Gotta understand this for my CISCO CCNA 1 Final.  I got a 43.7 on it, just cause I don't understand this shit.  Spent two whole days on it.

I need to ace this retake.  Can anyone help me?  It seems so confusing, no matter what website I go on...

kk. subnetting is basically creating semi-autonomous, subsidiary networks within a larger network, to permit a) easier data flow, usually within the subsidiary network "node" without said data having to go through the entire network and b) to manage data flow levels--i.e. making them lower, to increase performance.
reply with anything else you need to know

Do you know your default subnet masks? 
The way I learned it is to use the 2n-2 formula.  Hard to explain.  I'll point you to this website.  Maybe it will help you out.

well, i know what it is, i need to know how to do it.  for instance:

A company is using a Class B IP addressing scheme and expects to need as many as 100 networks. What is the correct subnet mask to use with the network configuration?
    255.255.0.0
    255.255.240.0
    255.255.254.0
    255.255.255.0
    255.255.255.128
    255.255.255.192
A company is planning to subnet its network for a maximum of 27 hosts. Which subnet mask would provide the needed hosts and leave the fewest unused addresses in each subnet?
    255.255.255.0
    255.255.255.192
    255.255.255.224
    255.255.255.240
    255.255.255.248

Refer to the exhibit. A technician is planning an addressing scheme for a branch office as shown in the exhibit. What is the status of the intended network?
    The configuration will work as planned.
    The subnetwork mask of host A is incorrect.
    The default gateway of host A is a network address.
    The addresses on the router LAN interfaces are on the same subnetwork.
    The IP address of host A is on a different subnetwork than the subnetwork that the Ethernet router interface is on.

43.7%?

That is difficult.

Yeah.  Everyone else failed too.  Everyone's retaking after school tomorrow, lmao.

Although I pass the class regardless because of my semester grade.

i'll look at that, thanks...
I sees. well, i'm not quite up to speed on the technical aspects of it all, so i'm afraid i'm in the same boat as you, or even below the waterline...
all I can say is good luck--and if you can, ask a dude who knows, face-to-face. That should help.

Also, I forgot to say, do you know your IP Classes?  Like Class A IP address is 0-127 (0 and 127 are reserved), Class B is 128-191, class c is 192-223, class D is used for multicast, and class E is reserved for experiments.  This is important to know because you can determine the number of hosts each IP address has just by looking at its ip address. 

Edit:  If you aren't up to speed on your IP classes, here here is a quick tutorial on it.

Let me know if you figure it out.  I could tell you the answer/s but you won't know how to do it unless you figure it out urself.

I am in the class as well, it was very difficult for me to understand as well.

Yes its not normally offered in High School, but where I live we have a school that you can go to for 1/2 the day and take this class for college credit.
