure that complies with the class B IP addressing template given below. The network part of this is the internet service provider (ISP) appointed by. According to this: a) How many subnets can this business create within itself? b) The maximum number of hosts in each subnet (LAN) can you take? c) Let one of these subnets be given as follows: subnet 1 : 10000010.00110010.00000100.00000000 Does the computer with IP address 130.50.7.139 belong to this subnet? Show your work and reasoning for each option.
For example, suppose your kid uses the school's wireless LAN to access the web by typing in www.google.com. Keep going with this hypothetical situation. (Or, you know, any other website that occurs to you right now) For clarity's sake, list the available routing protocols in the order in which they should be used.
In ICT infrastructure, which of the following statements is true about the use of User Datagram Protocol (UDP) in Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP)? VoIP often uses UDP because it offers low latency and is better suited for real-time communication than TCP. VoIP can use both TCP and UDP interchangeably, depending on the type of communication and the devices involved. UDP is used in VoIP only when the network has low congestion, otherwise TCP is used to ensure data reliability. VoIP always uses TCP to ensure that voice data is transmitted reliably. UDP is not used in VoIP because it does not support real-time communication.
You are tasked with designing a network for a company that has offices in four locations: Kentucky, Ohio, Michigan, and Indiana. Each location will be represented by one router and an accompanying PC. The four routers will have point-to-point connections with one another. Design a subnetting plan for this network that meets the following requirements: ⚫ Use the Class C private network 192.168.1.0 for your point-to-point connections. These subnets will all have the same mask. When selecting one, consider the fact that these subnets only need two usable IP addresses; find the smallest mask that will support this. ⚫ Using the Class A private network 10.0.0.0, create a subnetting scheme that uses the least number of IP addresses possible for the following number of hosts in each location: 。 Kentucky: 500 o Ohio: 2000 o Michigan: 1000 o Indiana: 250 ⚫ When dividing the 10.0.0.0 block, please make sure you start from the location with the largest host count to the one with the…
One proposed solution that allowed mobile users to maintain their IP addresses as they movedamong foreign networks was to have a foreign network advertise a highly specific route to themobile user and use the existing routing infrastructure to propagate this information throughoutthe network. We identified scalability as one concern. Suppose that when a mobile user movesfrom one network to another, the new foreign network advertises a specific route to the mobileuser, and the old foreign network withdraws its route. Consider how routing informationpropagates in a distance-vector algorithm (particularly for the case of inter-domain routing amongnetworks that span the globe). a) Will other routers be able to route datagrams immediately to the new foreign network assoon as the foreign network begins advertising its route? Why? b) Is it possible for different routers to believe that different foreign networks contain themobile user? Why? c) Discuss the timescale over which other routers in…
Computer Science Given a scenario where there three routers R1, R2 and R3. R1 is connected to Switch1, then Switch1 is connected to R2 and then R2 is then connected to R3. Additionally, each router has a LAN of size 1100 each. A. How many sub-networks are required? B. How many host IP addresses do you require in total? i.e. The total number of hosts in all the subnets. C. Total of how many IP addresses would still be wasted if you used VLSM? Please answer all of these questions.
Imagine you are designing a network to connect three different companies in three different cities of A,B, and C. The company in “A” has 4 clients and the company in B has 8 clients, also the company in C has 6 clients. Two clients in “A” can connect to web server out of the company and three clients in B can connect to web server. In C all clients are supported by DHCP unless one of them which only this one is static IP configured and can connect to the web server. None of the other clients in any of the companies should not be able to connect the web server. Moreover, none of the clients in any of the companies should not have direct connection to the clients inside the other companies (As the discretionary mark if you increase the network quality in terms of the security and other features then thirty marks will be added). Based on the above explanation, you will design your own network, you can add some wireless devices to the network to make it more complicated. All the steps have…
Suppose you have the following network requirements, for Given an IP address and mask of 9.0.0.0/8, design an IP addressing scheme using VLSM? How is the efficiency of this method achieved?

Network 3 needs to support 2 host addresses. d. Network 4 needs to support 520 host addresses. e. Network 5 needs to support 230 host addresses. f. Network 6 needs to support 62 host addresses. g. Network 7 needs to support 2 host addresses. h. Network 8 needs to support 2 host addresses.
Let's imagine your youngster wants to use the internet and connects to the school's wireless local area network (LAN) by typing www.google.com. Let's keep on with this scenario. (Or, for that matter, any other website that comes to mind at the time) List the various routing protocols in the particular sequence in which they should be used to avoid any misunderstanding.
50- An organization currently requires 40 hosts for its sales department. Given the IP Address 194.12.1.0 /24, design an optimal address scheme usingTradition Subnetting method, which will enable the connection of the sales department’s 40 hosts in one subnet and uses the remaining subnets for other departments’ hosts in the future. What will be the network address of 3rd subnet? Select one: A. 194.12.1.191 B. 194.12.1.96 C. 194.12.1.128 D. 194.12.1.129
