What steps would you take to subnet a network?

Increments can be different depending on subnet /22 - /30

• Sub-Network Address - Check VLSM Table for Increment (ex. 0 increment by 32), Start at zero

• Broadcast Address - One less than Increment (ex. starts at 31) (Host ID is all 1s)

• Lowest Host Address - One above each Sub-Network Address (ex. 1)

• Highest Host Address - Highest Possible without taking a number from something else (One less than Broadcast Address) (ex. 30)

Given a subnet network address, how would you determine...

The broadcast address?

• Broadcast Address - One less than Increment (ex. starts at 31) (Host ID is all 1s)

The range of usable IP addresses?

• Stay between the increment range.

• Lowest Host Address - One above each Sub-Network Address (ex. 1)

• Highest Host Address - Highest Possible without taking a number from something else (One less than Broadcast Address) (ex. 30)
