IP Addressing and Subnetting

IP Addressing and Subnetting
IP Addressing
 An IP address is a 32-bit sequence of 1s and 0s.
 To make the IP address easier to use, the address is usually
written as four decimal numbers separated by periods
(dotted decimal format).

IPV4 and IPV6

Decimal and Binary Conversion

IP V4 Addressing

Two Parts: Network and Host
 To define the network and host portions of an address, a
devices use a separate 32-bit pattern called a subnet mask
 The subnet mask does not actually contain the network or
host portion of an IPv4 address, it just says where to look
for network Part in a given IPv4 address

Bit-wise AND Operation
1 AND 1 = 1 1 AND 0 = 0 0 AND 1 = 0 0 AND 0 = 0

Reserved IP Addresses
1. Certain host addresses are reserved and cannot be assigned to devices
on a network.
2. An IP address that has binary 0s in all host bit positions is reserved for
the network address.
3. An IP address that has binary 1s in all host bit positions is reserved for
the broadcast address.

Network Address

Broadcast Address

Practice Problem
 You have the IP address 176.89.21.201
 Find the followings:
 i) the subnet mask,
 ii) network address
 iii) broadcast address
 iv) first host address and last host address of given IP.
 v) Determine the no. of usable host

Public and Private IP Addresses
 No two machines that connect to a public network can have the same IP
address because public IP addresses are global and standardized.
 Assigned by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA).
 Private networks that are not connected to the Internet may use any host
addresses, as long as each host within the private network is unique.
 Connecting a network using private addresses to the Internet requires
translation of the private addresses to public addresses using Network
Address Translation (NAT).

Connection between Private and Public IP Address

Public and Private IP Addresses (contd.)
 Private IP addresses can be intermixed with public IP addresses. This
will conserve the number of addresses used for internal connections.

Public Vs Private IP Addressess

Introduction to Subnetting
 To create a subnet address, a network administrator
borrows bits from the host field and designates them
as the subnet field.
IP Address

Reasons for Subnetting
Large networks need to be segmented into smaller sub-
networks, creating smaller groups of devices and services
in order to:
 Control traffic by containing broadcast traffic within subnetwork
 Reduce overall network traffic and improve network performance
Subnetting - process of segmenting a network into multiple
smaller network spaces called subnetworks or Subnets.
Communication Between Subnets

 A router is necessary for devices on different networks and subnets to
communicate.
 Each router interface must have an IPv4 host address that belongs to
the network or subnet that the router interface is connected to.
 Devices on a network and subnet use the router interface attached to
their LAN as their default gateway.
Practice Problem
 You have the IP address 176.89.21.201, this network is
subnetted by 9 bits.
 Find the followings:
 i) the subnet mask, network address, broadcast address,
first host address and last host address of given IP.
 ii) Determine the no. of subnet and no. of usable host per
subnet.
 iii) Determine the available IP range of subnet number 126
 iv) To which subnet and host number the following IP
belong to: 176.89.201.101

Subnets in Use
Subnet 0
Network 192.168.1.0-127/25
Subnet 1
Network 192.168.1.128-255/25

Subnetting based on Host Requirements
There are two considerations when planning subnets:

 Number of Subnets required
 Number of Host addresses required
Formula to determine number of useable hosts
2^n-2
•2^n (where n is the number of host bits remaining) is used to
calculate the number of hosts
•-2 Subnetwork ID and broadcast address cannot be used on each
subnet

Magic Formulas
Number of Usable Subnets Number of Usable
Hosts/Subnet
2n 2h-n – 2
20 = 1
21 = 2 28-0- 2 = 256 - 2 = 254
22 = 4 28-1- 2 = 128 - 2 = 126
23 = 8 28-2- 2 = 64 - 2 = 62
28-3- 2 = 32 - 2 = 30
n = # borrowed bits
h = # bits available in host address

Example: Creating 8 Subnets
 Borrowing 3 bits to Create 8 Subnets. 23 = 8 subnets

Example: Creating 8 Subnets ( contd. )
