In this course, you’ll learn the basics of IPv4 addressing and master the skill of subnetting.

Specifically, you’ll learn how to:

• Describe the structure of an IPv4 address.
• Recognize IPv4 address classes.
• Distinguish between public and private IPv4 addresses.
• Explain the difference between unicast, broadcast, and multicast communications.
• Convert binary numbers to decimal.
• Convert decimal numbers to binary.
• Determine how many subnet bits are required to create a specific number of subnets.
• Calculate how many host bits are required to support a specific number of hosts.
• Given an IPv4 address and a subnet mask, calculate the network and directed broadcast addresses.
• Calculate the usable range of IPv4 addresses for a subnet.
• Troubleshoot incorrectly assigned IPv4 addresses.
