Learning Objectives:
Determine summarized routes that can be used to reduce the size of routing tables.
Scenario
In this activity, you have been given the network shown in the Topology Diagram. The
subnetting and address assignments have already been completed for the network segments.
Determine summarized routes that can be used to reduce the number of entries in routing
tables.
Task 1: Determine the Summary Route for the HQ LANs.
Step 1: List the HQ LAN1 and LAN2 in binary format.
LAN1______________________________________________
LAN2______________________________________________
Step 2: Count the number of left-most matching bits to determine the mask for the
summary route.
1. How many left-most matching bits are present in the two networks? _______
2. What is the subnet mask for the summary route in decimal format?
______________________________________________
Step 3: Copy the matching bits and then add all zeros to determine the summarized
network address.
