Subnetting and Subnet Masks
Subnetting divides a network address into sub-network addresses to accommodate
more than one physical network on a logical network.
For example:
A Class B company has 100 LANs (Local Area Networks) with 100 to 200 nodes on
each LAN. To classify the nodes by its LANs on one main network, this company
segments the network address into 100 sub-network addresses.
network address is 150.1.x.x, the address can be segmented further from 150.1.1.x
through 150.1.100.x
A subnet mask is a 32-bit value that distinguishes the network ID from the host ID for
different sub-networks on the same logical network.
masks consist of four octets in dotted decimal notation.
to route and filter the transmission of IP packets among your sub-networks.
value "255" is assigned to octets that belong to the network ID, and the value "0" is
assigned to octets that belong to the host ID.
For the example above, if you want all the devices on the sub-networks to receive
each other's IP packets, set the subnet mask to 255.255.0.0.
devices on a single sub-network only to receive IP packets from other devices on its
own sub-network, set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0 for the devices on the
sub-network.
Subnet Mask Routing and Filtering
0.0.0.0 IP packets are transmitted to all devices.
255.0.0.0 IP packets are only transmitted to devices that are IP that's first
octet matches the sender's IP address's first octet.
255.255.0.0 IP packets are only transmitted to devices that are IP that's first two
octets match the sender's IP address's first two octets.
255.255.255.0 IP packets are only transmitted to devices that are IP that's first
three octets match the sender's IP address's first three octets.
