Scenario

Design a network in CISCO packet tracer to connect ACCOUNTS and DELIVERY departments through the following:

  1. Each department should contain at least 2 PCs.
  2. Appropriate number of switches and routers should be used in the network.
  3. Using the given network address 192.168.40.0, all interfaces should be configured with appropriate IP addresses, subnet mask and gateways.
  4. All devices in the network should be connected using appropriate cables.
  5. Test the connectivity between ACCOUNT and DELIVERY department -PCs in DELIVERY department should be able to ping PCs in ACCOUNTS department.

Subnetting

  • Network: 192.168.40.0
  • Number of departments: 2 (so we need 2 subnets)
  • Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.128 or /25
  • Block size: 128
