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.

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).

If you borrow 10 host bits from a Class B network address how many usable hosts are left?

62 hosts.


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
