help me how to subnet class A, B & C

Hiya,

while doing VLSM, no need to worry about the IP Class range. The class type is only belongs to the IP range which you are using...as you mentioned on earlier post and its not depends to subnetmask..... Wink


The subnet mask is puerly used to define the number hosts, subet(networks), Network and Broadcast address for each subnets...for the given IP (what ever the class the IP belongs to)....

thank you thats what I was saying

Class B Subnets
255.255.128.0 / 17
255.255.192.0 / 18
255.255.224.0 / 19
255.255.240.0 / 20
255.255.248.0 / 21
255.255.252.0 / 22
255.255.254.0 / 23
255.255.255.0 / 24

IP Address
128 - 191
128.0.0.0 - 191.255.255.255

255.128.0.0 is actually the first subnet though for a class A

for class B 128.0.0.0 to 191.255.255.255

255.255.128.0 is the first subnet

for class C 192.0.0.0 to 223.255.255.255

255.255.255.128 being the first subnet there

Unless i am missing something the point, I have no idea where you are getting this from, unless you can show the resource you are getting this from then we are going around in circles. Basically everything i have read states;

Class A - Subnet = 255.0.0.0
Class B - Subnet = 255.255.0.0
Class C - Subnet = 255.255.255.0

I'm not talking about TCP/IP I'm just talking about subnets and subnetting calculations

Er, no, TCP/IP is a book which explains everything to do with TCP/IP, since we are talking about IP addressing, it covers subnetting......

Class C Subnets
255.255.255.128 / 25
255.255.255.192 / 26
255.255.255.224 / 27
255.255.255.240 / 28
255.255.255.248 / 29
255.255.255.252 / 30

THIS IS MY CHART AS I HAVE IT TAKEN FROM NOTES A TEACHER GAVE

BUT as previously stated CLASS DOESN'T MATTER due to VLSM This is my chart made by a teacher and I'm sharing it with you. I've listed all three A,B,and C on the previous pages.

Class A - Subnet = 255.0.0.0
Class B - Subnet = 255.255.0.0
Class C - Subnet = 255.255.255.0

this is an unfinished though and the Part of the IP address need to be applied I.E 128, 192, 224, and so on. So that is where I get

I dunno now you've got me confused Look at my charts

Er, no, TCP/IP is a book which explains everything to do with TCP/IP, since we are talking about IP addressing, it covers subnetting......
