When I took it there seemed to be no concern with regard to optimizing the
number of addresses or method of address use. In the end it just has to
work. The lab is focused to show them you how to accomplish set goals and
to essentially make it all work together. It was more focused on the amount
of work that has to get completed and building the desired network. You
don't have time to worry about optimizing ip netblocks in the design and it
wasn't what they were looking for.

Hope this helps.

Subject: VLSM Question

In the lab, when they give you the address range to use on your network, do
they
want you to waste as few addresses as possible? For eample. Lets say I have
3 networks and they gave me an address of 150.100.X.X to use. They also
specify that each network is to have 30 hosts. I would just assign a
different "class c" range to each network with a mask of 255.255.255.244.
Is this an acceptable solution?

150.100.1.0 /27
150.100.2.0 /27
150.100.3.0 /27

Or do they want you to use for example the following:

150.100.1.0 /27
150.100.1.32 /27
150.100.1.64 /27

What exactly do they look for?

Thanks,

Ben
