CIS441 IP Addressing
CIS441 IP Addressing
Understanding IP Addresses
Class A, B, and C networks have default masks, also known as natural masks, as shown
here:
Class A: 255.0.0.0
Class B: 255.255.0.0
Class C: 255.255.255.0
8.20.15.1 = 00001000.00010100.00001111.00000001
255.0.0.0 = 11111111.00000000.00000000.00000000
-----------------------------------
net id | host id
EXAMPLE:
192.168.3.44/24
255.255.255.0
192.168.3.0 Network IP
1-254 hosts
192.168.3.255 broadcasting IP
EXAMPLE:
(Q)- If you use a Network 170.10.10.0 (/16), how many hosts does this allow for ?
172.16 .0.0
255.255.0.0
------------
172.16. 0. 0 ------------- (Network address IP)
172.16. 0. 1
172.16. 0. 2

This Network allows you to have (216) IPs --- This Network allows you to have (216-2) hosts
