tlug: ip subnetting question..

["Scott M. Stone" <sstone@example.com>]

OK, now I always thought that a netmask of 255.255.255.192 gave you 4
subnets of 62 hosts each.  My CCNA book however *insists* that this mask
gives you *two* subnets of 62 hosts each.

WTF??

There's more than one case in which the book makes the assumption, too, so
I know it's not a misprint.
