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 Maximum number of IP Addressse that can be assigned to hosts on a local subnet that has 255.255.255.224?

32 host per 8 subnet.


Why is the address 172.31.255.255 with a sub net mask of 255.255.255.0 invalid as a host ID?

because that is the last number of the subnet. the last number in a subnet is used as the broadcast domain. the first number is also not usable. an example would be: id 192.168.20.XX subnet 0f 255.255.255.128 192.168.20.0 and 192.168.20.127 may not be used and 192.168.20.128 starts the next subnet making 192.168.20.128 and 192.168.20.255 not usable


What enables an system to determine which part of an ip address represents the host and which part represents the network?

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 class C address with a default subnet mask How many possible subnets and usable hosts if 4 bits were borrowed?

that gives you 16 subnets with 14 usable IPs for hosts that is because one is for subnet and one for broadcas in that subnet for example: 192.168.1.0/28 - subnet number 192.168.1.15 -broadcast number usable IPs for hosts - IPs between them that is 14


What class has subnet mask 255.255.255.0?

The address you gave is not an IP address; it has the appearance of a subnet mask. It could be a class A or class B subnet mask.


What is the maximum number of bits that can be borrowed to create a subnet for a Class C network?

You can borrow 6 bits. Which would create a 255.255.255.252 subnet mask, but this subnet only contains 2 usable IP addresses. 7 bits would be 255.255.255.254, but that subnet is too small to have any use in the real world.

What are necessary procedure in calculating subnet mask or simply subneting show an example forr calculation?

To calculate a subnet mask, first determine the number of subnets needed and the number of hosts per subnet. Use the formula (2^n \geq \text{number of subnets}) for subnetting and (2^h - 2 \geq \text{number of hosts}) for host calculation, where (n) is the number of bits borrowed for subnets and (h) is the number of bits left for hosts. For example, if you start with a Class C address like 192.168.1.0 and want 4 subnets, you would borrow 2 bits (since (2^2 = 4)), resulting in a subnet mask of 255.255.255.192 (or /26), which allows for 62 hosts per subnet.
