Hello all! To cut a long story short, how can you find out the IP address ranges for any given subnet mask?
Example from book:
Class B address of 172.20.0.0.
5 bits borrowed from 3rd octect, which allows for 32 subnets (2 to the power of how many bits borrowed). Then it states 'on such a network, the first range of address for the first subnet is 172.20.0.1-172.20.7.254.
My questions:
1) What would the 2nd range be?
2) How do you work out the ranges for any given subnetted address?
Thanks!
