The document discusses how IP addresses are allocated using subnet masks. Condition 1 shows how 8 subnets are created from one Class A network address, with each subnet using half of the available host addresses and wasting one. Condition 2 shows how the last subnet uses the full range of available host addresses, so only 7 subnets are needed.
