Common Mistakes to Avoid
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Forgetting to subtract 2 from the host count (network and broadcast addresses)
A /24 has 256 addresses but only 254 usable hosts. The first address is the network identifier and the last is the broadcast. Exception: /31 point-to-point links use both addresses (RFC 3021).
Confusing subnet mask with wildcard mask
Subnet mask has network bits as 1s (255.255.255.0). Wildcard mask inverts this (0.0.0.255). Cisco ACLs use wildcard masks; routing protocols use subnet masks.
