IP addressing and subnetting course description
A course focusing purely on IP addressing and subnetting. The course assumes that delegates already have some knowledge of IP addressing. In particular delegates will be able to calculate subnet numbers in seconds without using binary.
What will you learn
Download and install Wireshark.
Calculate subnet numbers in seconds
Design IP addressing schemes.
Troubleshoot IP address problems.
Calculate CIDR prefixes in seconds

IP addressing review
What is an IP address? What is a subnet?
Classless IP addressing. The rules of IP
addressing. Ways IP addresses are used: On
hosts, in packets, in routing tables.
Hands on Byte
boundary subnetting.
Configuring IP addresses
Interfaces, Static vs. dynamic configuration.
DHCP: Scopes, leases, relays, using multiple
DHCP servers. Multihoming.
Subnetting
Default subnet masks, subnet notations. How to
subnet without binary. VLSMs.
Hands on Bit
boundary subnetting.
Address ranges and routing
Routing tables, IP address spoofing, host specific
routing, subnets in routing tables, supernets in
routing tables. CIDR. Impact of choice of routing
protocol.
Hands on IP addressing plans.
Allocations and assignments
IAB, IANA, RIRs, RIPE, LIRs and ISPs. PI vs. PA
addressing.
Hands on Querying the RIPE
database.
Private addressing and NAT
NAT, NAPT, NAT terms, private addresses, NAT
operation, NAT architecture, NAT and security,
why use NAT? NAT-ALG, Types of NAT, RSIP.
Special use addresses
Unicasts, broadcasts, multicasts, anycasts.
Directed broadcasts. Allowing broadcasts through
routers.
