IP Subnetting made easy on TechRepublic
If you’ve read my posts you’ve seen I’m trying to get my Microsoft Certified IT Professional status. This means getting reacquainted with things I went trough in school but have since forgot. One of these things is IP Subnetting. So I needed to find a good guide to refresh my memory. Googling I found there are many guides out there, but this one is mine (a little Full metal Jacket joke), but I found one on Techrepublic that was really in-depth and easy to follow. The writer, George Ou knows what he is talking about and makes following his writings easy. If you don’t have the time to read the whole article at least take a look at the part where he is using the Windows standard calculators AND function. Did you know about that?

Calculating subnets
For those normal times when you’re not sitting in an exam and you’re able to use a specific calculator for this task I suggest you take a look at the following.
As with posts about calculating subnets, there are many subnet calculators out there. These two are the ones I use every time I need to calculate networks. The Online Subnet calculator is specifically good if you’re on a customers computer and don’t want to install anything while IP Subnet Calculator is something I keep installed on both my laptop and my desktops to be able to quickly check network settings if I need to.
