Let's Say We've Been Allocated Class B 135.15.0.0/16

The document discusses subnetting large networks using Class B and Class A IP addresses. It provides examples of how to calculate the network address, broadcast address, number of subnets, and number of hosts per subnet when given an IP address range and subnet mask. In the first example, a Class B network of 135.15.0.0/16 is subnetted into /29 subnets, allowing 8192 subnets with 6 hosts each. In the second example, a Class A network of 60.0.0.0/8 subnetted with a /28 mask allows 1,048,576 subnets with 14 hosts per subnet.

If we subnet this into /29 subnets, we have 3 bits for host addressing.
This allows 6 hosts per network (23 - 2) , the same as if we used /29
with a Class C address.
Because we were allocated a Class B /16 address range, we have 13
bits for network addresses
This allows 8192 subnets (213)

For the IP address 135.15.10.138/29, what is the network address,


broadcast address, and range of valid IP addresses?
The line is after the 8, so the network address goes up in multiples of 8
Network address = 135.15.10.136
Next network address = 135.15.10.144
Broadcast address = 135.15.10.143
Valid host addresses = 135.15.10.137 to 142

For the IP address 135.15.10.138/29, what is the network address, broadcast


address, and range of valid IP addresses?
The subnet mask is 255.255.255.248
Subtract the value in the subnetted octet from 256: 256 – 248 = 8
The network address goes up in multiples of 8
Network address = 135.15.10.136
Next network address = 135.15.10.144
Broadcast address = 135.15.10.143

255.255.255.240 subnet mask is /28


14 hosts per network (24 - 2)
Because we were allocated a Class A /8 address range, we have 20 bits
for network addresses
