The subnet mask itself is an IP Address so it is also 32 bits
32 bits in a IPv4 address
a TcP IPv4 ip address has 32 bits.
32
IPv4 => 32 bits => 4 bytes
we need to borrow 7 bits to subnet 172.16.100.0 to have at least 500 hosts and the subnet mask will be 255.255.254.0
There are 16 bits available; it is up to you how many of those bits you reserve for the subnet, and how many for the individual hosts within each subnet.

The subnet mask. The subnet mask consists of a certain number of ones, followed by a certain number of zeroes (in binary). The ones tell you how many bits in an IP address make up the network part; the zeroes are for the host.The subnet mask.

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)
