Wait, are we sure those subnets won't overlap?

The subnet 10.1.8.0/21 gives us 2048 IPs.

I think the key is ensuring no overlap, but I can't recall if we should go with the largest or smallest subnet option.

I feel like I might be overthinking the size of the subnets. Should we aim for /24 for each connection?

This question seems similar to the practice ones we did on subnetting. I think we need to divide the 10.1.8.0/21 into smaller subnets for the VPNs.

I remember we discussed subnetting in class, but I'm not entirely sure how to apply it here with the /21 prefix.

I'm confident I can solve this. The requirements are clear, and the subnet options provide enough information to determine the correct answer. I'll double-check my work, but I think Option C is the way to go.

This is a good test of my subnet planning skills. I'll need to consider the size of each subnet option and how it aligns with the stated requirements. I'm going to work through this step-by-step.

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is to find the smallest subnet that can accommodate the three new VPN connections without overlapping the existing network. I'm leaning towards Option B.

This looks like a tricky subnet design question. I'll need to carefully analyze the requirements and the subnet options to determine the best solution.
