IP Addressing & Subnetting

Understand how IP addresses work and learn to divide networks efficiently using subnet masks, CIDR notation, and Variable Length Subnet Masking (VLSM). This module is essential for real-world network design and CCNA preparation.

What You’ll Learn

  • Understand IPv4 structure: Network, Host, and Broadcast addresses.
  • Calculate subnets using CIDR and subnet masks.
  • Learn how VLSM optimizes IP address usage.
  • Design scalable and efficient network topologies.
