Program Plan Intro

Internet Protocol (IP) address:

  • IP address is a number assigned to each computer in a network.
  • Computer network uses Internet Protocol for communication.
  • IP is a protocol used in the network layer of the internet model.
  • It is used to route the packet through an optimal path in a network.
  • IP performs addressing to find the next computer in an optimal path.
  • Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) defines an IP address as 32 bits number.
  • Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) defines an IP address as 128 bits number, which consists of 4 octets containing hexadecimal values.

Subnet:

  • Subnet divides the network into logical pieces. This process is known as subnetting.
  • Systems or computers can communicate directly with each other if they belong to the same subnet or subnetwork.
  • The computers that are outside of a subnet can communicate with other computers only through routers.

Explanation of Solution

Process control:

  • Assume that the Central University had a server to support each of subnets.
  • Assume that the server uses Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to assign...
