How big are the network and host ID fields for a Class A address?

A class A address is one of the IPv4 class-full networks.
There are 3 of these class-full networks in IPv4; class (A, B, and C).
The entire IPv4 address range is 32 bits long. The address range is broken up into 4 x (8 bits) referred to as octets, and then giving the whole 32 bit address range.
The classes are defined as follows…
Class A = reserve the first octet, or 8 bits for network addresses and leave the remaining three for host addresses. Reserving the addresses for the network is also referred to as the network mask. In other words do not assign any address in the reserved, first octet, to a host.
Class A = 11111111.00000000.00000000.00000000 also known as a /8 bits reserved for net
Class B = 11111111.11111111.00000000.00000000 also known as a /16 bits reserved for net
Class C = 11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000 also known as a /24 bits reserved for net
So the answer is; a class A network has an 8 bit field for the network, and a 24 bit field for the host

What class network is the host 164.103.155.4 on?
This address is for a class B network (128 - 191)
Which octets are used for the network address and for host address in class A class b class c?
There are4 octets in an IP address as shown below:Octet1.Octet2.Octet3.Octet4Every IP class has different allocation of network and host ID.For class A, the network and host IDs' allocation is as follows:Network.Host.Host.HostFor class B, the network and host IDs' allocation is as follows:Network.Network.Host.HostFor class C, the network and host IDs' allocation is as follows:Network.Network.Network.HostYou may go to the following link get more info on IP address classes and their IDs:www.iphow.x10hosting.com
What is the host id of this IP address of 131.107.2.200?
Since this is a class C network address, the host id is 24, the network id is 201.123.87.0
Which IP address class allows for the most network addresses and the least amount of host addresses?
A class C address.
Assuming no subnetting what are valid Class B host addresses?
A classful class B network has a network range of 128 - 191. For host addresses, anything that is legal for an IP address in the last 2 octets would be a valid host address for a class B with no subnets.
Which class of id address provide a maximum of only 254 host addresses per network id?
Class C network
What is the maximum number of bits that can be borrowed with class b?
The maximum number of host bits that can be borrowed from a class A address is 22 (technically you could borrow 23 but the resulting network would be useless). A class A address uses 8 bits for its network address and 24 bits for its host addresses. Class A uses a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0 You can only borrow 22 bits (instead of 24) because a valid network requires 4 addresses: A network address, two host addresses and a broadcast address. These networks would result in 30 bits used for the network address and 2 bits used for the host addresses. These networks use a subnet mask of 255.255.255.252
Which class ip address uses 8 bits for the network id and 24 bits for the host id?
class A
Which octets are used for the network address and for host addresses in Class A Class B Class C?
There are 4 octets in an IP address as shown below:Octet1.Octet2.Octet3.Octet4 Every IP class has different allocation of network and host ID.For class A, the network and host IDs' allocation is as follows:Network.Host.Host.HostFor class B, the network and host IDs' allocation is as follows:Network.Network.Host.HostFor class C, the network and host IDs' allocation is as follows:Network.Network.Network.HostYou may go to the following link get more info on IP address classes and their IDs:www.iphow.co.cc
A network uses a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0?
That could be a default subnet mask for a class C network.A mask used to determine what subnet an IP address belongs to. An IP address has two components, the network address and the host address. For example, consider the IP address 150.215.017.009. Assuming this is part of a Class B network, the first two numbers (150.215) represent the Class B network address, and the second two numbers (017.009) identify a particular host on this network.Subnetting enables the network administrator to further divide the host part of the address into two or more subnets. In this case, a part of the host address is reserved to identify the particular subnet.
What is the network address of the host IP address 172.32.48.128?
Depends on your subnet mask. If you are talking about a classful addressing scheme in a class B, then the network would be 172.32.0.0
What does the local host use to determine the destination network ID of a particular packet?
the address Class
