Title: BSCN/Routing 2.0 Test Question

I'm not trying to start a fight or anything, but i laugh everytime i hear someone say you will live by subnetting, in 5 years its never been an issue,   see ya   -----Original Message----- From: Fernandez, Raul Sent: Wednesday, November 22, 2000 2:10 PM To: Pickett, Mike; Jim Erickson; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: BSCN/Routing 2.0 Test Question Well, I believe you dont use subnetting enough then if you think a calculator is needed. Once in the industry you will live by it and you should be able to do it in your head for the most part. Even VLSM which is just the subnetting of subnets. Forget calcs its not that difficult.   Sincerely, Raul -----Original Message----- From: Pickett, Mike <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Jim Erickson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wednesday, November 22, 2000 1:18 PM Subject: RE: BSCN/Routing 2.0 Test Question took it this morning and passed with a 759, not awful for doing it in 10 days.  There was one subnetting question about # of host, no big deal, and there was some on vlsm and summarization, but very easy questions on it.  now about that bottom line you wrote.....i can think of nothing worse than live to subnet, : ), thats what calculators are for     -----Original Message----- From: Jim Erickson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, November 22, 2000 11:01 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: BSCN/Routing 2.0 Test Question I don't remember much straight-up subnetting, but if you read the exam objectives, this exam does cover VLSM and route summarization. If you have trouble doing 'normal' subnetting, these will kill you.   Learn to subnet, live to subnet, love to subnet!   ---JRE--- ""Pickett, Mike"" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Hey, Just wondering if anyone knows how much subnetting there is on this test, with questions such as determine the # of networks/host/broadcast address of a given ip address thanks!
