Question is too vague,
do you mean, How do you find a subnet on a windows machine?
How do you find a subnet on a Linux machine?
How do you find a subnet owned by the service provider??
Yes. You need to have an IP (either static or dynamic) You must have a subnet mask that corresponds to the IP address; and a gateway IP address that is on the same subnet.
Subnet mask is a mask used to determine what subnet an IP address belongs to. Default gateway is the gateway in a network that a computer will use to access another network if a gateway is not specified for use.
The gateway address can only be assigned after the subnet mask is declared. You really can't define both from just an IP address of a single node. The network may or may not be subnetted.
What is the default subnet mask for an IP address of 198.133.219.4?
Of the four items—IP address, DNS server, subnet mask, and default gateway—only the IP address is specific to your computer. The DNS server translates domain names into IP addresses, the subnet mask defines the network and host portion of the IP address, and the default gateway is the device that routes traffic from your local network to the Internet.
The no. of IP's that can be assigned to single computer depends on the subnet mask. if the subnet mask is of A class then the IP's assigned can be 16777216. If the subnet mask is of B class then the no. of IP's that can be assigned is 65536. And if the subnet mask is of C class then the IP's assigned can be 254.
Get Subnet Mask, IP Address, Gateway etc.For windows users go to START button in bottom left corner then to RUN then type COMMAND in the box - the mini DOS prompt will open in a separate window. Then type ipconfig/all and all the information you desire will be listed - ip address, default gateway, subnet mask etc.......
what is the subnet mask for this hst IP prefix format ? Host IP Address: 183.91.104.16
Because each IP defines certain subnet mask.
If you are getting this IP from your ISP you must ask them. It most likely is 255.255.255.248 This IP seems to be a Default Gateway, your address would be 74.176.12.142 with the above mentioned subnet mask. Now if this is for your homewaork or exam, then this answer is not correct and you should have paid attention in class to Subnets.
255.255.255.0
