Subnetting (Cont.)o The subnetworks still appear as a single
network to the rest of the Interneto For example, a packet destined for host
141.14.192.2 still reaches router R1o However, R1 knows the network 141.14 is
physically divided into subnetworksn It deliver the packet to subnetwork 141.14.192.0

Finding the Subnet Addresso Given an IP address, we can find the subnet
address in the same way as we found the network addressn Apply the mask to the address
o Two ways: straight or short-cut
PDF created with FinePrint pdfFactory Pro trial version www.pdffactory.com
Straight Methodo Use binary notation for both the address and
the mask
o Then apply the AND operation to find the subnet address

the addresso If the byte in the mask is 0, replace the byte in
the address with 0o If the byte in the mask is neither 255 nor 0,
we write the mask and the address in binary and apply the AND operation

Number of Addresses in a Blocko There is only one condition on the number of
addresses in a blockn It must be a power of 2 (2, 4, 8, . . .)

o A small business may be given 16 addresses. o A large organization may be given 1024
addresses

Beginning Addresseso The beginning address must be evenly divisible
by the number of addresses. n Ex: if a block contains 4 addresses, the beginning
address must be divisible by 4. o If the block has less than 256 addresses, we
need to check only the rightmost byte. o If it has less than 65,536 addresses, we need to
check only the two rightmost bytes, and so on.

SolutionSolution
The address 205.16.37.32 is eligible because 32 is divisible by 16. The address 17.17.33.80 is eligible because 80 is divisible by 16.

SolutionSolutionTo be divisible by 1024, the rightmost byte of an address should be 0 and the second rightmost byte must be divisible by 4. Only the address 17.17.32.0 meets this condition.
