SUMMARY
This article contains comments, corrections, and information about known errors relating to the Microsoft Press book TCP/IP for Microsoft Windows NT, Academic Learning Series, ISBN 0-7356-0522-X.

The following topics are covered:


 * Lab Manual, Page 43: Errors In "Defining a Subnet Mask" Section



Lab Manual, Page 43: Errors In "Defining a Subnet Mask" Section
The section under the chart on page 43 incorrectly states that the value of x must be at least 5, and the value of y must be at least 7. It should state that the value of x must be at least 7, and the value of y must be at least 8. Also, the last bullet should be ignored because it incorrectly states that you could use 9 and 7. Using 7 bits would not produce a result greater than the required 200.

Change:

"Therefore, for the problem above, the value of x must be at least 5, and the value of y must be at least 7. Further, x+y must be 16. You could choose to use:

   7 bits for subnetting and 9 bits for hosts per subnet, or    8 bits for subnetting and 8 bits for hosts per subnet, or    9 bits for subnetting and 7 bits for hosts per subnet." To:
