German-Malaysian Institute (GMI) plans to restructure the assignment of IP address for all
labs and rooms in each department. GMI has 3 separate departments which are Industrial
Electronic (IE), Production Technology (PT) and Research Development Centre (RDC).

In IE, there are 5 computers labs that can be occupied with 60 computers in each lab. There
are 3 other labs that are used by all research students that contain 40 computers in each room.
Furthermore, there are 30 TTO rooms with each room needs to be assigned with one IP
address. All these IPs will be grouped into one subnet.

In RDC, 2 research labs contain 10 PC in each lab needs to assign an IP address. It also has 5
PC for administration staffs. Both labs and administration office need to be assigned in
one subnet.

In PT, there are 3 computer labs need to be connected to the network as well. Each lab will
contain 20 computers. Use one subnet for all these three labs.

IE department and RDC department are connected with point-to-point Router connection.
From RDC to PT the connection will use Frame Relay connection.
GMI is given this private IP network address 10.10.0.0 by CICT. Starting with subnetting the
original address block of 10.10.0.0/16, fill up the following table for all possible subnets
using VLSM. Please show your workflow on how you get the answer.
