Ok. guys I'm new in networking. I just read about the tcp/ip chapter in MCSA of William Panek. This line really confuses me. I think something is wrong. "What happens if you need eight subnets in your ...

If computers in an open network talk freely with one another and two computers start talking at the same time, you have a “data collision.” Collisions may be arbitrated via Carrier Sense Multiple ...

The bits in the mask identify both hosts and subnets. The more hosts, the fewer subnets; the more subnets, the fewer hosts can be individually addressed. These bits become a tradeoff based on the ...

Today, the standard methods for moving the network/host address boundary are variable-length subnet masking (VLSM) for host addressing and routing inside a routing domain, and classless interdomain ...

The following summarizes how networks, subnetworks and hosts are identified in the TCP/IP protocol. An IP address is first divided between networks and hosts. The host bits are further divided between ...

For one to be able to create multiple logical networks within a Class A, B, or C network, one needs to know the principle of subnet. Without using subnets, one could only use a single network no ...
