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 ...

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 ...

Broadcast and video production systems are moving rapidly into the IP realm. Therefore, understanding IP basics is now part of the engineer’s toolkit. To understand how IP works, we need to understand ...

Table 1. This table illustrates subnet masks. The number after the “/” in the CIDR notation indicates the total number of IP addresses available. Click here to see an enlarged diagram. Understanding ...

If you're looking to segment a TCP/IP network, subnetting is not your only option. CIDR, or supernetting, is another way to accomplish the task and offers some unique solutions. Here's how to use ...

Supernetting was created as a way to solve the problem of routing tables growing beyond our current ability to manage the exhaustion of Class B network address space. Much like one area code ...

If Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) didn’t exist, network administrators would have to manually parcel out IP addresses from the available pool, which ...

Interesting one for you all. Just set up Exacq NVR with IP cameras and a network speaker but the speaker IP was incorrectly configured and sits on a different subnet. All devices sit on the same ...

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 ...
