What you'll learn
Learn how IPv4 addresses are structured, how subnet masks work, and how devices communicate within and across networks. This course, IPv4 Addressing and Subnetting Fundamentals, will help beginners, aspiring network engineers, and IT professionals develop a strong understanding of IPv4 networking fundamentals. First, you’ll discover the foundations of binary numbers and their relationship to IPv4 addressing. Next, you’ll explore network and host portions of an IP address, network IDs, broadcast addresses, and valid host ranges. As the course progresses, you will learn how to perform subnetting calculations, determine the number of available hosts and networks, and design efficient IP addressing schemes for real-world environments. By the end of this course, you will have a solid understanding of IPv4 addressing and subnetting, two of the most fundamental skills required in computer networking.
