Question 1:
Distribute the range of IP address equally among 7 companies. One of the IP address from
the range is 100.2.30.40/11. Which company owns the given IP address? Write down all
subnets with their network and broadcast addresses
ANSWER:
100.2.30.40/11 has range from 100.2.30.41 - 100.2.30.255 with total 214 addresses
Now if I would like to divide the above subnet into 2 with 106 addresses each, then It would be
The 1st address is network address and last is broadcast address in any subnet. so including them
would be total IP addresses but those are not usable IP addresses, so now it will be 108-2 = 106
100.2.30.148/12 - broadcast address and 2nd one being 100.2.30.149/12 with range 100.2.30.149
- 100.2.30.254
Like wise you can divide one large subnet into multiple small subnets. You should know the rule
of octet and subnetting.
Subnets can be divided into groups(2,4,8,16….etc) and each group can have
2,4,8,16,32,64,128,255,1204….etc
Question 2:

among last three departments. One of the IP address from the block is 10.1.2.3 /8. Which
department the given IP address belongs to and how many IP addresses will be left for
future use
