6.2.1 Types of Addresses in an IPv4 network
 Network address - The address by which we refer to the network. It is
the lowest address is reserved for the network address. (All host bits
is 0)
 Broadcast address - A special address used to send data to all hosts
in the network. It is the highest address in the network range. (All host
bits is 1)
 Host addresses - The addresses assigned to the end devices in the
network.

6.3.1 Planning to Addresses the Network
 It’s a structure process, should be planned and documented.
Preventing duplication of addresses
Providing and controlling access
Monitoring security and performance
 The different types of hosts within a network
hosts are associated with an IPv4 network by a common network
portion of the address
End devices for users
Servers and peripherals
Hosts that are accessible from the Internet
Intermediary devices

6.3.1 Planning to Addresses the Network
 Planning to Addresses the Network Considerations
include:
Will there be more devices connected to the network than public
addresses allocated by the network's ISP?
Will the devices need to be accessed from outside the local network?
If devices that may be assigned private addresses require access to
the Internet, is the network capable of providing a Network Address
Translation (NAT) service?

128-bit hierarchical addressing - to expand addressing
capabilities
Header format simplification - to improve packet handling
Improved support for extensions and options - for increased
scalability/longevity and improved packet handling
Flow labeling capability - as QoS mechanisms
Authentication and privacy capabilities - to integrate security

and host portions

6.4.2 ANDing – What is in our network?
 When ANDing between the address and the subnet mask is performed, the
result yields the network address.
 Routers use ANDing to determine an acceptable route for an incoming packet.
 An originating host use ANDing to determine if a packet should be sent
directly to a host in the local network or be directed to the gateway.

6.5.1 Basic Subnetting
 Each interface on a router must have a unique network ID
 Create the subnets by using (borrow) one or more of the host bits
as network bits.
 Subnets number=2^n (n = the number of bits borrowed)
 Host number= 2^n - 2 (n=the number of bits left for hosts)

 Ping
It is a utility for testing IP connectivity between hosts.

on the host.

6.6.5 ICMPv4 – The Protocol Supporting
Testing and Messaging
 Internet Control Messaging Protocol (ICMPv4)
ICMP is the messaging protocol for the TCP/IP suite

It is actually a separate Layer 3 protocol of the TCP/IP suite
ICMP messages that may be sent include:
Host conformation
Unreachable Destination or Service
Time exceeded
Route redirection
Source quench
