Assigning the 1st subnet to sales department:
172.16.000 0000 0.00000000 / 23
Step 2: From the available subnets that you created in Step 1, subnet further the 2 nd subnet as per the host requirement of
Marketing department.
/23 /24
172.16.000 0001 0. 00000000

Step 3: From the subnets that you created in Step 2, assign the 1 st subnet to Marketing department and subnet further the 2nd
subnet as per the requirement of Administration department and IT department.
Assigning the 1st /24 subnet to Marketing department:
172.16.000 0001 0. 00000000 /24
Subnetting further the 2nd /24 subnet as per the requirement of Administration department and IT department:
/24 /28
172.16.000 0001 1. 0000 0000 /28
0001
……..

Step 4: From the subnets that you created in Step 3, assign the 1 st subnet to Administration department and 2nd subnet to IT
Department.
Assigning the 1st /28 subnet to Administration department:
172.16.000 0001 1. 0000 0000 /28
Assigning the 2nd /28 subnet to IT department:
