Appendix B IP Addresses and Subnetting WAP3205 v2 User’s Guide 130 Figure 92 Network Number and Host ID How much of the IP address is the netw ork number and how much is the host ID v aries according to the subnet mask.
Appendix B IP Add resses and Subnetting WAP3205 v2 User’s Guide 131 Subnet masks are expressed in dotted decimal nota tion just like IP addresses. The following examples show the binary and decimal notation for 8-bit, 16-bit, 24-bit and 29-bit subnet masks.
Appendix B IP Addresses and Subnetting WAP3205 v2 User’s Guide 132 Subnetting Y ou can use subnetting to divide one network into multiple sub-networks. In the following example a network administrator creates two sub-networks to isolate a group of servers from the rest of the company network for security reasons.
Appendix B IP Add resses and Subnetting WAP3205 v2 User’s Guide 133 Figure 94 Subnetting Example: After Subnetting In a 25-bit subnet the host ID has 7 bits , so each sub-network has a maximum of 2 7 – 2 or 126 possible hosts (a host ID of all zeroes is the subnet’ s address itself , all ones is the subnet’ s broadcast address).
Appendix B IP Addresses and Subnetting WAP3205 v2 User’s Guide 134 Example: Eight Subnet s Similarly , use a 27-bit mask to create eight subn ets (000, 00 1, 010, 011, 100, 101, 110 and 111). The following table shows IP address last octet values for each subnet.
Appendix B IP Add resses and Subnetting WAP3205 v2 User’s Guide 135 Subnet Planning The following table is a summary fo r subnet planni ng on a network with a 24-bit network number . The following table is a summary fo r subnet planni ng on a network with a 16-bit network number .
Appendix B IP Addresses and Subnetting WAP3205 v2 User’s Guide 136 Configuring IP Addresses Where you obtain your n etwork number depends on your particular situation. If the ISP or your network administrator assigns y ou a block of regist ered IP addresses, follow their instructions in selecting the IP addresses and the subnet mask.
Appendix B IP Add resses and Subnetting WAP3205 v2 User’s Guide 137 Conflicting Computer IP Addresses Example More than one device can not use the same I P address. In the following example computer A has a static (or fixed) IP address that is the same as the IP address that a DHCP server assigns to computer B which is a DHCP client.
