Question 3 Case study task [7 Marks]

Advanced Digital Computer Company needs to subnet their allocated network address 192.168.128.0/20 for their corporate network,
given in the diagram below (Figure 1).

Figure 1: Network Diagram

 
Complete the table below according to the following requirements using the original network address 192.168.128.0/20:
1. Use VLSM addressing, ie the minimum number of bits to include all required hosts.
2. The gateways are the last usable host address(es) of each subnet.
3. The printer is the 5th usable host address of each subnet, except for the WANs.
