Ch1 Basic Subnetting

The document provides guidance on subnetting methodology including identifying address class and subnet mask, calculating network values, and checking calculations. It then provides examples of subnetting questions and answers related to identifying subnet ranges and network addresses. Finally, it includes an extra exercise on calculating subnet requirements given the number of workstations and subnets needed.

Recommended Methodology

• Identifying Address Class


• Identifying Subnet Mask
• Calculate Custom Subnet Mask
• Calculate Network address
• Calculate Lowest Host Address
• Calculate Highest Host Address
• Calculate Broadcast Address
• Determining Host Range
• Checking Calculations
Checking your Calculations
1. 1st host address always ends with an odd
number.
2. Last host address always ends with an even
number.
3. Last network always equals value of bits
borrowed.
4. Host value times subnet value always equals
256.
NB: Address Classes and Subnet Masks

Class Address Class Default Subnet Masks


Class A 1 – 127 255.0.0.0 /8
Class B 128 – 191 255.255.0.0 /16
Class C 192 - 223 255.255.255.0 /24

Extra Exercise
• A. Company ABC has 100 workstations in their head office and
the IT manager would like to assign a subnetwork address for
each department. He wants to create 5 subnets using the
192.168.1.0/24 block and assign the first subnetwork to their
servers and the rest for their 100 workstations. How will we
compute the subnetwork requirement?
• Given:
Number of workstations = 100
Network address = 192.168.1.0/24
Subnets required = 5
*Note: Subnetwork 1 will be allotted for the servers
