- Here is a method that simplifies the process of subnetting. Hopefully it will help you understand what's really happening when networks are divided up and why subnet masks are important.
For some background information on binary counting and conversion, check out these videos:

Finally somebody who claims to make it easy and actually DOES MAKE IT EASY.
i was absolutely writing the same damn thing
I this was not easy, then I don't know what's easy...
After about 20 videos and countless hours, I found this...and it makes sense. This is by far the best/easiest example I've found! Thank you!
After 2 days and also countless hours, I found this video. So simple!!
@@najashitv6460 usually you can find it if you have a slash notation, if it was say /25 the subnet mask would be 255.255.255.128 and /26 would be 255.255.255.192 and so on
I thought I was stupid as I was moving from video to video too! I realise now that it's just the way it's explained! What I find confusing us how is the subnet mask determined???
high five from 2019 !
@@waynev439 agreed....this video really very easy to understand the subnetting.
2.5 years working in IT and couple of Microsoft exams but this is the best way to subnet ever, no cheat sheets no nothing just pure logic, thank you!!!
But doesn't borrowing bits matter? I was hoping he would show us how to do that the simple way but nope lol
@@InfiniteTony for real, so confusing because the 2 in the 3rd segments in the Network adress only remains in the same casue it cancels each other out if you compare it in binary with the subnetmask. 00000010(IP segment) and if you compare it to 11111111(Subnetmasksegment) it remains 00000010(= 2). Terrible example in my opinion. The other parts were well explained tho.
ok
9 years later I’m here being so thankful to this video ❤️❤️ I’ve watched like 30 videos explaining this topic but you’ve done it so well and so easily. Thank you so much I need this for my exam 💪💪✨
I'm in CompTIA Network+ class right now, and we just learned to do subnetting last night, and I can tell you that it took MUCH longer for the instructor to go over it than you just did, and it was MUCH more difficult, not to mention confusing. Thank you for sharing this extremely simple method!
"Easy Subnetting": 30+ minutes of theory and confusing analogies. Thank you so much for making this video, I finally understand it after weeks of struggling.
Whenever I need to learn IP subnetting again I come back to this video, to this day this is the most simplistic and easiest way of understanding subnetting. Thank you Carl for sharing your knowledge.
5 years later and this is still the best explanation I could find about this. Thank you so much!
Carl, Your tutorial is THE ABSOLUTE BEST in this subject--confusing as it is. I'm studying for my CompTIA A+ and subnetting was the only thing keeping me from feeling confident I could pass the exam, let alone finish it! And you put this all together in just 5:40. Thank you so much, Carl! I especially loved the way you did the tutorial using a simple piece of paper and a pencil. It simulated what will actually be the case during an exam.
That’s hardly in the exam
13 years after completing my graduation have I understood this clearly here.
:D
got a mid-term on wednesday and was just looking for some clear information. fantastic (praise the University of TH-cam!! :D)
how was your exam
@@kentimancy i think he passed
Carl, I've been trying to figure out subnetting for longer than I'd like to admit. Your video finally made it click for me.
I'm so glad you never relied on borrowing bits, just plainly laying out what the binary is telling us.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
watched this video on my college years. watching it again for my interview assessment. God bless you
Ten years later and still Amazing video, I really appreciate it. You already have a new subscriber from Chile
I interviewed for a Cyber Security Analyst 2 position last week, and they threw me this curve ball. I haven't messed with this in years and forgot much of Subnetting. Definitely going to imprint this in my head now.
After researching books in the Uni library, going over classmates notes and asking the lecturer to re-explain THIS has made it SO MUCH EASIER. I created a template of yur sheet shown and now base all my subnetting off that! THANK YOU, so much easier to understand!
6 months of level 1 Cisco Networking Academy and I just now get subnetting thanks to your video. And my final on subnetting is tomorrow lol. Fuckin' THANK YOU!!!
Lol same, how was yours? mine is tomorrow actually.
It was difficult! Had to create 2 networks, one with 2 hosts and another with 30 hosts. Objective was to ping interfaces on a router and a switch from both PC-A and PC-B sides.
6 months? Damn. That's a lot of time. 🥲 18 days.
@@oliver_night2000 Looking back at this now, I'll admit that 6 months was a bit of an exaggeration lol. It was probably more like 3.
@@thegrandmaslayrDamn, I did not expect you to comment on a comment made on yours over 7 years ago. 😂
ive struggled all semester when it comes to questions about subnetting due to getting overwhelmed. Your clear and calm explanation helped in my breakthrough!
After watching several "subnet masking made easily" videos, I finally found this video: the first video that makes subnet masking easy! Thank you.
After 2 hours of rewatching the lecture and reading notes i came across this video and now everything makes sense
I've seen videos over 30 minutes long trying to explain this and I didn't understand any of them, however, ive learned more from your 5-minute video than I did from any other source, Thanks a bunch :)
Finally, an explination that delivers what the title says it will deliver.
Carl, in all my years of working with technology, this is by far the most straight forward explanation of subnetting / netmasking that I have ever seen. Excellent work! Thank you,.
Unbelievable how simple you made subnetting. Like so many others have said, countless videos, hours, textbooks, methods, charts and nothing was a clear and concise as this.
THANK YOU!! Terrific video.
This is NEVER not confusing. Once the 0's and 1's come out, my brain shuts down and I immediately go to online CIDR conversion tools.
You get the Network address, and you get the Broadcast address, and then everything else in between are the Hosts... wow, you made it super easy to figure this out. Thank you!
After wasting lots of time in waste videos....finally i found this. It realy help full
I am here after 10 years you made this video and finally, I have found something easy to learn. Still being helpful even for me and my Englis as my second language, challenging! thanks a lot.
Please give the award to this guy. After wasting my 60 mins, I found this. I don't know why you got dislikes.
10 years later you're still helping people because i FINALLY GET IT NOW
This explained subnetting in 5 minutes for what an hour long Coursera course made seem so confusing and complex....thank you.
Years ago when I was trying to learn about subnetting I watched countless videos. Then I came across this and all the bullshit everyone else couldnt explain finally made sense. This is the most elegant way to explain subnetting.
Im taking a network technician course and CCNA is part of it. I have not been able to grasp this AT ALL until I saw this video. Now it at least makes sense (i suck at math so binary conversions are already difficult for me). Ive been getting 90's on my exams and am currently on chapt 7 lol. Thank you for this. Its the only video/demonstration that made sense and many people have tried to tutor me IRL and on youtube LOL
This is bar far the best subnetting video in my option. I’ve been using this video for the past year. Whenever I get a bit flustered and forget what I know I come here for a quick 2 minutes and everything comes back. Great work!
Best explanation by far on TH-cam and I'm not even a native English speaker ;)
I seen the 240p resolution, I already knew I was gonna ACTUALLY learn something
This is worth its weight in GOLD!!!! GOOOOLLLLLLDDDDDD!
Goldmember?
😂😂😂😂😂
Are you a prospector? GOOOOLLLLD!!!
10 whole years later, somehow this is the best explanation I've found. Thank you
Bro, after many videos, your 9year old video is the one that still shined.
Computer Networks Final tomorrow
Cramming the material
You just made my life a lot easier
Simple, logical, and well put
Thank you
I have been battling with subnetting for years. so many confusing video on the internet. Your explanation is well simplified and insightful. Thank you so much.
This was made 5 years ago and it is the best video I've seen concerning sub-netting.
This is the simplest explanation of subnetting. Thank you for making this video. Like other commentors, I've gone round the subnetting video circuit, head spinning from various explanations. This video is brief, to the point. Doesn't take lots of time. Subnetting makes sense now.
You are an excellent teacher! Best and clearest explanation I have ever seen. Einstein said " if you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough."
Thank you for existing. Too many 20 min videos trying to sound complex when it's really simple.
so many years later and you still saving people my bruh
Saw a lot of videos with shortcuts, but what I really needed was the "HOW".. and this video explained it.
After struggling for many hours , finally a 5 min video made me sleep peacefully as i got the exact point needed. This is by far the best way i've found. Thank you so much. Generally I am a person who don't write comments, but this video is worth appreciating
Firstly i did not understand what you were doing, after doing the same thing on paper with a different subnet i found out how it works, i'm very happy with the knowledge it works on all subnet classes , thank you
Carl, you absolute legend!! I have been searching the net for a decade for a simpler explanation of subnetting. Thank God I found this. Thank you🙏👍.
thank you sweet jesus, saved my ass for an upcoming exam :D
+sailor gang or die Same here! :)
Jesus and ass in the same sentence? Okay, but I share the sentiment.
WTF???!!!!! THANK YOU SIR! I've watch vidéos of people drawing tables, using mines etc.... when you've explained this in less than 6 minutes. You're the GOAT
2 years of learning subnetting and i knew nothing but after this video I understand all of it.
/26 means there are 26 1's and the rest of the 32 are 0. FINALLY, after hours of googling no one explained it that way. You saved my ass man thank you.
You just go by , life is simple, dont complicate it, appreciate it man.
how tf is this the best explanation I've seen?? This makes it look so simple. Just seeing the correlation between the binary values in subnet and IP made it click for me!
Man... I was having soo many difficulties on CompTIA. Thanks for this seriously.
I wasn't feeling very well this couple of days recently and I missed the lecture. I have a test coming next week and you've just royally saved my ass! Thank you, sir!
D*mn dude, you took something that normally takes hours to explain and knocked it down to under 6 minutes kudos!
filmed with a potato, yet its the first video that actually made this click for me! Thank you! PS: consider remaking this in HQ for the kids to come!
I gonna remember this for my entire life. Perfectly explained🙌
The best clarification of subnetting I have ever seen thanks bro
OMG this was bursting my head.. after 2 weeks of videos I found this... thank you sir
I don't usually comment frequently, but I just HAVE TO!
I have been searching for videos, reading notes mine and others, watching 3 different Doctors + 3 different TA's as I take it in 3 different subjects, AND YOU JUST made it as simple and easy as that, after HATING subnetting for the past 6 months, I'm actually starting to LIKE it and if possible close to LOVING it.
For real, god bless you and your heart, and may your world be as easy as how you made subnetting for me and thousand of others just like me.
I thank you for the deep deep of my heart.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️!!!
i watched 3 videos of +35 min of what you explained to me in 5 min!thanks
The best and easier way I have seen to subnet. Thanks you Carl Oliver.
Excellent! Amazing how few really good teachers that are able to break it down like this.
i understand sub netting within 2:43 minutes what i couldn't understand last 10 years. Thanks Carl
the best video Ive come across for subnetting. You make it so "for dummies" I actually understood this faster.
Was in a lecture for an hour, learnt nothing, came here for 6 mins, understand everything. Thank you
WOW! This video would have been so helpful months ago. Glad i found it before my exam on tuesday!!!! This method made me understand immediately.
Just a marker and paper but the best video on subnetting on TH-cam..
10 years later and ur still a life saver! thank u thank u THANK UUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
THANK YOU! I can’t say it enough i check every site for understandable subnetting tutorial i found none they we overly complicated thanks to you now i finally knows it Thanks
Working on my Networking+ and was struggling with subnetting. The simple way you explain it cleared the subject right-up for me! Something about the way others try to teach is convoluted and use methods that now seem overly complicated. My future career and I thank you.
Glad it helped!
Literally the easiest video I've seen. My only suggestion would be re-doing & showing the binary numbers for beginners so it makes sense what you're adding up. I'm a Cybersecurity Student so I get it but beginners may not. Wonderful video, I subscribed.
Advice to viewers : this is the most simple and quick way to learn subnetting. Viewing other subnetting videos other than this will only make the subject complex . This is the best and simplest method .
Thank you so much; a concept that I didn't understand for six months you taught in less than six minutes. I can finally take the Net+ exam.
Wow 5:40mins of precious time and teaching.. It was really helpful and tricky rather than watching 20mins video nith hell confusions.. Thank you so much sir.. 2013-2020 ..
Finally, I found this. You don't know how happy I am right now.
This video still valid in 2023. Absolutely amazing stuff!👍
Give him an award to make this kind of contents bro .. thanks alot you save my lot of time...
Truly simplified the basics of a subnet. Would love to see how you break down VLSM.
I've come here to say the same thing as many others. Thank you! I have watched so many videos. I have read so many books and I only found myself getting more and more confused and irate. I stumbled across your video when I wasn't even looking for it and I watched it and BOOM! It clicked immediately. Seriously mate, thank you.
Dear lord I have an exam tomorrow and this part didn't make a lick of sense till I saw your video! Thank you for te great explanation!
Best explanation. Not even a trained cisco certifier can explain this so easily. God bless!
I've seen a lot of "How To" videos concerning sub-netting, and how to make it easy, but this is the greatest of them all by far. Thanks man!
You, sir, are definitely overdue for the Nobel prize in IT. Thank you...a million times, THANK YOU!
Thank you for your video! This is the first time I truly understand subnetting!
This is the simplest and most perfect explanation of SUBNETTING on the whole damn internet! Now, do one for VLSM pls.
I have been learning this for 9 days but no avail. Dude just saved me❤❤❤❤❤
The title did not disappoint. Legit this makes it so easy.
I watched so many videos and I have to say that your teaching method is short, sweet, simple and straight to the point.
You're a genius!! Thanks. All the others take a whole freaking hour to show this and put you to sleep.
I won't say you went in depth but wow, with this video I can go back to my lecture and actually piece together everything, your video was the catalyst I needed.
Thank you dude! You thaught me in like 5 minutes what my teacher at school failed to teach me in about half a year!
This is probably the best video which explains subnetting very clearly
Excellent! Now I can perform this operation in reverse using only the netmask and broadcast provided by the ifconfig command. I can get the number of hosts, the gateway, and the mask slash number. Genius.
You took something inconceivable and turned it into something I could understand. You are my new hero!!
This is one of the best videos for showing an easy way to do subnetting by hand. Love the method.
