For example, on page 3:

"IPv4 defines a 32-bit address which means that there are
only 232 (4,294,967,296) IPv4 addresses available."

232 what?

It should read:

        2^32    (to the 32rd power)

On page 11:

"The first step in the planning process is to take the maximum number of
subnets required and round up to the nearest power of two. For example,
if an organization needs nine subnets, 23 (or 8) will not provide
enough subnet addressing space, so the network administrator will
need to round up to 24 (or 16)."

23 or 8 what? Bits?

23 = CIDR notation, .. i.e. 32 bits - 23 bits for the network = 8 for the subnet
