FIRST, YOU FIND IS THE MAGIC NUMBER — WHICH IS 256 MINUS THE MASK’S
INTERESTING OCTET. 256 – 252, MAGIC NUMBER OF 4.
THE MULTIPLE OF THE MAGIC NUMBER CLOSEST TO BUT NOT MORE THAN THE
ADDRESS’S INTERESTING OCTET IS THE SUBNET’S INTERESTING OCTET VALUE.
Example 1:
Host: 172.16.10.33 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.224
Is this a Class A, Class B or Class C address? Class B
Therefore how many bits make up the Network portion? 16
How many bits are in the Subnet Mask?
11111111.11111111.11111111.11100000 = 27
How many bits are left for Host addresses? 5
How many separate addresses in each subnet? 32
Which address represents the whole subnet? 172.16.10.32
Which address is used to broadcast to the subnet? 172.16.10.63
Which addresses are left in the valid host range?
Example 2:
Host: 192.168.100.25 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.252
Is this a Class A, Class B or Class C address?
Therefore how many bits make up the Network portion?
How many bits are in the Subnet Mask?
How many bits are left for Host addresses?
How many separate addresses in each subnet?
Which address represents the whole subnet?
Which address is used to broadcast to the subnet?
Which addresses are left in the valid host range?
