How many hosts can possible in a class A ip range?
class A ip has 16777216 host but valid hosts are only 16777214.(2^24-2)So answer is 16777214 hosts
If you have the following Network ID 131.112.0.0 You need at least 500 hosts per network How many networks can you create What subnet mask will you use?
If you need to divide it up into the maximum number of subnets containing at least 500 hosts each, you should use a /23 subnet mask. This will provide you with 128 networks of 510 hosts each. If you used a /24 mask, you would be limited to 254 hosts. Similarly, a /22 mask would be wasteful, allowing you 1022 hosts.
How are ''all hosts'' interpreted in internet?
<network-number>.255.255 e.g. 127.0.255.255
How many hosts can each class b network have?
16 384 networks are available in Class B network.
What file can be replaced when a network has a DNS server?
Hosts
In which class support maximum number of host?
class A supports maximum number of hosts. | | | | | <------network------><--------------------------------hosts------------------------------------>
What is the maximum number of network in class a?
Each network supports a maximum of 16,777,214 (2 24 -2) hosts per network
If you subdivide your class B network into 254 subnets what is the maximum number of hosts you can assign to any single subnet?
254
No of host in class A?
The number of hosts in a classfull class A network with no subnetting is 16,777,214
What is the maximum number of hosts bits that can be borrowed for sub-netting from a Class B address?
14
Maximum number of hosts class c Address?
254 - a class C subnet uses 8 bits for the hosts and 0 and 255 are reserved.
How many hosts can a A class network accommodate?
16 000 000
What is the maximum number of usable hosts that can be treated if six hosts bits are available?
62
If you borrow 10 host bits from a Class B network address how many usable hosts are left?
62 hosts.
What are the advantages of Class A network over Class B and Class C?
A class A network has more IP addresses - you can connect more hosts on it.A class C network has 256 IP addresses (of which you can use 254), a class B network about 65,000, a class A network about 17 million.More specifically, a Class A network can have 16,777,214 usable host addresses per network whereas a Class B network can have 65,6534 usable host addresses per network.Another advantage is the ridiculous amounts of subnetting you can do. For example, in a Class C network, you can't borrow the same number of bits as you can with a Class A because you only have the last octet to work with for the host portion. With a Class A network, the last three octets are the entire host portion, so you have 24 bits to work with for subnetting (technically 23 since you can't subnet down through all available bits and have no bits left for hosts =p). Due to the amount of subnets you can have and the 16+ million hosts you can potentially have on the same network, Class A networks are reserved for super big applications (ISPs and gigantic companies).
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 is Class C IP address?
Class A, B and C Based on the split of the 32 bits, an IP address is either Class A, B or C, the most common of which is Class C. More than two million Class C addresses are assigned, quite often in large blocks to network access providers for use by their customers. The fewest are Class A networks, which are reserved for government agencies and huge companies. Although people identify the class by the first number in the IP address (see table below), a computer identifies class by the first three bits of the IP address (A=0; B=10; C=110). This class system has also been greatly expanded, eliminating the huge disparity in the number of hosts that each class can accommodate (see http://www.answers.com/topic/cider).

The host bits are further divided between subnets and hosts. See subnet mask.
