  Here is a PDF version of the Binary Logic Sheet I used in class during Meeting 14. It covers all those basics.

  Here is a plain text version of a series of exchanges with previous students regarding non-classic subnet masks. This is not a review of all the binary logic we discussed in class (see above link for that). Instead, it is a compliation of questions that have come out of that discussion and been useful to previous classes.

  Here is a page full of links to images of various network devices and related items. These are images from Luddy Hall (IDF, MDF and Data Center), the Lindley Hall Computer Science Machine Room (retired), and from the Air Force Academy . Please take note of the image size before you begin viewing the images.
