To calculate Network address you should assign "0" " Zero" for Host portion
Ex. 192.168.157.6/24
Since the above IP is Class C last Octet will be the host part
This will be shown in binary as
11000000.10101000.10011101.00000110
.00000000
Then Network address will be 192.168.157.0
To find the broadcast IP you need to add "1" Once for host part
If we take Same IP
11000000.10101000.10011101.00000110
.11111111
The Broadcast IP will be 192.168.157.255
10.150.100.9627? This isn't a valid IP address ....... BUT, assuming you meant to say 10.150.100.96/27, then the subnetwork address is 10.150.100.96, the 1st host address is 10.150.100.97, and the broadcast address is 10.150.100.127. The /27 means the 1st 27 bits are network, the remaining 5 are host addresses. The subnet address would be 255.255.255.224. If someone could double check my math, it would be appreciated, as I am a newbie too.
The network address of this ip address is 192.150.8 and 24 is host ip address
Assuming we are talking IPv4, the split between network and host is determined by the subnet mask. In binary, where there is a "1" it is network, where there is a "0" it is host. A+ pg. 870: A: 1st octect: Network; 2nd,3rd,and 4th: Host B: 1st and 2nd octects: Network; 3rd and 4th octets:Host C: 1st,2nd,3rd octects:Network; 4th octect: Host
unicast
depends on the subnet mask ie/ 255.255.255.252 which would mean 175.124.35.0,4,8,12,16etc etc are networks and 175.124.35.1 & .2 are hosts. .3 is the broadcast address for that subnet.
When you set up a sub network you decide upon the subnet mask and this determines the network address (all zeros in the subnet portion of the address) and the broadcast address (all ones in the subnet portion of the address). When you assign the host addresses in your subnet, then you use the addresses between the network address and the broadcast address.
Network or subnetwork IP address. Broadcast address on the network
A host on a network needs to broadcast an ARP request to advertise its Mac address. The networking world is very chatty in nature and when a new network host is available it immediately broadcasts its Mac address as with a ARP message. Also when a particular network host needs to send a data packet to another network host available in the same LAN whose Mac address is unknown, the first network host sends out a ARP message requesting for the destination network hosts MAC address.
The general rule in networking is that the network id cannot be all zeroes or all ones, and the host id cannot be all zeroes or all ones. The all zero address results in a reserved address meaning "this network". The all ones address is a broadcast address, and cannot be assigned to a single system.
192.168.10.31 is the broadcast address for this Subnet
253. Valid addresses would be from 10.20.50.1 to 10.20.50.254 10.20.50.0 is the network address. 10.20.50.255 is the network broadcast address. Any network with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 will support 253 hosts.
This could be a couple of things, but you are likely referring to TCP/IP protocol broadcasts. A broadcast address is when a data packet is sent to a special address to which all nodes on the network are supposed to accept and optionally respond to. While a broadcast address is defined for the entire network, this is not implemented in practice. For an IP subnet, the last address in the subnet's address space is the broadcast. For example, if my subnet is defined as 192.168.1.0/24 (very common for consumer network hardware including Wi-Fi), this defines the following: the network itself is identified as 192.168.1.0, the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 (24 binary 1s in a row), the usable host addresses are 192.168.1.1 through 192.168.1.254, and the broadcast address is 192.168.1.255.
Here are 3 facts about the network portion of an IPV4 address. 1. identical for all hosts in a broadcast domain 2. varies in length 3. is used to forward packets
network: 172.16.2.128 Broadcast: 172.16.2.255 usable host range: 172.16.2.129 thru .254
No, changing the prefix of a subnet will affect the number of hosts that can be assigned. A smaller prefix will result in fewer hosts, while a larger prefix will allow for more hosts to be assigned.
The maximum number of host bits that can be borrowed from a class A address is 22 (technically you could borrow 23 but the resulting network would be useless). A class A address uses 8 bits for its network address and 24 bits for its host addresses. Class A uses a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0 You can only borrow 22 bits (instead of 24) because a valid network requires 4 addresses: A network address, two host addresses and a broadcast address. These networks would result in 30 bits used for the network address and 2 bits used for the host addresses. These networks use a subnet mask of 255.255.255.252
The network part of an IP address indicates the network to which the host belongs. The host bits or host part of an IP address points to the actual device that has an IP address on the network. It can be a computer, printer, router or any device with an IP address that has the same network part.
