Here's the question bank on all the computer networks topics.
You are working with a network that is 172.16.0.0 and would like to support 600 hosts per subnet. What subnet mask should you use?
Concept:In class B, the first two octets(16 bits) represent network address and out of these 16 bits first two bits are fixed(10) to specify that its class B and the remaining 14 bits represent 214 networks, and each network has 216 - 2 host.Explanation:IPv4 address: 32 bitsNetwork Id = 16 bitsSince there are 600 Host ID? Host ID = ?log2 600?= 10IP address = Network ID + Subnet ID + Host ID32 = 16 + Subnet ID + 10? Subnet ID = 6In subnet mask, all host id bits are 0 and network id, subnet id are 1sNetwork ID + Subnet ID = 6 + 16 = 22 bitssubnet mask: 11111111. 11111111. 11111100.00000000subnet mask: 255. 255.252.0
