  • What is the correct subnet mask for the network?

    can create 16 subnets, each subnet has at most (16-2) hosts; mask 255.255.255.224 can create 8 subnets, each subnet has at most (32-2) hosts; mask 255.255.255.248 can create 32 subnets, each subnet has at most (8-2) hosts; why need to -2?

  • Few Class C subnetting questions

    Configuration C: 1. 30 subnets. 2. 6 hosts per subnet. 3.

  • Subnetting examples (class A, B and C)

    Similar restriction is also applied to subnets by older standards, however recent standards do allow use of all 0 bits and all 1 bits subnets. Hence, number of subnets = (2 ^ number_of_subnet_bits) , as per recent standards.

  • Networking: Subnetting explained with example

    ., under 16.0 there are 1024 subnets, 16.1 there are 1024 subnets) And under each 16.0.x there are 4 subnets (i.e, under 16.0.0 there are 4 subnets, 16.0.1 there are 4 subnets, etc) To find the Network address, start, end addresses & broadcast

  • Forming Subnets for Four Departments

    The solution forms subnets for four departments.

  • Subnetting and Supernetting

    Thus, we further divide this network into subnets to limit the scope of these broadcast packets.

  • purpose of subnetting

    If the subnets were not created, each computer would try to establish an independent connection with the internet, which would be a wasteful utilization of the fixed number of network connection numbers given to the organization.

  • Which of B, C, D can A reach

    Unfortunately, host A has been misconfigured and doesn't use subnets. Which of B, C, D can A reach? A can only reach B. Since subnetting is not used, then A cannot reach R1 and R2 since RB does not know the network address of A's packet.

  • TCP/IP Plan

    You need to create seven subnets on the network. A router on one of the subnets will connect the network to the Internet. All computers on the network will need access to the Internet. What is the correct subnet mask for the network?
