	Subnetwork - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Subnet masks are usually represented in the same representation used for addresses themselves; in IPv4, dotted quad notation (four numbers from zero to 255 separated by periods, e.g.
		Subnetting is the process of allocating bits from the host portion as a network portion.
		The problem with this subnet is that the unicast address for the subnet is the same as the unicast address for the entire class A network.

		Subnet mask - 32-bit address mask used in IP to indicate the bits of an IP address that are being used for the subnet address.
		Subnet masks tell devices which part of an address is the network number including the subnet and which part is the host.
		Subnet masks also use 32-bit long IP addresses that always use all binary 1s in the network and subnetwork portions of the address and all binary 0s in the host portion of the address.

	Cisco - Subnet Zero and the All-Ones Subnet
		Subnetting has guidelines regarding the use of the first and the last subnets, known as subnet zero and the all-ones subnet, respectively.
		Using subnet zero for addressing was discouraged because of the confusion inherent in having a network and a subnet with indistinguishable addresses.
		Use of the all-ones subnet for addressing has been discouraged in the past because of the confusion inherent in having a network and a subnet with identical broadcast addresses.

	More Restrictive Subnet Masks
		When a bitwise logical AND operation is performed between the subnet mask and IP address, the result defines the Subnet Address (also called the Network Address or Network Number).
		Node addresses of all "0"s and all "1"s are reserved for specifying the local network (when a host does not know it's network address) and all hosts on the network (broadcast address), respectively.
		You can calculate the Subnet Address by performing a bitwise logical AND operation between the IP address and the subnet mask, then setting all the host bits to 0s.

		The subnet from which the request originates can be determined by: o Using the subnet address of the giaddr field in the DHCP packet header, or if the giaddr field is zero; o Using the subnet address of the local interface on which the DHCP server received the packet.
		The subnet selection option instructs the DHCP server to allocate the address on the requested subnet as opposed to the normal operation of allocating the address on the subnet from which the DHCP request originated.
		The value for the subnet address is determined by taking any IPv4 address on the subnet and ANDing that address with the subnet mask (i.e.: the network and subnet bits are left alone and the remaining (address) bits are set to zero).

	IP Subnet Calculations
		Which bits of the address are in the network field and which bits are in the host field is determined by the subnet mask.
		To subnet, the default subnet mask for a network is extended to cover bits of the address that would otherwise be part of the host field.
		Given the IP address of a host and the subnet address for the network, you need to be able to calculate which subnet that host is on.

	IP address
		An IP Address is a unique number, akin to a telephone number, used by machines (usually computers) to refer to each other when sending information through the Internet.
		The IP address of users browsing the world wide web are used to enable communications with to the server of the web site.
		Depending on one's Internet connection the IP address can be the same every time one connects, a static IP address, or different per session (but the first part being the same each time): a dynamic IP address.

		IP addresses are split between the network part and the host part.
		The standard allocation is IP addresses does not allow for a logical arrangement of networks within the organisation, thus subnetworks can be created by borrowing bits for the host part of the address.
		Unfortunately the all zero address is used to identify the network, and the all 1's address is the broadcast address, thus there can only be 30 useable subnets, from 00001b to 11110b.

	Cisco - IP Addressing and Subnetting for New Users
		In a Class A address, the first octet is the network portion, so the Class A example in Figure 1 has a major network address of 10.
		In a Class B address, the first two octets are the network portion, so the Class B example in Figure 1 has a major network address of 172.16.
		Looking at the address bits that have a corresponding mask bit set to one, and setting all the other address bits to zero (this is equivalent to performing a logical "AND" between the mask and address), shows you to which subnet this address belongs.

	subnet - a Whatis.com definition - see also: subnet mask
		Typically, a subnet may represent all the machines at one geographic location, in one building, or on the same local area network (LAN).
		The 32-bit IP address (we have a separate definition of it with IP address) is often depicted as a dot address (also called dotted quad notation) - that is, four groups (or quads) of decimal numbers separated by periods.
		If you have the job of creating subnets for an organization (an activity called subnetting) and specifying subnet masks, your job may be simple or complicated depending on the size and complexity of your organization and other factors.

		By keeping these nine bits the same for all addresses in a given area, route summarization is easily achieved at area border routers, as illustrated by the scheme used in Table A-1.
		With a subnet mask of 255.255.255.240, the a and b bits together represent the subnet portion of the address, whereas the c and d bits together provide four-bit host identifiers.
		When a subnet mask of 255.255.255.252 (a typical subnet mask for point-to-point serial lines), the a, b, and c bits together represent the subnet portion of the address, and the d bits provide two-bit host identifiers.

	IP Addressing, subnet mask, wildcard mask
		RFC 950 therefore rules out '11' and '00' as useable subnets, we are therefore left with only two subnet addresses instead of the 3 we require.
		The IP address given to this company was 146.162.0.0 (which is a Class B address), and the decision was made to use the whole of octet 3 for the subnet addresses leaving octet 4 for the host addresses.
		The subnet mask for each subnet (Whether LAN or WAN) was consequently 255.255.255.0, it is important to design the addressing scheme such that the subnet mask is common to all LAN's/WAN's throughout the network unless a routing protocol such as OSPF is to be used.

	Subnet Addressing
		Subnetting allows you to increase the number of networks available to you without applying for another IP address number.
		The IP address is composed of 32 bits, which consist of two parts: the most significant bits (MSBs) identify a particular network and the remaining bits specify a host on that network.
		Subnetting can help overcome distance limitations of physical networks by dividing up a physical network into individually addressed networks so they can be connected logically with routers.

	What is subnet mask? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Subnetting enables the network administrator to further divide the host part of the address into two or more subnets.
		In this case, a part of the host address is reserved to identify the particular subnet.
		It's called a mask because it can be used to identify the subnet to which an IP address belongs by performing a bitwise AND operation on the mask and the IP address.

		Class C addresses are the most numerous, but their limitation is that each can identify only 254 unique hosts.
		A subnet mask (or number) is used to determine the number of bits used for the subnet and host portions of the address.
		For instance, a subnet of 7 (all one bits) is reserved for an all subnets-directed broadcast (a broadcast sent to all subnets of the specified subnetted network) when the host bits are all one.

		The value for the subnet address is determined by taking any IP address on the subnet and ANDing that address with the subnet mask (i.e., the network and subnet bits are left alone and the remaining (address) bits are set to zero).
		This determines a single subnet, and when allocating an IP address, all of the other related subnets on the same link will also be considered in the same way as currently specified for the processing of the giaddr in [RFC 2131, Section 4.3.1, first group of bullets, bullet 4].
		When the DHCP server is allocating an address and this sub-option is present, then the DHCP server MUST allocate the address on either: o the subnet specified in the link-selection sub-option, or; o a subnet on the same link (also known as a network segment) as the subnet specified by the link-selection sub-option.

	Get a Clue: Calculating Subnet Masks
		The easiest way to explain a subnet mask is by looking at the IP address and subnet mask in its binary format.
		If we were to use an address with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 then the first 2 segments would make up the network address and the last two would be the host address.
		Recall that the network address is made up from all the bits that line up with the 1s in the subnet mask.

		Note that the system of IP address classes described here, while forming the basis for IP address assignment, is generally bypassed today by use of Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) addressing.
		An IP address has two parts: the identifier of a particular network on the Internet and an identifier of the particular device (which can be a server or a workstation) within that network.
		The number version of the IP address can (and usually is) represented by a name or series of names called the domain name.
