Subnet Mask
To discern the network part from the host part of an -> IP address, a device performs an
AND operation on the IP address and the network mask. The network classes A, B, and C
each have a subnet mask that demasks the relevant bits: 255.0.0.0 for Class A,
255.255.0.0 for Class B and 255.255.255.0 for Class C. In a Class C network, for instance,
254 IP addresses are available.
