You have the following Network ID: 131.112.0.0. You need at
least 500 hosts per network. How many networks can you
create? What subnet mask will you use

Answer Posted / james

Simplest answer:

2^9 -2 will give you 510 host.

9 is # of bits

so, it will be 255.255.254.0

Subnet mask go by 128, 192, 224, 240, 248, 252, 254, 255
254 - 252 (pervious subnet mask) = 2

so network is increment of 2 starting from 0

We know that 2*128 -1 = 255 (max allow network) hint: .255

No.of subnets Range of ip

1. 131.112.0.0 to 131.112.1.255
2. 131.112.2.0 to 131.112.3.255
3. 131.112.4.0 to 131.112.5.255
4.
