Master subnetting with this step-by-step guide. Learn binary and hexadecimal, and understand Classful vs Classless networking easily.
This course simplifies subnetting with an easy, step-by-step approach. You'll learn to read binary and IP addresses, break them down, and build networks without the stress. It's all about making subnetting feel like a walk in the park!
Subnetting does not have to be as hard as most make it out to be. Start from the beginning and take it step by step.
Whether you're just starting to learn subnetting or have been struggling with it for awhile, this guide will show you the easy way to learn to it and have you subnetting like a pro in no time. Starting with how to read binary numbers and IP addresses, you will then be walked through the process of breaking them down and creating any kind of network.
Learn to read and create binary numbers from 0 thru 255
Learn to read and create hexadecimal numbers from 0 through 9 and A through F
Discover the difference between Classful and Classless networking

Linda has a Bachelor degree in both IT and Accounting and currently works in the IT industry. Since 1998 she has also worked as an online writer for companies such as About.com and Suite101.com. By putting all her skills together from her accounting (math), IT (computers), and online writing (educating), she has designed a course for beginners on subnetting and...
The course is straight forward and to the point, that's what I liked about it.
This is a good course to take if you are having trouble with your teacher of addressing, binery conversion and subnetting as most teachers have to work their lecture within unreasonable time constraints.
Great introduction I think my subneting nightmare will end with ur trining thanks
This course starts off really simple, no bad thing if you already know that bit, its nice to refresh.
sub netting starts off great and well paced, but then she starts taking too big a steps. And your left wondering where did that value come from.
It give the impression the end parts of the course were rushed through
Hi Linda,
I got lost in two places. You keep talking about a # to the power of another number but do not explain how to figure that out either on paper or using a calculator and in the part where you are figuring out how many subnets there will be you just say 2 sq'd by the number of bits taken. I was lost from that point on. On your examples you verbally say what the starting IP address is that we are going to find out what subnet it is in but you only write down the subnet info, it would be good to have the original IP number so we can visually see it while you are going through the demo.
Working with the charts using bits taken, bits left, increments needed, etc really clears a lot of this up. Using these tips/tricks is very helpful. Instuctor speaks clearly, good voice tone. (rated 4 as some charts could be better aligned for clarity [use mono font to align binary digits]).
There was a little too much time spent on basics (binary numbers, hex, etc.) -- anyone who is studying for a Network+ or Cisco cert should already have that stuff down pat. However, it was a decent refresher of the mechanics of calculating subnets.
Great course to gain the basics of subnetting. Easy to follow. There were a couple things I would have liked explained a little clearer such as the IPv6 subnets when the /xx bits are not divisible by 4. However, if you are understanding the material you will be able to figure it out. I would recommend this course to my peers.
Only a few lectures in and I already know way more than the almost nothing that I knew previous to me taking this class. I can only look forward to the rest of the lectures and the knowledge that I will gain!

Good basic course
