101 Labs - Book Series Experts agree that we retain only 10% of what we read but 90% of what we do. Perhaps this explains why the global pass rate for most IT exams is a ghastly 40%. This is where the 101 Labs book series can help. We are revolutionizing how IT people train for their exams and the real world with our Learn - By - Doing teaching method. 101 Labs' mission is to turn you into an IT expert by doing instead of reading. Using free software and free trials, our experts take you by the hand and walk you through every aspect of the protocols and technologies you will encounter in your IT career. We share our configuration tips and tricks with you as well as how to avoid the common mistakes many novice engineers make, which can quickly become career-ending. 101 Labs - IP Subnetting Subnetting is one of the toughest subjects for IT students and engineers to understand. You have to master binary math, hexadecimal numbering systems and address classes. You must determine which IP address is in which subnet and which subnet mask will provide you with the requisite number of subnet and hosts-per-subnet. You will often have to do this during a crisis on a live network with your boss, customers and other engineers watching you! Subnetting questions form around 9% of your score in exams such as CompTIA Network+ and the Cisco CCNA. If you work in IT, you will be expected to understand how to subnet and troubleshoot subnetting problems. You will also be expected to be able to allocate IP addressing schemes to various departments in your organization. For job interviews you can expect to be grilled on subnetting problems by senior engineers. 101 Labs - IP Subnetting shows you how to answer any subnetting or network design problem using a simple Cheat Chart. All you need to do is tick the boxes and you get the answer, usually in under 60 seconds. We show you how to subnet IPv6 networks, work out wildcard masks for your firewalls, NAT, routing and access lists. We also show you how to summarize routes for your routing advertisements. All answers and working out are provided. You finish by drilling 33 exam style questions so by the end of the course, you will be the go-to subnetting expert at work.

It now features Performance-based questions (PBQs). These questions test your configuration and troubleshooting skills and add a new level of complexity to the exam. The only way to answer these types of questions is to have hands-on experience with the protocols and technology listed in the exam syllabus. The Network+ exam is probably the most useful exam in the IT industry. It equips you with all the necessary knowledge you need in order to work with other IT professionals and work in the IT industry. You learn TCP/IP, security, networking protocols and standards, best practices, subnetting and IP addressing, IPv6, troubleshooting tools and software, security, wireless, routing protocol basics, and much more. CompTIA presumes around 9-12 months of on-the-job experience for all of its exams, but of course, most of the students who take the exam don't have this. Even if they are working in IT roles, such as in helpdesk or server support, they will have been exposed to only a tiny number of the skills tested in the exam. Doing all the labs in this book will give you that experience. Please use the free resources at www.101labs.net/resources which will help you with the labs.
