IP Addressing: Subnets
The Class C network "192.168.1.0" is to be divided into 4 subnets. A Class C network has the
default netmask "255.255.255.0". Two bits are required for four different combinations in the bi-
nary system. The following table illustrates the interdependency between the bit number and
the number of networks.
So that no gaps are left in the address range, additional 1s are added from left to right to the
existing 1s of the netmask.
