I used the methods from class to determine the network address, broadcast address, first usable IP, last usable IP, and the total number of hosts for two different subnets. I also completed a short Bash script for the extra credit to print numbers using both a <strong><code>for<\/code> <\/strong>loop and a <strong><code>while<\/code> <\/strong>loop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key Concepts I learned<\/strong><br>This assignment reinforced how subnet masks define network and host portions of an IP address. I gained more confidence converting between decimal and binary, calculating block sizes, and determining usable ranges. It also connected basic scripting concepts with networking tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Challenges:<\/strong><br>The most challenging part was staying consistent when converting to binary and making sure the network and broadcast calculations were correct. Double-checking the block size helped avoid mistakes. Also the bash scripting took a little effort since scripting is not my strong suit.<\/p>\n\n\n<b>PDF Embedder requires a url attribute<\/b>\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!selectors.core.file.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/dhill036\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/38343\/2025\/11\/Assignment-10-Networking-Basics-and-Subnetting.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of Lab 10.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-060d40e1-c6ef-477f-aac7-d20a9d014651\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/dhill036\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/38343\/2025\/11\/Assignment-10-Networking-Basics-and-Subnetting.pdf\">Lab 10<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/dhill036\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/38343\/2025\/11\/Assignment-10-Networking-Basics-and-Subnetting.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-060d40e1-c6ef-477f-aac7-d20a9d014651\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My Experience on This LabIn this assignment, I practiced calculating subnet information using CIDR notation.
