Subnetting Calculation

 

Private addressing scheme: 172.31.0.0 /16

1 IT Centre and 10 Faculties. 11 subnet is needed.

To have 11 subnets, we must find the nearest number which is not lesser than 11. In this case, 16 is the most suitable.

Position no.

IP Address Class – B

Default Subnet Mask – 255.255.0.0

Number of subnets – 11 ~ 16 = 2s = 16

                                              

Number of bits borrowed = 2s = 16

                                                  2s = 24

                                           s = 4


172.31.0.0 /20

New subnet mask – 255.255.240.0

Quantity of host per subnet – 2H – 2 = 212 – 2 = 4094 host
