The next two questions are part of the same scenario. You will use VLSM to design an addressing scheme for a client who has the 185.33.64.0 /24 address block. (a) The largest host requirement is for LAN A, which requires 100 hosts. What would be the subnet address and prefix length for this subnet?
24 is the prefix length and 185.33.64.0 is the network ip address.
Now we need to create a subnet containing 100 hosts using variable length subnet masking(VLSM).
Actually length of the ip address is 32. Prefix length given was 24. It means 8 bits are remaining. We can use these eight bits for subnetting.
Choose 1bit from those eight bits from left most.
