What are the last 64 bits of a IPv6 IP address called how are these bits used?
Interface ID
What is the address of the last byte of RAM in the Pep8 memory?
2 bytes or 16 bits
How do you know how many bits represent the network portion and the host portion?
When we express an IPv4 network address, we add a prefix length to the network address. The prefix length is the number of bits in the address that gives us the network portion. For example, in 172.16.4.0 /24, the /24 is the prefix length - it tells us that the first 24 bits are the network address. This leaves the remaining 8 bits, the last octet, as the host portion.
Formula to get logical to physical address in paging?
(frame no * page size) + offset value = physical add where frame value is the value present in the corresponding page number offset value is the last n bits of the logical address page no is the first m-n bits of logical address 2^m is the logical address 2^n is the page size
How millions of computers are addressed with just 32 bits?
Internet addresses of computers are currently covered by Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4), which has a 32 bit address space.Imagine you had only 1 bit long addresses. Then you could have only 2 different addresses - address 0 and address 1. But if you had 2 bit long addresses, you get 4 possible addresses - 00, 01, 10, 11. If you had 3 bit long addresses, you would have 8 possible addresses - 000, 001, 010, 011, 100, 101, 110, 111. Every time you add a new address bit, you double the number of addresses possible.1 bit = 2 addresses2 bits = 4 addresses3 bits = 8 addresses4 bits = 16 addresses5 bits = 32 addresses...Since each address bit doubles the number of possible addresses, a 32 bit address space covers 232 possible addresses, or over 4,000,000,000. And this is only for unique addresses that the whole world can use; many computers are in private networks (inside corporations, for example) and do not need an external IPv4 address. They talk to the outside world through a few routers which DO have IPv4 addresses. So a company might have tens of thousands of computers, but only a few dozen IPv4 addresses that are assigned to the routers they have connected to the internet.Even so, all 4,000,000,000 of the IPv4 addresses have finally been allocated and will be used up over the next several months. This means that the internet will need to migrate to a newer addressing version, IPv6. IPv6 uses 128 bit addressing. 2128 is about 3.4x1038 addresses. That's 3,400,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 addresses. They should last us a while.
What is the last bit transmitted over a serial connection called?
The last bit is called the stop bit. The entire sequence of bits sent over a serial connection can be found here: http://cnx.org/content/m12293/latest/
The two parts of MAC addresses?
Yes - the first bits specify the network, the remaining bits, a host within a network. There is no fixed number of bits for the network; this may vary.Yes - the first bits specify the network, the remaining bits, a host within a network.

What is the name of the President's Last Speech before leaving office?
It could be called his "Farewell Address" . "Valedictory (Address) " would be a fancier description.
What is the range of usable IP addresses for 10.150.100.96 27?
That leaves us 5 bits for the host (32 - 27 = 5); the size of the network is 25 = 32 IP addresses, that is, addresses 10.150.100.96 - 10.150.100.127. The first and last address are not usable (can't be assigned to hosts), which leaves us with addresses 10.150.100.97 - 10.150.100.126.That leaves us 5 bits for the host (32 - 27 = 5); the size of the network is 25 = 32 IP addresses, that is, addresses 10.150.100.96 - 10.150.100.127.

How to use 172.16.0.0 to create 32 subnets?
172.16.0.0 is really a B Class address with 16 network bits and 16 host bits, i.e. Network Address 172.16.0.0 has 255.5255.0.0 as Subnet mask in Classful Addressing. To create 32 (25) subnets we will use first five bits for Network part and will leave 3 bits as Host bits in third octet. Now Addressing will be:Network Address: 172.16.0.0\21 or 172.16.0.0 Subnet Mask: 255.255.248.0First two networks will be : (1) 172.16.0.0-172.16.7.255\21, (2) 172.16.8.0-172.16.15.255\21 and last two networks will be (1) 172.16.240.0-172.16.247.255\21, (2) 172.16.248.0-172.16.255.255\21.(Note to use Zero subnet - remember to use IP SUBNET ZERO command.)
How do you know which bits are host bit in a subnet mask?
Since a subnet mask is used to separate the network id from the host id, any 1 bits indicate the network portion and the 0 bits indicate host portion. As an example, in the subnet mask: 255.255.0.0 This indicates the first two octets are used for the network, and the last two octets (ipV4) are used for host portion of an address.
How can the subnet mask for a class C address be represented?
255.255.255.0 - in decimal representation 11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000 - binary representation (3 bytes with all the bits equal to 1, the last byte with all the bits equal to 0) /24 - binary short representation (the number of bits equal to 1)
