In a class B subnet, we know the IP address of one host and the mask as given below: IP address = 125.134.112.66 Mask = 255.255.224.0 What is the first address (Network address)?
In a class B subnet, we know the IP address of one host and the mask as given below: IP address = 125.134.112.66 Mask = 255.255.224.0 What is the first address (Network address)? Correct Answer 125.134.96.0
The correct answer is "option 1".
CONCEPT:
Network address or First address is used for network identification.
The Network address is calculated by Bitwise AND operation of corresponding binary bits of IP Address & Subnet mask.
CALCULATION:
|
IP Address |
125.134.112.66 |
01111101 |
10000110 |
01110000 |
01000010 |
|
Subnet Mask |
255.255.224.0 |
11111111 |
11111111 |
11100000 |
00000000 |
|
Network Address |
125.134.96.0 |
01111101 |
10000110 |
01100000 |
00000000 |
Hence, IP Address 125.134.96.0 is the First address.
