 INTERNSHIP PROJECT

• Title: Online IP Address Management

System

03/14/2022 11
 Introduction
IP address management system is a system that has a
useful function to Hawassa University. The user of this
system is HU ICT Directorate (branches found under
Hawassa University).

03/14/2022 12
 PROBLEM STATEMENT
• Current situation at Hawassa University staff of
networking need to calculate the IP Address manually.

• They need more time to calculate the IP Address.

• The possibilities to make error is higher and difficult to

detect if there any error.

• It is also difficult to remember the IP address that is

given for different areas in the campus.
03/14/2022 13
 OBJECTIVE
General objective
•To develop IP address management system.
Specific objectives
•To develop a prototype Online VLSM Calculator.
•To apply VLSM function based on user requirement.
•To implement web-based application and use IP Calculation
concept.
•To store calculated IP address on a database
•To Implement user management system.
03/14/2022 14
 SCOPE OF THE PROJECT
The scope of this project includes:

• This software will be used by student and staff of

networking Unit in HU-ICT Directorate

• Using VLSM IP addressing as main function of the

calculator.

• Online VLSM Calculator used to calculate the IP Address

that has been inserted by the network admin.
03/14/2022 15
 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE
PROJECT
By using this VLSM IP address calculator we can
reduce Waste of time that is wasted due to subnetting
manually

Reduce Error in assigning the IP for users

Solve the problem of IP address Wastage

To store sub-network information

03/14/2022 16
 REQUIREMENTS, ANALYSIS,
AND DESIGN
The waterfall model which has been decided for use in
this project is viewed as the most conventional way to
deal with programming development.

03/14/2022 17
 The Software Requirements
and Environments

OPERATING SYSTEM: Windows 10

ENVIRONMENT: Visual Studio Code (VS-code) Text

editor

BACKEND ENVIRONMENT: Node js

FRONTEND LANGUAGE: HTML, CSS, JavaScript

DATABASE: Mongo DB

03/14/2022 18
 Functional Requirement
Functional requirements describe the interactions between
the system and its environment.

The project will perform the following activities:

• Users are registered by the Network Administrator and will

get user name and password to access the system.

• Only the Network Admin can save VLSM result to the

database.

03/14/2022 19
…continued

• The users can only read the Network details of the subnet
and modify their profile.

• The system can accurately calculate variable length subnet

mask for all classes of IP Address.

• The network Admin can manage the networks with in the

database as well as can add and remove other users within
the system.
03/14/2022 20
…continued
The System can save the all details of the sub-network
which includes:
• Network Address
• Broadcast Address
• Subnet Mask
• Number of Allocated Addresses
• Number of Wasted Addresses
• First Host Address
• Last Host Address

 SYSTEM MODELING
USE CASE
• A use case describes a function provided by the system
that yields a visible result for an actor.
we have identified the current system’s actors as follows:
• Admins- are officers who administer the system, manage
user’s information, calculate VLSM, can update and delete
Sub-net information and can add users.
• Users- are students or staffs that can get subnet information
from the system can also calculate VLSM but cannot save into
the database.

 RESULT AND CONCLUSION
• Managed to successfully apply the Online IP Address
Management System and it is user friendly and easy
to use.

• Integrated the concepts of Networking with Data

Structure and algorithm.
