vslm addressing

ualiyu

I please need help to use vslm to assign addresses to five sites with 600, 300, 100, 30 and 20 hosts. The IP addresss to be used is 172.16.0.0/24

172.16.0.0/24 only has 256 addresses. There is no way to assign 300 or even 600 addresses out of it.

CodeBlox

It actually only has 254 usable after you account for subnet ID and broadcast address.

CodeBlox

Assuming you meant the address space 172.16.0.0 /16

You could use this scheme to meet your requirment:

172.16.0.0 /22 (supports up to 1022 hosts)
172.16.4.0 /23 (supports up to 510 hosts)
172.16.6.0 /25 (supports up to 126 hosts)
172.16.6.128 /27 (supports up to 30 hosts)
172.16.6.160 /27 (supports up to 30 hosts)

The summary for all these subnets could be 172.16.0.0 /21

Your going to have to use NATing for that.

CodeBlox

Why would he need to NAT?

nerdydad

Because he does not have enough IP addresses for the amount of hosts.
