Number of bits in the host part
Subnet mask
Number of usable PCs in one network
Example IP address
Example network address
Example broadcast address

Question 2. A network is designed so that 18 bits represent the network part.
(a) How many bits are in the host part?
(b) Write the subnet mask of this network
(c) Write an example IP address for this network
(d) Write the network address and broadcast address relevant to this example

Question 3. You are supposed to create 4 subnets for a Class C network
(a) How many bits you need to assign four subnets?
(b) Then how many bits are there in the network part?
(c) If the network address is 192.168. 200. 0 write down the addresses of four subnets
(d) Write four example IP addresses for these four subnets

Question 4. You are supposed to create 15 subnets for a Class B network
(e) How many bits you need to assign 15 subnets?
(f) Then how many bits are there in the network part?
(g) If the network address is 152.231. 0. 0, write down the addresses of first five subnets
(h) Write four example IP addresses for these five subnets

Question 5. What is the benefit of using subnets?
