254 - a class C subnet uses 8 bits for the hosts and 0 and 255 are reserved.
A class C network has 256 IP addresses. Of these, two (the first and the last) are reserved for special purposes, so you can assign 254 IP addresses to hosts.

254
There are 256 possibilities, but...
0 is reserved for the network address,
and 255 is reserved for the broadcast address.
If you do not subnet a class C network, the maximum number of hosts per network is 254.

class A supports maximum number of hosts. | | | | | <------network------><--------------------------------hosts------------------------------------>
The maximum number of hosts per class B network is 65536.

Each network supports a maximum of 16,777,214 (2 24 -2) hosts per network
The number of possible IP address decreases as one steps down from Class A to Class C IP addresses because the availability of usable hosts. There is a decrease in the number of usable hosts from Class A to Class C IP addresses.

A class ip address offer the most number of host
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.
Class A
62
62 hosts.
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
