IP Addressing and Subnetting Lab
Master IP addressing, subnetting, and CIDR notation by designing a real-world company network with proper subnet allocation.
Lab Overview
In this hands-on lab, you'll learn essential IP addressing and subnetting skills that platform engineers use daily. You'll work with IPv4 addresses, calculate subnets using CIDR notation, and design a complete network architecture for a small company.
You'll use real networking tools like ping, traceroute, and IP calculators to understand how IP addresses work, how to divide networks into subnets, and how to plan IP address allocation efficiently.
By the end of this lab, you'll understand:
- IPv4 address structure and classes
- Subnetting with CIDR notation
- Network and broadcast address calculation
- Practical subnet design for multi-tier applications
- IP address allocation best practices
