- What is a subnet mask, and the difference between a subnet mask of 255 . . .
Most probably, you are after a subnet mask of 255 255 255 0 A subnet mask refers to the practice of subnetting, which is, from my understanding of it, a way of dividing one network into smaller logical networks
- What is the diference between IP subnet mask 255. 255. 254 . 0 . . . or 255 . . .
255 255 255 0 allows for a total of 254 IP addresses to be used 1 is for the subnet itself and another for the broadcast Best example of this is the network 192 168 1 0
- networking - Subnet mask of 255. 255. 255. 255 - Super User
1 255 255 255 255 is a broadcast address same as 0 0 0 0 if you want two endpoints the subnet mask would be 255 255 255 254 (however this still won't do what you are asking What you are asking for is VLANs or PVLANs (virtual or private lans) This would require hardware capable of layer2 switching and VLAN support at least
- networking - Static IP address of 255. 255. 255. 255 - Super User
1 255 255 255 255 represents the local broadcast address, which is only propagated within the network This broadcast data cannot cross routers by default That is, it is a restricted broadcast address For the local host, this address refers to all hosts in the network segment (same broadcast domain)
- Change subnet mask from 255. 255. 255. 0 to 255. 255. 255. 255
1 If your device lets you enter 255 255 255 255 as the subnet mask it won't be able to communicate with other devices on the network
- Why cant IP addresses start with 0 or 255? - Super User
The IP address 0 0 0 0 is used as a wildcard to bind to all addresses The IP address 255 255 255 255 is used to indicate a local broadcast Because this decision was part of the classful network design that predates CIDR, to reserve these specific IP addresses alone, special rules would have had to have been created for the 8's that contained them Since some 8's were going to remain
- What do the different formats for network addresses indicate?
The 255 xxx xxx xxx are reserved for subnet numbers, and the three ranges you specified are reserved for private networks, most of the rest of the possible ranges are purchased by or assigned to organizations or corporations for their own networks
- How to find how many hosts are on subnet mask: 255. 255. 255. 252?
3 You are correct to say the subnet mask of Class A should be 255 0 0 0 but in a classless network involving subnetting 255 255 255 252 is mostly used between the ISP and your home network to provide only 2 usable host Of which one host is the ISP and the second is your home network public address
