Part VIII. Designing Networks

This section covers network design in a way that you won't see on certification exams. Instead of focusing on the technical details, I'll begin by walking you through the complete process of designing a network, including example spreadsheets, and formulas to help you get it right. The next chapters cover IP address allocation, IP subnetting, Network Time Protocol (NTP), and device failures. Finally, I'll cover some topics you won't find in other technical books, including how to sell your ideas to management, and when to upgrade.
