At 14:50 you didn't show or explain if the networks shown all have the same subnet or not? They wouldn't right cause they'd still be able to talk to each other then?
Can't believe I sat 6 hours in school today, failing to understand subnetting and you managed to successfully explain it in just 18 Minutes. Just wow. 👏👏👏
Lots of companies still require education if some sort of not experience. Whether that be college or some type of online course. Self taught is a plus though
I have my associates in IT and I’m currently working on my bachelors degree in Cybersecurity and information assurance. I cannot explain how much this helped. None of my classes have explained this subject as eloquently as you!!! Thank you💛💛💛💛
I am currently taking IT courses now and I majorly agree with your comment. Watching a lot of these videos explains all this stuff much better I think because I'm a visual learner and my classmates even wait for my response to discussion questions cause I explain it as best possible as the videos along with giving the link to where I've learned the videos. 👍👍👍👍
Been IT for almost 20 years, I hate it. If you want a future in IT, get into military and do IT there, get all your certs, have your degree by them, and get a job using Skill bridge. This is of course if you are in your 20s…
I've been struggling with the subnet concept for months now, I have no real experience in Networking. I've watched a lot of different videos, read books, but no resource provided me with the full logic and method of creating a subnet. Now it all makes sense. Thank you!
Couldnt agree more. I kept scratching my head with much much longer courses that are very well respected. Watched this and he brought me easily to that Ah ha moment. I was like , why has no one else tried to explain it so easily
@@SethJohnson-o2k my thoughts exactly. I'm less than 4 weeks from my CISSP exam, and this video helped me a lot. I watched it a few times, made my own math on random examples, all in an effort to reinforce the knowledge and retain it. I retain knowledge best when I understand the logic behind something. Good luck on your journey!
One thing that I could not for the mental health of my instructor get past, was the "1's" part and coming up with the subnet mask value. I understood putting the "1" under the bit value position (kind of), but I couldn't understand the rule to know what positions to use/mark. Like "why not start at the lower end?" that I failed to ask him at the time. I couldn't make that last hop to relating _that_ specific action, to the end value of the subnet mask value. Another instructor was opposite us overhearing my instructor try to explain from a dozen different ways when he blurted out, *"You count the number of unbroken ones in a row."* 🤯 It was literally that last little piece of the puzzle to bring everything, concerning the subnet mask subject, together in my head.🤦 That memory is going to stick with me for a while.
Albert Einstein was right, he said: "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough!" this man understands it well that is why everything in his channel is so simple and easy to grasp! teaching is a talent, the will to give your best, dedicated to your work,... there are those who have a good understanding and professionals, but not talented for teaching, some others want to show off, that will ruin everything, that is why sometimes some are not professionals but have teaching talent better than those professionals with better understanding.
Hands down this 17:54 minute video gave me 100% clarity in understanding more about the subnet mask and subnetting. Your teaching style and simplistic videos have a tremendous effect! This definitely gives me a boost in preparing for the Network + certification. Thank you!!
I am a novice at networking and over the years I have wondered what the /24, etc meant. I could never find an explanation. No one has explained the slash notation better than you!!! Love it! I am a subscriber now.
This is some of the best content out there today regarding this topic! Clear, concise, and the visuals are incredibly helpful. I'm honestly surprised this isn't considered "Official CompTIA content" but also grateful it's available free on RUclips!
MAN! YOU ARE INCREDIBLE! I was reading for hours cisco manuals barley burning my brain! This here is gold! That's how you teach! Thank you very much for your hard work!
This 18mins video cleared all my doubts regarding subnets which i couldn't understand since ages and after watching tons of videos. This content is far better than what we learn in university. Thank you so much👏
Damn, I'm kind of addicted to this channel's content now. I came here after giving up re-watching my professor's 3 hours lecture focusing on this very concept and using MS Paint to explain. I honestly didn't expect to find myself more interested in actually learning computer network but when I watched this video it helped me understand and made me more invested in learning more about computer network. So I have been on a rampage watching video after video increasing my knowledge. Keep up the good work and please keep posting more videos!
Stumbled on this, I've been in Industrial IT / Automation for 30 years give or take, and this is a great explanation, simple easy to understand, great job
I'm beginning a career in IT and am trying to get my head around the basics of networking. I felt so overwhelmed with the idea of subnet masks and subnetting, and other videos were not helping. I'm so glad I came across this video, as I feel like I actually understand what these are for the first time! Thank you so much.
Same here I could wrap my head around basic networking just seemed logical and easy to map in my head but subnetting was challenging to grasp until now! lol
I'm in the Networking portion of TestOut for the CompTIA+ certification, and they are so brief with their info regarding things like this. I found these videos when I wanted to understand ports better, and I'm really glad that I did. It makes so much more sense with this explanation and visuals. Thanks!
I just started school for cybersecurity, and the professor tried to explain this and I was so lost!! But just in 17ms you explained it with professionalism, so much easier to understand! I thank you so much!
beautifully explained. I am in the middle of taking the Google IT support course and they are covering Subnet Masks. They over complicated it to the point were I did my own research and stumbled upon this video. Thank you for making it easier to understand!
@@PowerCertAnimatedVideos I'm in the same boat. I studied IT a decade ago, and subnet masks have always been like the dark arts to me. This video clearly explains how they work in a way I wish my instructor had all those years ago.
This is an example that nothing is really that complicated if you learn from a great educator, and unfortunately few teachers have that skill. I remember in high school geography friends from another class used to always excel better in that subject and seemed to grasp concepts easy. Towards exams our usual teacher wasnt there so they put everyone under one class. That day my mind was opened and I realised sometimes you not dumb, its just that you havent been taught right. The teacher truly explained things in the most practical way that made everyone just get it
@Claude Belanger Sometimes it's not just pure overthinking it's just that someone has made it seem more complicated that it actually is, causing others to overthink and fail to grasp.
This is the most clean, clear and concise explanation on such a confusing subject I have ever seen. Managed to explain what most college courses spend half a semester to explain. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
PERFECT. I was fortunate this quality of online instruction did not exist when I was an InClass instructor of this material. I would have been redundant. Congratulations.
I work for a major ISP, installing and troubleshooting for businesses. I am trying to advance my career to the Engineering side of the house and I have always wanted to know what the purpose of Subnet masks are. This video has blown my mind! It really reveals the genius of the internet's pioneers
I have a degree in computer science, however I never had a chance to completely understand subnet mask the way you did, I'm glad this channels exist to make things easier for everyone. Thank you.
Your Channel is the reason i got placed in campus. I work as a network engineer. Even after joining i come here for doubts and proper understanding. Thank you so so much. : )
Brilliant! I've spent a couple of hours trying to understand this by watching other presentations but this nailed it. Thanks for a really clear, understandable explanation.
It's just one of the most valuable easily comprehendible piece on subnetting. I have been struggling from quite some time to understand, but this finally served my objective.Thank You.Hoping more on Encryption !
I need to say that everytime I have a question or trouble to understand one matter, there isnt a single on this channel that hasnt helped me, I mean, I watch the videos and I can understand everything! I search and I search and this channel has ALWAYS the best and the easiest explanations! guys, you are incredible, thank you so much for this service! you help me a lot!!!
I've been a network engineer for years now. Will begin studying cyber security soon. I forgot most of this stuff. In practice it is automated. So I was a little nervous. Ran into your video. I'm feeling much better now. With the illustrations you hit a home run. Thank you sir!
Thank you sooo much! Today I was struggling with subnet mask calculations and I even read articles and such, but still could't figure out how to convert IP and Subnet addresses to binary, even though, I made binary to decimal calculations before. I thought IP and Subnet address calculations would be calculated differently, but turns out that I already knew how to calculate them but just didn't know they were calculated that way, because I couldn't find any explanation about that until I watched your video. Thanks a lot. I feel very confident about doing the calculations now.
Your videos about networking is just amazing. Clear explanation and intuitive, fun animation make unfamiliar terms easier to understand. I think this is one of the BEST Network lessons.
I just wanna thank you about this amazing explanation..I really appreciate your efforts to give us such important informations.. This is the best video on RUclips explain everything about subnet mask including examples and book for the beginners on Amazon.. Thank you so much..

I recommend this video for everyone who wants to understand the subnet mask and this channel for learning about the networking in general
After 8 actual months of stuggling to understand subnet masking when it came up in my independent studying, this video drilled it in in one go. I went from wildly nervous about the exam to confident after discovering this channel. Thanks for all the help, truly.
I'm a newbie in Networking, I've been watching many videos on subnetting but this is the ONLY one where I understood the concepts very well.. Thank You
Sir, this is the best explanation i've ever heard. I have a big project in Django coming up, and i needed to refresh my knowledge. I actually didn't count on doing that in 18 minutes, but you sir did it! Big props, like, and subscription.
I have taken many Udemy courses and none of them have explained the general subnet part like this one. Many instructors struggle to explain this topic but you make it very easy. Keep it up! I just Sub!
My teacher took almost 45 mins trying to explain this and he did a pretty good job of it but I was still a little fuzzy. You broke it down and made it super easy to understand in less than half that time. I hope you’re getting paid for this lol.
You have no idea how much I learned from your videos. I learned more from your channel than actual University clasess, your explanation and visualisation is a thousand miles better than anything I could find in books and courses. Thank you so much!!!
I literally stopped doing homework because I just didn't get it. In under 18 minutes on youtube, I can now actually finish my homework. You sir are a life saver and I wish we had more teachers like you
Wow, this went from being really complicated to really simple very quickly! It also answered my question as to what the /24 means at the end of my inet IP address. Thank you so much!
Hey, thank you so much. I'm currently taking a Google Career Certificate course for IT Tech Support and while the classes are pretty decent, these really help fill in the gaps and reinforce the concepts in a manner that's much easier for me to understand. I appreciate the hard work you've put into this.
Your videos are fantastic. You explain things in an understandable way and the visuals help a lot. I'm taking a network course and you explain these subjects better than my teachers and for free. Can you do a full video about subnetting? Thank you for your hardwork and keep going!
I don't know the abc of networking... just for some reason I needed to understand subnet mask... went through several videos and articles.. finally got the point..... outstanding !!!! enjoyed those 18 minutes to the fullest.....
Extremely well spoken, paced, animated. Plus that little bit of humour to keep the course pleasant and the mind awake. You made it extremely easy even for someone who's not so proficient in english. Thank you.
Seriously thank you so much, this was an amazing explanation. You saved me an entire week of confusion. Especially at 6:32, I was stuck on that, but now I understand, thanks to your video.
0:10 : What is an IP address. 1:11 : What is a Subnet Mask. 2:12 : How to convert IP addresses and subnet masks to binary form. 4:37 : Distinguish the network portion and the host portion of an IP address based on the subnet mask. 7:26 : Why does an IP address have a network and a host part? - A: Manageability. 10:20 : Networking audio book recommendation. 11:01 : Subnetting. 15:03 : Classes of IP addresses and subnet masks. 16:38: Subnet Masks in CIDR notation. Enjoy this great video, guys!
this video is incredible, I have struggled to undestand subnetting as a concept for the past 6 months of studying cisco ITN and your video actually made it click in my head. Thx for awesome educational tools.
I can't thank you enough for all the excellent content. For an IT newbie like myself, your videos have made the mundane easy to understand. In fact, I feel I want to learn more! Thank you so much and PLEASE, keep up the great work👍❤
I always got frustrated with teachers who gloss over an important step, assuming that the class will just "get it." You actually break it down to each bit (pun intended) so that we'd understand in depth. Whenever I get stuck, this is usually my first stop. Any chance on doing a video about VSLM? Thanks for your help!
i have watched a lot of video explanation about subnet and subnetmask, I've search about it a lot of times and even finish a network course but still can't fully understand it. But in your case you make it very simple and very easy to understand. A lot of thanks bro
I cannot tell you how many "ah-ha" moments I have had while watching your videos. I appreciate them so much. You take concepts that are so difficult to understand and you break them down into terms and language that is easy to follow. Thank you for this video as well as all your other videos.
Absolutely excellent video. After 25 years of trying to understand subnet masks and continually pushing my lack of knowledge under the rug, this video explains everything I need to know :)
hi, I've watched all videos in the network play list. And the journey has been amazing. And thank you for making those videos. 🤔Can you make a separate video on how to do subnetting ??.😀
This is obsoletely perfect video because you go through a simple, easy steps to follow and animations is another level. I was struggling to understand this topic but your video save my day, I don't know how to appreciate. Anyway thank you very much.
As always AMAZING video! Usually in books like Comptia Network+ or any Cisco networking training, they introduce CLASSFUL IP Address first [15:10], then CLASSLESS IP Address (CIDR) [14:15] Class A IP Address offers the ability to have around 16 million hosts (2^24) Class B IP Address offers the ability to have around 65 thousand hosts (2^16) Class C IP Address offers the ability to have around 254 hosts (2^8) But, if you only need let's say 1000 hosts, using Class A is not enough (256 < 1000) and using Class B is WAY TOO MUCH (1000 < 65,536)....That is where Classless IP Address comes in (CIDR). The best solution is to use CIDR /22 or 2^10 = 1024 hosts.
The way you find the binary form easier is to start from 128 subtract if you can and then move down the chart if the number can be subtracted. 1 if it can and 0 if it can't till you reach 0. However the way you find the number of hosts from the subnet is so smart and really helped me finally understand it. Thanks.
This is by far the most informative network video I've ever seen. The detailed yet concise and brief explanations combined with the animations is very effective. Thank you!
Wow thank you so much for providing this information! I have been stuck trying to understand subnetting and by the time I was finished I had a solid understanding of subnet masks. Thank you again!!!!!
Currently working on my Google it support certificate, and just had a class on this. My goodness did most of it go over my head, this really broke it down for me to understand. Thank you for this!
If computer A wants to communicate with computer B using the TCP/IP model, computer A will do a calculation using the IP Address of computer B and the Subnet Mask,this calculation can be done programmatically by the operating system , and then it will compare the result (which is the network ID) with the computer A network ID, if they match : computer A will send a broadcast message in the network asking for the MAC address for computer B so the communication can take place, if they didn't match : computer A will send an ARP request asking for the MAC address for the gateway , in this case communication between computer A and B will occur throughout the gateway or the router (I'm not sure about the difference between these two) , Thank u for the video, and please correct me if I'm wrong.
I have to be honest, this is the first video from this channel that I hardly understand. Thank you for sharing, I will rewatch this video until I get it.
I'd also like to ask if I follow the subnet, It will allow me to communicate to another Router? Like if the DHCP from my R1 is 10.0.1.1 will communicate with 10.0.2.1 if my subnet on my router's WAN is 255.255.0.0?
I've been struggling with this so badly, which I'm sure is pretty normal. This video REALLY helped break it down and will lead me towards what I need to know next. Thank you!
I truly appreciate the elegance in your narration and animation. I believe a lot of other RUclipsr's have a lot to learn - cut the fluff just enough to be infotaining.

Excellent break down thank you

Sir, this is the best explanation i've ever heard. I have a big project in Django coming up, and i needed to refresh my knowledge. I actually didn't count on doing that in 18 minutes, but you sir did it! Big props, like, and subscription.
Glad it was helpful!
I have taken many Udemy courses and none of them have explained the general subnet part like this one. Many instructors struggle to explain this topic but you make it very easy. Keep it up! I just Sub!
Glad it was helpful!
broadcast storm explanation is the best i've seen so far on youtube!
My teacher took almost 45 mins trying to explain this and he did a pretty good job of it but I was still a little fuzzy. You broke it down and made it super easy to understand in less than half that time. I hope you’re getting paid for this lol.
You have no idea how much I learned from your videos. I learned more from your channel than actual University clasess, your explanation and visualisation is a thousand miles better than anything I could find in books and courses. Thank you so much!!!
That was a GREAT explantation ! Every time I struggle on my networking course I come to you for help ! Thanks again for breaking it down my man !
Talk about lucky timing, just yesterday I was struggling to understand subnet masks.
I thought I was the only one!!
@@andrewalonsi same!
Me toooo..
Me too
One of the few tutorials that I've seen that really simplifies the who subnet mask subject matter! Excellent work, as always!
I literally stopped doing homework because I just didn't get it. In under 18 minutes on youtube, I can now actually finish my homework. You sir are a life saver and I wish we had more teachers like you
everytime I watch this video, I am blown away with the simplicity of the presentation. Once again, thank you !
Wow, this went from being really complicated to really simple very quickly! It also answered my question as to what the /24 means at the end of my inet IP address. Thank you so much!
Hey, thank you so much. I'm currently taking a Google Career Certificate course for IT Tech Support and while the classes are pretty decent, these really help fill in the gaps and reinforce the concepts in a manner that's much easier for me to understand. I appreciate the hard work you've put into this.
Same!
I'm here as well from that course! Lol. I just needed it explained more graphically than they did in the Google course.
Your videos are fantastic. You explain things in an understandable way and the visuals help a lot. I'm taking a network course and you explain these subjects better than my teachers and for free. Can you do a full video about subnetting? Thank you for your hardwork and keep going!
I don't know the abc of networking... just for some reason I needed to understand subnet mask... went through several videos and articles.. finally got the point..... outstanding !!!! enjoyed those 18 minutes to the fullest.....
Extremely well spoken, paced, animated. Plus that little bit of humour to keep the course pleasant and the mind awake. You made it extremely easy even for someone who's not so proficient in english. Thank you.
Seriously thank you so much, this was an amazing explanation.
You saved me an entire week of confusion. Especially at 6:32, I was stuck on that, but now I understand, thanks to your video.
I love how the animators manage to fit jokes in the animation, GREAT JOB!!
animation is so easy and simple, clear!

Enjoy this great video, guys!
Thank you.
this video is incredible, I have struggled to undestand subnetting as a concept for the past 6 months of studying cisco ITN and your video actually made it click in my head. Thx for awesome educational tools.
There is. no way anyone can come up with a better, simpler, shorter explanation that this one! Thank you for posting the video.
I am new to networking but the videos are very easy to follow and love learning. Thank you!
I can't thank you enough for all the excellent content. For an IT newbie like myself, your videos have made the mundane easy to understand. In fact, I feel I want to learn more! Thank you so much and PLEASE, keep up the great work👍❤
I always got frustrated with teachers who gloss over an important step, assuming that the class will just "get it." You actually break it down to each bit (pun intended) so that we'd understand in depth. Whenever I get stuck, this is usually my first stop. Any chance on doing a video about VSLM? Thanks for your help!
Although my English isn't the best, but I understand more than 90% of your explanation and I think you're the best one that can explain this field
i have watched a lot of video explanation about subnet and subnetmask, I've search about it a lot of times and even finish a network course but still can't fully understand it. But in your case you make it very simple and very easy to understand. A lot of thanks bro
This was terrific; thank you. You've demystified a ton of networking concepts in a concise and succinct fashion. Thank you very much!
This would have been so great 2 weeks ago when I was doing my aws cloud assignment, I cracked it in the end though. Good video keep at it
I cannot tell you how many "ah-ha" moments I have had while watching your videos. I appreciate them so much. You take concepts that are so difficult to understand and you break them down into terms and language that is easy to follow. Thank you for this video as well as all your other videos.
Absolutely excellent video. After 25 years of trying to understand subnet masks and continually pushing my lack of knowledge under the rug, this video explains everything I need to know :)
hi,
I've watched all videos in the network play list. And the journey has been amazing. And thank you for making those videos.
🤔Can you make a separate video on how to do subnetting ??.😀
I love your videos-quality, knowledgeable content that in an easy to understand format. Love the animations too!
Much appreciated!
Thank you so much for these videos, especially for making jokes during the animations, it helps me remember!
Glad you like them!
Good video but jokes about subnet masks make me angry.
@@jimjones3516 seems like ur a joke ur self...(joke sory no offence)
This is obsoletely perfect video because you go through a simple, easy steps to follow and animations is another level. I was struggling to understand this topic but your video save my day, I don't know how to appreciate. Anyway thank you very much.
Best Subnetting video found after watching 30+ videos. Finally got the core concept. Very clear. Thanks
As always AMAZING video! Usually in books like Comptia Network+ or any Cisco networking training, they introduce CLASSFUL IP Address first [15:10], then CLASSLESS IP Address (CIDR) [14:15]
Class A IP Address offers the ability to have around 16 million hosts (2^24)
Class B IP Address offers the ability to have around 65 thousand hosts (2^16)
Class C IP Address offers the ability to have around 254 hosts (2^8)
But, if you only need let's say 1000 hosts, using Class A is not enough (256 < 1000) and using Class B is WAY TOO MUCH (1000 < 65,536)....That is where Classless IP Address comes in (CIDR). The best solution is to use CIDR /22 or 2^10 = 1024 hosts.
Good tip in choosing CIDR over Class A/B/C.
BTW, don't you mean to say "using Class ***C*** is not enough (256 < 1000)".
I will need to watch this a few more times before getting a grasp of it. LOL
Thank you so much!!! You’re very good at explaining. ❤️❤️❤️
The way you find the binary form easier is to start from 128 subtract if you can and then move down the chart if the number can be subtracted. 1 if it can and 0 if it can't till you reach 0. However the way you find the number of hosts from the subnet is so smart and really helped me finally understand it. Thanks.
Of all the networking classes I've taken you are the first person to mention the '/ '. Thank you
If you're watching this, tomorrow is your exam.
Mine is in a week, thank you very much 😉
Nah mine is in 2 hours lmao
Did you pass yours? Mine is in 7 hours.
Naah broo, just 4 hours
Mine is in 25 minutes
I just want to thank you for the breakdown of subnets. This makes it easier for me to approach the subject with less anxiety. Thank you!!!
Thank you so much I was stumped in a test and you explained it more clearly in a few mins than my professor did in 3 weeks
This is by far the most informative network video I've ever seen. The detailed yet concise and brief explanations combined with the animations is very effective. Thank you!
Wow thank you so much for providing this information! I have been stuck trying to understand subnetting and by the time I was finished I had a solid understanding of subnet masks. Thank you again!!!!!
This is probably among the best videos I have watched about Subnet masking and networking.
Currently working on my Google it support certificate, and just had a class on this. My goodness did most of it go over my head, this really broke it down for me to understand. Thank you for this!
I Guess this is the best explanation of Sub Net Masking I have ever came across. Simple and Straight forward. Really very nice !!
If computer A wants to communicate with computer B using the TCP/IP model, computer A will do a calculation using the IP Address of computer B and the Subnet Mask,this calculation can be done programmatically by the operating system , and then it will compare the result (which is the network ID) with the computer A network ID,
if they match : computer A will send a broadcast message in the network asking for the MAC address for computer B so the communication can take place,
if they didn't match : computer A will send an ARP request asking for the MAC address for the gateway , in this case communication between computer A and B will occur
throughout the gateway or the router (I'm not sure about the difference between these two) ,
Thank u for the video, and please correct me if I'm wrong.
I have to be honest, this is the first video from this channel that I hardly understand. Thank you for sharing, I will rewatch this video until I get it.
I'd also like to ask if I follow the subnet, It will allow me to communicate to another Router? Like if the DHCP from my R1 is 10.0.1.1 will communicate with 10.0.2.1 if my subnet on my router's WAN is 255.255.0.0?
This is by far the best Subnet mask video. I've learned so much in just one video. Thank You.
The step-by-step breakdown of converting between these formats is particularly helpful. Well done! Thank You!
I've been struggling with this so badly, which I'm sure is pretty normal. This video REALLY helped break it down and will lead me towards what I need to know next. Thank you!
I like rewatching IT videos like these every few months and understanding them better each time.
I truly appreciate the elegance in your narration and animation. I believe a lot of other RUclipsr's have a lot to learn - cut the fluff just enough to be infotaining.
