1 00:00:00,260 --> 00:00:01,060 Okay. 2 00:00:01,070 --> 00:00:07,040 I know there are a lot of terms and conditions, so let's just break it down with a real world scenario. 3 00:00:07,850 --> 00:00:14,750 Although the standard for A and B class networks specify eight and 16 bit masks respectively. 4 00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:23,360 It's common to assign non-standard masks for subnets, resulting in much more limited address spaces. 5 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:33,740 For example, using ten point Xinyi dot zero slash 24 results in 256 host company subnets. 6 00:00:33,740 --> 00:00:34,310 Right. 7 00:00:34,700 --> 00:00:38,510 So this is done for scalability and of course, security. 8 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:45,000 Okay, so we're the system administrators in Company X and ready to build. 9 00:00:45,510 --> 00:00:52,740 We have decided to use 192.168. x dot x as the private IP address space for our company. 10 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,610 If we use the natural mask. 11 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:59,000 255.255.0.0. 12 00:00:59,150 --> 00:01:03,440 That means we use the first 16 bits for network ID. 13 00:01:04,780 --> 00:01:06,940 And we'll have a single network. 14 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:13,270 So in this case, we can address 65,536 devices in this network. 15 00:01:14,180 --> 00:01:17,840 Of course, the first IP and the last IP were not allowed to use. 16 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:23,270 So the number of IP addresses actually 65,536 minus two. 17 00:01:23,300 --> 00:01:29,510 You do the math, but in practice, for ease of use, it's pretty much used as the power of two. 18 00:01:30,450 --> 00:01:40,830 So you can use an IP address in this network from 192.168.0. 1 to 1 92.168.255.254. 19 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:48,250 But we need to have different networks, one for the managers, one for the developers, one for the 20 00:01:48,250 --> 00:01:49,460 servers, etcetera. 21 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:56,260 So for the sake of our use and our sanity, let's use the next eight bits for subnets. 22 00:01:57,190 --> 00:02:02,740 In this case, we have a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. 23 00:02:03,490 --> 00:02:08,199 Eight bits for subnet and 24 bits for the network ID in total. 24 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:12,610 Eight bits left for dressing the devices under the subnets. 25 00:02:12,850 --> 00:02:14,110 So as a result. 26 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,600 We can create 256 subnets. 27 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,920 And address 256 devices for each one. 28 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:29,470 Now we have 256 address ranges for 256 Subnetworks. 29 00:02:30,470 --> 00:02:34,430 So the table here shows a few examples of our potential subnetworks. 30 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:40,770 The red colored blocks are added to the network ID as subnet identifiers. 31 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,940 The rest of the eight bits are used as the host IDs. 32 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,250 In the four block decimal notation. 33 00:02:48,490 --> 00:02:55,800 The third block identifies a subnetwork and the last block identifies the host. 34 00:02:55,870 --> 00:02:59,350 So breaking it down, It's much simpler now, isn't it? 35 00:02:59,740 --> 00:03:00,280 Excellent. 36 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:01,060 Let's move on.
