      @@najashitv6460 usually you can find it if you have a slash notation, if it was say /25 the subnet mask would be 255.255.255.128 and /26 would be 255.255.255.192 and so on

      @@InfiniteTony for real, so confusing because the 2 in the 3rd segments in the Network adress only remains in the same casue it cancels each other out if you compare it in binary with the subnetmask. 00000010(IP segment) and if you compare it to 11111111(Subnetmasksegment) it remains 00000010(= 2). Terrible example in my opinion. The other parts were well explained tho.

    I'm in CompTIA Network+ class right now, and we just learned to do subnetting last night, and I can tell you that it took MUCH longer for the instructor to go over it than you just did, and it was MUCH more difficult, not to mention confusing. Thank you for sharing this extremely simple method!

    Carl, Your tutorial is THE ABSOLUTE BEST in this subject--confusing as it is. I'm studying for my CompTIA A+ and subnetting was the only thing keeping me from feeling confident I could pass the exam, let alone finish it! And you put this all together in just 5:40. Thank you so much, Carl! I especially loved the way you did the tutorial using a simple piece of paper and a pencil. It simulated what will actually be the case during an exam.
