SCENARIO

The scenario of this project can be referred to Figure 1. Figure 1 shows the logical network flow from a home network to OUM facilities. In this figure, a OUM’s student is trying to access the OnlineLearning system located in the OUM network facilities. The student is using her modem to connect to the public network before able to connect to the OUM facilities. From the OUM network, the data then was forwarded to IT Center where the OnlineLearning System server is located.

Figure 1: Logical Network Flow

Students are required to suggest private addressing scheme used in OUM network. Explain how you calculate the subnetting using FLSM based on the number of the faculties. Each faculty is given their network address. Assign IT Center as another subnet with their own network address. From this network address, assigned as the 4^th available address as the address of the OnlineLearning System Server. 

This blog will cover three topics which are:

i.                     OSI Model

ii.                   Subnetting Calculation

iii.                 TCP/IP Configuration
