Subnetting help

Hey guys, I am level 1 networker in training, any advice or tricks I can borrow from you guys in subnetting?

Lets use example 193.15.7.0 with 10 subnetworks. I would just need overall advice on how to get:

Bits borrowed?

Bits Remaining?

and Writing the subnets bits in 1's and host as 0's.

Hi

You could begin learning the Formulas used to subnetting, there are many ways to subnetting, each pleople has its own method, I use the following for example:

 

Formulas:

Available bits:

32 - CIDR =  # available bits to subnetting

 

n = represents bits that will be working with the available bits through 1 or 0. 

 

To get X amount of subnets

2^n >= # of subnets required

 

To get X amount of hosts

[(2^n) - 2) >= # of hosts required

 

To get the block size:

256 - (Alterared Octets) = Size. 

 

 

Hope it is useful

:-)

"trick" - find a subnetting calculator.

If you're looking for how to do it manually, such a question is better posted on Cisco's learning forums.
