192.168.1.0/24
Divide the 192.168.1.0/24 network into four subnets
that can accommodate the number of hosts required.
 QUIZ
The first subnet (Subnet 1) is 192.168.1.0/26. What are the remaining
subnets?
HINT: Find the broadcast address of Subnet 1. The next address is the
network address of Subnet 2. Repeat the process for Subnets 3 and 4.
