When asked a subnetting problem, you can be presented with several pieces of
information that describe the situation. Given that information, it will be up to you
to figure out the remaining pieces of information to solve the problem. In this
document I will present solutions to problems in IP addressing and subnetting
work book v1.1 which was produced by Robb Jones. In the first part of the
workbook, the types of information that you must be able to identify are as
follows:
Information required Value
Address class
Default subnet mask
Custom subnet mask
Total number of subnets
Number of usable subnets
Total number of host addresses
Number of usable addresses
Number of bits borrowed
Let us now commence solving the problems skipping those that were already
solved as examples in the workbook.
