16. 168 170 237 24 could be written This indicates that the netmask is 24 ones followed by eight zeroes Subnet Addressing You can see that even with a Class C address there are a large number of hosts per net work It would be a very inefficient use of the amount of IP addresses to supply every LAN with so many IP addresses A smaller office LANs does not have that many devices A more efficient technique is known as subnet addressing Subnet addressing allows us to split one IP network address into smaller multiple physi cal networks known as subnetworks Some of the node numbers are used as a subnet number instead A Class B address gives us 16 bits of node numbers translating to 64 000 nodes Most organizations do not use 64 000 nodes so there are free bits that can be reassigned Subnet addressing makes use of those bits that are free A Class B address can be effectively translated into multiple Class C addresses For example the IP address of 172 16 97 235 would be interpreted as IP network address 172 16 subnet number 97 and node number 235 In addition to extending the number of addresses available subnet addressing provides other benefits Subnet addressing allows a network manager to construct an address scheme for the network by using different subnets for other geographical locations in the network or for other depart ments in the organization 115 Freecom MusicPal Although the preceding example uses the entire third octe
17. Class Eaddresses are for experimental purposes For each unique value in the network por tion of the address the range base address the host address contains only zeroes is known as the network address and is not usually assigned to a host The top address of the range host address contains only ones is unassigned It is instead used as the broadcast address for sending a data packet to all hosts with the same network address simultaneously 114 Appendix Netmask The partition scheme that separates the different address classes is used to identify a netmask attached to the IP address A netmask is a 32 bit quantity that in logical com bination using an AND operator with an IP address forms the network address The netmasks for Class A B and C are for instance 255 0 0 0 255 255 0 0 and 255 255 255 0 The address 192 168 170 237 is a Class C IP address its network portion is 192 168 170 Combining it with the Class C netmask using an AND operator as shown in this example leaves only the network portion of the address 11000000 10101000 10101010 11101101 192 168 170 237 combined with 11111111 11111111 11111111 00000000 255 255 255 0 resulting in 11000000 10101000 10101010 00000000 192 168 170 0 An alternative to dotted decimal representation is to express the netmask as the quantity of ones from left to right This number is added to the IP address after a slash as n In this example the address 192
