Packet Tracer Lab 1.3.2-Chapter 1

[LDonaldson12]

Hello, My name is La Marr

     I am having trouble configuring an ip address on a 1841 cisco router in fa0/1.  All my devices are talking to one another, but I cannot ping the entire network because I cannot assign the ip address to fa0/1 on the router without getting an overlapping ip address error.  I've attached the the file of the packet tracer.  I am wondering if someone can take a look at this for me and help me to complete this lab.  Thanks, La Marr

Hi La Marr,

You can't have the same subnet on different interfaces of a router and that's why you had the overlapping subnet warning.

You have 192.168.30.0/27 so mask 255.255.255.224 so 30 hosts and you are asked for a subnet with 14 hosts and one with 7 so you must subnet subnet A:

192.168.30.0/28 ( subnet zero which is permitted) ---> 192.168.30.1 for host and 192.168.30.14 for f0/0

Subnet B:

192.168.30.16/28 ---> 192.168.30.17 for host and 192.168.30.30 for f0/1

Regards.

Alain.
