IP Addressing and Subnetting Exercise

Course No./Section: Date : Rating

Name:

1. Write the default subnet Masks for the Class A, Class B and Class C IP addresses.

2. How we can distinguish Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E IP addresses
from each other. Write the range of first octet in binary and decimal for all the 5 IP
address classes
www

3. Write the default subnet Masks for the following IP addresses:

a. 100.100.225.100
b. 200.0.0.2
c. 190.47.115.0
d. 192.11.39.2
e. 101.7.80.0

4. Write down the three available ranges for assigning Private IP addresses
recommended by IANA (Internet Assigned Number Authority).

5. What do we mean by Loopback address. Write down a Loopback address and its use.

6. What is the difference between a broadcast address and Network address? Why the
all zeros and all ones addresses are usually not assigned as host IP addresses?

7. A mask is used to distinguish how many bits are there in Network ID portion and how many are in
host ID portion. We can extract the Network Address from the given IP address using
the mask. (Assume that no subnetting is done). Extract the network address from the
following IP addresses:
a. 139.65.225.4
b. 201.35.20.18
c. 190.47.115.6
d. 192.11.39.2
e. 10.7.80.0

8. A broadcast address is the one that addresses to all the hosts in any network. State
that to create a broadcast address, all the bits of network ID portion, or all the bits of host
ID portion are set to 1? Write down the broadcast addresses of the networks to which
the following IP addresses belong. (No subnetting)
a. 139.65.225.4
b. 201.35.20.18
c. 190.47.115.6
d. 192.11.39.2
e. 10.7.80.0
Note: First of all find network address of each address then find broadcast of that network.
9. In subnetting, we actually borrow some bits of Host ID to be used as Subnet ID. Each
Subnet ID is used to identify a unique subnet and each host ID is used to identify a
unique host within a subnet. If you add more bits to the subnet ID portion, then the hosts
per subnet will increase or decrease?

10. Subnet Mask or Custom mask tells us that how many bits are used for Subnet ID
portion and how many for host ID portion. Remember, that in a subnet mask, we place
1s against all network ID and subnet ID bits and 0s against all the host ID bits. Identify
how many bits are used for subnetting in the following IP address using its subnet mask:
a. IP Address: 139.65.225.4 Subnet Mask: 255.255.224.0
b. IP Address: 139.65.225.4 Subnet Mask: 255.255.248.0
c. IP Address: 201.35.20.18 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.128
d. IP Address: 201.35.20.18 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.240
e. IP Address: 190.47.115.6 Subnet Mask: 255.255.128.0
f. IP Address: 190.47.115.6 Subnet Mask: 255.255.252.0
g. IP Address: 192.11.39.2 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.192
h. IP Address: 192.11.39.2 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.224
i. IP Address: 10.7.80.0 Subnet Mask: 255.240.0.0
j. IP Address: 10.7.80.0 Subnet Mask: 255.255.128.0

11. Extract the Network Addresses of the given IP addresses in question number 10, using
the subnet masks given with them. (Remember that ANDing the IP address with the
Mask extracts the network address from the given IP address).

12. Specify a suitable Subnet Mask for the following cases: (You have to decided how
many bits should be taken as subnet ID from the host ID portion to satisfy the required
number of subnets).
a. Class A Network with 10 subnets
b. Class B Network with 120 subnets
c. Class B Network with 13 subnets
d. Class C Network with 20 subnets
e. Class A Network with 1115 subnets
f. Class A Network with 5000 subnets
g. Class B Network with 500 subnets
h. Class C Network with 21 subnets
