Task 3: Assign IP Addresses to the Network Devices
Assign the appropriate addresses to the device interfaces. Document the addresses to be used in the
Addressing Table provided under the Topology Diagram.
Step 1: Assign addresses to the HQ router.
1. Assign the first valid host address in the HQ LAN 1 subnet to the Fa0/0 LAN interface.
2. Assign the first valid host address in the HQ LAN 2 subnet to the Fao/1 LAN interface.
3. Assign the first valid host address in the link between HQ and Branch1 subnet to the S0/0/0
interface.
4. Assign the first valid host address in the link between HQ and Branch2 subnet to the S0/0/1
interface.
Step 2: Assign addresses to the Branch1 router.
1. Assign the first valid host address in the Branch1 LAN1 subnet to the Fa0/0 LAN interface.
2. Assign the first valid host address in the Branch1 LAN2 subnet to the Fa0/1 LAN interface.
3. Assign the last valid host address on the link between Branch1 and HQ subnet to the S0/0/0
interface
4. Assign the first valid host address on the link between Branch1 and Branch2 subnet to the S0/0/1
interface.
Step 3: Assign addresses to the Branch2 router.
1. Assign the first valid host address in the Branch2 LAN1 subnet to the Fa0/0 LAN interface.
2. Assign the first valid host address in the Branch 2 LAN 2 subnet to the Fa0/1 LAN interface.
3. Assign the last valid host address on the link between HQ and Branch2 subnet to the S0/0/1
interface
4. Assign the last valid host address on the link between Branch1 and Branch2 subnet to the S0/0/0
interface.
