Question is too vague,
do you mean, How do you find a subnet on a windows machine?
How do you find a subnet on a Linux machine?
How do you find a subnet owned by the service provider??
If you are running Windows - click Start > Run...> type 'command' (without quotes) > click the OK button > at the cursor in the black box that appears, type 'ipconfig' (without quotes) > press the enter button.
You will see something like this:

open a terminal window and type:

Calculating a subnet mask depends on whether you are using the default, classful mask or a true subnet mask to divide a network into smaller pieces.
The defaults are on octet boundaries (every 8 bits):
255.0.0.0 class A network
255.255.0.0 class B network
255.255.255.0 class C network
Any other type of subnet mask with 4 octets (iPV4) can use combinations of those with any octet value from 0 - 255. No number may be larger than 255.
Calculating other subnet masks would be based on how many subnets you want in the network. You could have values such as:
255.192.0.0
255.255.248.0.0
255.255.255.252
The first octet must at least be 255. The other octets may change, based on whether it is a classful default network or it is being subnetted.
hi how to find network configuration if remote machine having window operating system
go toyour home computer then go to start. run .then type cmd .then type in on the blackish screen ipconfig and press enter and it will tell you your ip address subnet mask and gateway
Yes. You need to have an IP (either static or dynamic) You must have a subnet mask that corresponds to the IP address; and a gateway IP address that is on the same subnet.
Subnet mask is a mask used to determine what subnet an IP address belongs to. Default gateway is the gateway in a network that a computer will use to access another network if a gateway is not specified for use.
The gateway address can only be assigned after the subnet mask is declared. You really can't define both from just an IP address of a single node. The network may or may not be subnetted.
What is the default subnet mask for an IP address of 198.133.219.4?
The no. of IP's that can be assigned to single computer depends on the subnet mask. if the subnet mask is of A class then the IP's assigned can be 16777216. If the subnet mask is of B class then the no. of IP's that can be assigned is 65536. And if the subnet mask is of C class then the IP's assigned can be 254.
Get Subnet Mask, IP Address, Gateway etc.For windows users go to START button in bottom left corner then to RUN then type COMMAND in the box - the mini DOS prompt will open in a separate window. Then type ipconfig/all and all the information you desire will be listed - ip address, default gateway, subnet mask etc.......
The correct term is subnet mask instead of subnet mass. A subnet mask separates an IP address into the host address and the network address. It is a 32-bit number that can mask an IP address.
what is the subnet mask for this hst IP prefix format ? Host IP Address: 183.91.104.16
Because each IP defines certain subnet mask.
If you are getting this IP from your ISP you must ask them. It most likely is 255.255.255.248 This IP seems to be a Default Gateway, your address would be 74.176.12.142 with the above mentioned subnet mask. Now if this is for your homewaork or exam, then this answer is not correct and you should have paid attention in class to Subnets.
default gateway
255.255.255.0
