IP Addressing for CyberSips Cafe



IP Addressing Scheme

1. Private IP Address Range

We will use a private IP address range for the internal network. The chosen range is 192.168.1.0/24, which provides 254 usable IP addresses (192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254).

2. Subnet Allocation



The network will be divided into subnets to organize and manage the different sections and devices:

  1. Router and Core Network Devices: 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.10

  2. Server: 192.168.1.11 to 192.168.1.20

  3. Computer Stations: 192.168.1.21 to 192.168.1.50

  4. Wireless Access Points: 192.168.1.51 to 192.168.1.60

  5. Reception/Check-in Counter: 192.168.1.61 to 192.168.1.65

  6. Reserved for Future Expansion: 192.168.1.66 to 192.168.1.254
