Introduction to Subnetting
Subnetting a network means
to use the subnet mask to divide
the network and break a large
network up into smaller, more
efficient and manageable segments,
or subnets.
Subnet addresses include the network portion, plus a subnet
field and a host field.
To create a subnet address, a network administrator borrows
bits from the host field and designates them as the subnet field

Number of subnets = 2n = 23 =8
with n is number of bits that are borrowed.
Number of hosts per subnet = 2m 2 = 28-3 - 2 = 30
with m is number of remaining bits.
