Lab Manual, Page 43: Errors In "Defining a Subnet Mask" Section
---------------------------------------------------------------
The section under the chart on page 43 incorrectly states that the value of x
must be at least 5, and the value of y must be at least 7. It should state that
the value of x must be at least 7, and the value of y must be at least 8. Also,
the last bullet should be ignored because it incorrectly states that you could
use 9 and 7. Using 7 bits would not produce a result greater than the required
200.
Change:
"Therefore, for the problem above, the value of x must be at least 5, and the
value of y must be at least 7. Further, x+y must be 16. You could choose to
use:
7 bits for subnetting and 9 bits for hosts per subnet, or
8 bits for subnetting and 8 bits for hosts per subnet, or
9 bits for subnetting and 7 bits for hosts per subnet."
