Is octet a collective noun?
The noun 'octet' is a word for a group of eight. The noun 'octet' is not a standard collective noun for a specific group, but can be used as a collective noun for any group of eight; for example, an octet of singers, an octet of swans, etc.
What is a octet in poetry?
An octet is a stanza of poetry that has eight lines.
How many bits make a word?
2 bytes=16 bits make a word
16 bits is equals to how many bytes?
2 bytes 8 bits in a byte
If a word is defined as 16 bits how many words is a 64 bit data item?
there are 1024 words in a 64-bits iterm
How many bits in an octet or byte?
An octet is 8 bits, which forms a byte.
How many bits in 4 octects?
An octet is a unit of digital information in computing that consists of eight bits. The term is often used when the term byte might be ambiguous, because there is actually no standard for the size of the byte (although octet and byte are often used interchangeably). Since an octet has 8 bits, 4 octets would have 32 bits (4x8=32).
What is the term for every eight bits in an IP Address?
octet
What is octet in networking?
An octect is a byte with exactly 8 bits.
What is the term for each grouping of 8 bits in an IP address?
Octet A grouping of 8 bits, often used to identify the four 8-bit decimal numbers that compose an IP address (as in "first octet," "second octet," and so forth)
What is another way to refer to 1 byte or 8 bits?
octet
How many octets are in a Class C IP address?
24 bits (8 bits per octet, so 3) are used for the network portion of a class C IP address
What is the difference between octets and bytes?
A byte is a set of adjacent bits (usually 8, but not necessarily) while an octet is a set of exactly 8 bits
What is a standard term for a data item composed of eight bits?
A unit of data size that consist of 8 bits is a byte (or octet in European countries).
In classful addressing the class of the address can be found by shifting the copy of the address bits to the right?
Shifting to the right won't accomplish anything. To find the class of the address, look at the first octet in the address. You can either look for the range of addresses for a class, or look at the first 3 bits in the first octet: First octetAddress Class0-127Class A128-191Class B192-223Class C224-239Class D240-255Class E 0nnnnnnn. First octet class A range (first bit is 0) 10nnnnnn. First octet class B range (first bits are 10) 110nnnnn. First octet class C range (first bits are 110) It is easiest just to look at the range.
What is a byte and how many bits does it contain?
A byte is the basic unit of information in a computer. It is usually the smallest addressable object in memory. The size of a byte is a function of the design of the computer, but nearly universally, it has come to mean 8 bits. (Octet is a more precise definition of 8 bits of memory, in case there is any dichotomy.)
How many bits in byte?
historically, the byte was whatever the computer said it was. There have been computers that use bytes anywhere from 5 to 36 bits long. Today however, almost all computers use 8 bit bytes. When there is absolutely no room for misunderstanding, the term octet is used instead, which always means 8 bits.
