PracNet Subnetting - Watch Out
- Make sure to PASS the target IP address when incrementing.
- Sometimes when we’re incrementing to pass the target IP address, we might increment until we reach .256.
- However, .256 does not exist, that’s why we will enter the next subnet/octet when this happens.
Example in 64 bit increments:
- (10.0.1.192 ⇒ 10.0.1.256 || WRONG ❌)
- (10.0.1.192 ⇒ 10.0.2.0 || RIGHT ✔️)

| Tip (2) When we’re incrementing to pass the target IP address, we can’t go into .256 for example, instead, you will enter the next subnet/octet. |
