C-6
Netopia ISDN Router Reference Guide
As you can see, subnet masks that allocate one, seven, or eight
bits to subnets are useless for a Class C network. This is because
binar y host addresses or subnet addresses that are composed of
all zeros or all ones are reser ved for broadcasting (see
“Broadcasts” on page C-16
). Class A or Class B networks, on the
other hand, would still have many host numbers available if the
network manager chose a subnet mask that allocated seven or
eight bits to subnets.
1.
Decide on a subnet strategy
Your 25 IP hosts are arranged as follows: 10 on the third floor, eight
on the four th floor, and seven on the fifth floor. Since you will need
at least ten host addresses per subnet, the preceding table
indicates that you must choose a subnet mask that allocates four or
fewer bits to the subnet address. You decide to use a subnet mask
