With CIDR and VLSM, the subnet mask can no longer be implied. The routing protocol must include information about the subnet mask, when a router sends updates to other routers. This makes some older routing protocols unsuitable for such cases; for example, RIP version 1 is unsuitable, but RIP version 2 was changed so that it included the subnet mask.

What would the value of the last octet of the subnet mask be if the CIDR notation for an address is 192.168.1.1627?
This isn't a valid CIDR address, so I assume it is: 192.168.1.162/7 That would yield a subnet mask of 255.255.255.254
How is a netwrok address of 192.168.6.0 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 written in CIDR?
This is 192.168.6.0/24.
How Given a Class C network 200.1.1.0 We want 5 subnets each with 30 hosts on it. How many bits to borrow How many bits to leave What is the subnet mask ( in dot notation and in CIDR notation)?
Given a Class C network: 200.1.1.0 We want 5 subnets, each with 30 hosts on it. How many bits to borrow ? How many bits to leave? What is the subnet mask? ( in dot notation and in CIDR notation)
What field was added to the rip message by rfc 1723 to add support for vlsm and cidr?
Subnet mask
What field was added to the rip message header by RFC 1723 to add support for vlsm and cidr?
Subnet mask
What is a full-class C in CIDR notation?
Under CIDR, the subnet mask notation is reduced to a simplified shorthand. Instead of spelling out the bits of the subnet mask, it is simply listed as the number,the network address would be written simply as: 192.60.128.0/22which indicates starting address of the network, and number of 1s bits (22) in the network portion of the address. If you look at the subnet mask in binary (11111111.11111111.11111100.00000000), you can easily see how this notation works.The use of a CIDR notated address is the same as for a Classful address. Classful addresses can easily be written in CIDR notation (Class A = /8, Class B = /16, and Class C = /24)
What is the formula for figuring out the CIDR of a subnet mask?
availble ip address for 240.248.252.0000
Does ipv6 require a subnet mask?
It does not require a subnet mask.
What is the alternate notation for a Class C subnet?
/24 in CIDR 255.255.255.0 in netmask.
What class has subnet mask 225.225.225.0?
If this is a default subnet mask, then it would be a class C subnet mask. If you are subnetting a network and this is not the default subnet mask, then it could be either a class A or class B.
What is supernetting explain with example?
IntroductionBecause subnet masks can get very confusing, the creators of this wonderful network technology also made available a few things to make life somewhat easier.The following chart is really a summary of what we've seen so far. It gives you a good idea of the networks we can combine and the result we'd see.The Supernetting/CIDRchartThere are four columns available in our chart:The CIDR Block, the Supernet Mask, Number of Class C Networks and the Number of Hostscolumn.Class CCIDR BlockSupernet MaskNumber of Class C NetworksNumber of Hosts/14255.252.0.01024262144/15255.254.0.0512131072/16255.255.0.025665536/17255.255.128.012832768/18255.255.192.06416384/19255.255.224.0328192/20255.255.240.0164096/21255.255.248.082048/22255.255.252.041024/23255.255.254.02512/24255.255.255.01254/25255.255.255.1281/2126/26255.255.255.1921/462/27255.255.255.2241/832/28255.255.255.2401/1616/29255.255.255.2481/328/30255.255.255.2521/644I am going to explain the meaning of each column, although you probably already know most of them.The CIDR BlockThe CIDR Block simply represents the number of bits used for the subnet mask. For example,/14 means 14 bits assigned to the subnet mask, it is a lot easier telling someone you have a14 bit subnet mask rather than a subnet mask of 255.252.0.0 :)Note: In the above paragraph, I called the 14 bits as a subnet mask, when in fact it's a supernet mask, but because when you configure any network device, the field you will need to enter the value is usually named as the 'subnet mask', I decided to name it 'subnet mask' aswell, in order to avoid confusion.I'd like you to pay particular attention to the CIDR Block /24, and /25 to /30. These blocks are highlighted in yellow and blue because I want them to grab your attention :)When we use a CIDR Block of 24 (24 bit subnet mask) we are not Supernetting ! This is a default subnet mask for a Class C network. With CIDR Blocks /25 to /30 we are actuallySubnetting and not Supernetting !Now you might wonder why I have them in the chart. The fact is that those particular CIDR Blocks are valid, regardless of whether applying them to a network means we are Subnettingand not Supernetting. If you have dealt with any ISPs and IP Address assignments, chances are you would have been given your IP Addresses in CIDR format.A good example is if you wanted a permanent connection to your ISP and only required 2 IP Addresses, one for your router and one for your Firewall, you would be assigned one /30 CIDRBlock. With such a subnet mask you will have 4 IP Addresses, from which 2 will be reserved (one for the Network address and one for the Broadcast address) and you're left with 2 that you can assign to your hosts (router and firewall).The Supernet MaskBasically, this is your Subnet mask. When you configure the devices that will be attached to the specified network, this is the value you will enter as a Subnet mask. It's also the decimal value the CIDR Block specifies. For example, a /24 CIDR block means a 24 bit Subnet mask, which in its turn translates to 255.255.255.0 :) Simple stuff !Number of Class C NetworksThis number shows us how many Class C Networks are combined by using a specific Supernet mask or, if you like, CIDR Block. For example, the /24 CIDR Block, 255.255.255.0 Supernet mask is 1 Class C Network, whereas a /20 CIDR Block, 255.255.240.0 Supernet mask is 16 Class C networks.Number Of HostsThis value represents the number of hosts per Supernet. For example, when we use a /20CIDR Block, which means a Subnet (or Supernet) mask of 255.255.240.0, we can have up to4096 hosts. Pretty straightforward stuff.There is one thing you must be careful of though ! The value 4096 does not represent the valid, usable IP Addresses. If you wanted to find out how many of these IP Addresses you can actually use, in other words, assign to hosts, then you simply take 2 IP Addresses from that number (the first and last IP Address), so you're left with 4094 IP Addresses to play with :)Why take 2 away ? You shouldn't be asking questions like that if you have read the IP and Subnetting sections but I'll tell you anyway :) One is reserved for the Network Address and one for the Broadcast Address of that network !SummaryThat completes the explanation of the Supernetting/CIDR chart. You will see that Supernetting and Subnetting have quite a few things in common, and this is simply because they work on the same principle.Again, if you have the whole topic, or certain sections hard to understand, you should give yourself a small break, and then come back for another round :)
Defference bw a default subnet mask and a custom subnet mask?
The default subnet mask has a standard size. The custom subnet mask allows you to make subnets that are smaller or larger than the default.
