Objectives:

Cisco IP Addressing Design Concepts

  • identify IPv4 address structure and classes and how to calculate the number of usable hosts per subnet.
  • determine the network size with respect to the IP addressing plan and determine which type of address to use and where.
  • recognize the impact of IP addressing on the choice of routing protocol.
  • identify and implement the appropriate method to determine host IP addressing and name resolution.
  • compare different IPv4 address structures, identify where to use private and public addresses, and recognize the effects of addressing on routing, given specific scenarios.
  • recognize the features of the IPv6 address structure and list and identify IPv6 address types.
  • determine IPv6 assignment and name resolution strategies and identify strategies for IPv4 to IPv6 migration.
  • propose the optimal IP addressing plan for a given network scenario and select the IP address assignment mechanisms that suit the customer needs.
