Addressing Example
A network manager, planning for the configuration of a network of 60 
hosts, desires to implement subnets to create logical divisions between 
different groups of workstations and devices. The Internet Assigned 
Numbers Authority has supplied the company with a Class C Network 
Address; 222. 131. 99. XXX.
Examining Table 1-6 for subnet masking forms, the Network Manager 
decides that, due to the extent of subnetting to be implemented, the last 
option in the subnet table is not realistic, as that configuration offers only 
two subnets. Likewise, the first three options are unacceptable, as they 
would create an excessively large number of subnets with relatively few 
individual hosts per subnetwork. This leaves decimal masks of 248 (31 
subnets, 6 hosts each), 240 (15 subnets, 14 hosts each), and 224 (6 
subnets, 30 hosts each). Any of these decimal masks would support the 
number of Host IDs to be configured. Looking ahead, the Network 
Manager realizes that adding Host IDs to a full network can involve a 
total reconfiguration of subnet strategies, and opts for the decimal mask 
240, which provides room for the configuration of 210 Host IDs.
After taking time to fully plan and delineate the required subnets, assign 
them to departments within the company, plan out the initial Host IDs for 
existing devices within those subnets and configure the router(s) which 
will interconnect the various subnets, the Network Manager determines 
where on the network the network management station will reside. The IP 
Host ID of this network management station will be essential when 
configuring the network devices for sending SNMP Traps.
On any subnet, one Host ID must be reserved for a connection to the 
router(s) which will interconnect multiple subnets.
