A project to learn the fundamentals of networking:
IP Addressing • Subnetting • Routing • Network Logic
• Understand how IP addresses and subnet masks work
• Learn basic routing principles and apply them to practical scenarios
• Train logical thinking around network structures and connectivity
In each exercise, you configure devices to ensure proper communication across the network
• Assign valid IP addresses and subnet masks
• Add and edit static routes
• Debug and fix broken network setups
• Binary and decimal representation of IP addresses
• How to calculate subnets and subnet masks
• Network classes and private IP ranges
• Basic static routing concepts
• Use a subnet calculator to double-check your calculations
• Devices need to be in the same subnet to communicate directly
• Check routing tables carefully — don’t forget return paths
• Sketch the network or take notes to visualize connections
