CCNA INTRO Exam Certification Guide - Part 4 TCP/IP - Chapter 12 ppsx

C H A P T E R 12 IP Addressing and Subnetting In Chapter 5, “Fundamentals of IP,” you learned about the basic concepts and terminology relating to IP addressing. These concepts were introduced early in the book because your understanding of many basic networking concepts depends on a base knowledge of IP addressing. In this chapter, you will learn about the concepts and mathematics that let you analyze IP addresses and subnets. IP addressing is the only major topic that happens to get coverage on both of the INTRO and ICND exams. To answer questions on either CCNA exam, you will need to discover the structure of IP addresses, list the addresses in the same subnet, list the other subnets of that same network, identify the numbers of hosts in a subnet, and identify other information about addresses and subnets. This chapter describes the math and processes used to answer these questions. This chapter also happens to cover a few topics related IP address scalability issues related to Internet growth. “Do I Know This Already?” Quiz The purpose of the “Do I Know This Already?” quiz is to help you decide whether you really need to read the entire chapter. If you already intend to read the entire chapter, you do not necessarily need to answer these questions now. The 14-question quiz, derived from the major sections in the “Foundation Topics” portion of the chapter, helps you determine how to spend your limited study time. Table 12-1 outlines the major topics discussed in this chapter and the “Do I Know This Already?” quiz questions that correspond to those topics.

If you do not know the answer to a question or are only partially sure of the answer, you should mark this question wrong for purposes of the self-assessment. Giving yourself credit for an answer that you correctly guess skews your self-assessment results and might provide you with a false sense of security. 0945_01f.book Page 314 Wednesday, July 2, 2003 3:53 PM “Do I Know This Already?” Quiz 315 4.

Following that, the text takes a thorough look at several types of IP addressing questions and the math you can use to find the answers. IP Addressing Review Chapter 5 explained the concepts behind IP addressing; Class A, B, and C networks; and subnetting. Before looking at the math behind IP addressing, a quick review will be helpful. Many different Class A, B, and C networks exist. Table 12-2 summarizes the possible network numbers, the total number of each type, and the number of hosts in each Class A, B, and C network. *The “Valid Network Numbers” row shows actual network numbers. There are several reserved cases. For example, networks 0.0.0.0 (originally defined for use as a broadcast address) and 127.0.0.0 (still available for use as the loopback address) are reserved. Networks 128.0.0.0, 191.255.0.0, 192.0.0.0, and 223.255.255.0 also are reserved. Without subnetting, a different IP network must be used for each physical network. For example, Figure 12-1 shows three example IP addresses, each from a different network. One address is in a Class A network, one is in a Class B network, and one is in a Class C network. Table 12-2 List of All Possible Valid Network Numbers* Class A Class B Class C First Octet Range 1 to 126 128 to 191 192 to 223 Valid Network Numbers 1.0.0.0 to 126.0.0.0 128.1.0.0 to 191.254.0.0 192.0.1.0 to 223.255.254.0 Number of Networks of This Class 2 7 – 2 2 14 – 2 2 21 – 2 Number of Hosts per Network 2 24 – 2 2 16 – 2 2 8 – 2 Size of Network Part of Address (bytes) 1 2 3 Size of Host Part of Address (bytes) 3 2 1 0945_01f.book Page 319 Wednesday, July 2, 2003 3:53 PM 320 Chapter 12: IP Addressing and Subnetting Figure 12-1 Example Class A, B, and C IP Addresses and Their Formats By definition, an IP address that begins with 8 in the first octet is in a Class A network, so the network part of the address is the first byte, or first octet. An address that begins with 130 is in a Class B network; by definition, Class B addresses have a 2-byte network part, as shown. Finally, any address that begins with 199 is in a Class C network, which has a 3-byte network part. Also by definition, a Class A address has a 1-byte host part, Class B has a 2- byte host part, and Class C has a 1-byte host part. Humans simply can remember the numbers in Table 12-2 and the concepts in Figure 12-1 and then quickly determine the network and host part of an IP address. Computers, however, use a mask to define the size of the network and host parts of an address. The logic behind the mask results in the same conventions of Class A, B, and C networks that you already know, but the computer can deal with it better as a binary math problem. The mask is a 32-bit binary number, usually written in dotted-decimal format. The purpose of the mask is to define the structure of an IP address. In short, the mask defines the size of the host parts of an IP address, representing the host part of the IP address with binary 0s in the mask. Class A mask has its last 24 bits as binary 0, which means that the last three octets of the mask are 0s. Table 12-3 summarizes the default masks and reflects the sizes of the two parts of an IP address. Table 12-3 Class A, B, and C Networks—Network and Host Parts and Default Masks Class of Address Size of Network Part of Address, in Bits Size of Host Part of Address, in Bits Default Mask for Each Class of Network A 8 24 255.0.0.0 B 16 16 255.255.0.0 C 24 8 255.255.255.0 0945_01f.book Page 320 Wednesday, July 2, 2003 3:53 PM IP Addressing Review 321 IP Subnetting IP subnetting creates vastly larger numbers of smaller groups of IP addresses, compared with simply using Class A, B, and C conventions. The Class A, B, and C rules still exist—but now a single Class A, B, or C network can be subdivided into many smaller groups. Subnetting treats a subdivision of a single Class A, B, or C network as if it were a network itself. By doing so, a single Class A, B, or C network can be subdivided into many nonoverlapping subnets. Figures 12-2 and 12-3 show the basic differences between a network that does not use subnetting and one that does use subneting. First, look at Figure 12-2, which uses six different IP networks. Figure 12-2 Network Topology Using Six IP Networks The design in Figure 12-2 requires six groups, each of which is a Class B network. The four LANs each use a single Class B network. In other words, the LANs attached to Routers A, B, C, and D are each a separate network. Additionally, the two serial interfaces composing 150.1.0.0 150.2.0.0 150.4.0.0 150.3.0.0 D C Hannah AB Frame Relay 150.5.0.0 Ray Fay Kris Wendell Vinnie Jessie 150.6.0.0 0945_01f.book Page 321 Wednesday, July 2, 2003 3:53 PM 322 Chapter 12: IP Addressing and Subnetting the point-to-point serial link between Routers C and D use the same network because these two interfaces are not separated by a router. Finally, the three router interfaces composing the Frame Relay network with Routers A, B, and C are not separated by an IP router and would compose the sixth network. As in Figure 12-2, the design in Figure 12-3 requires six groups. Unlike Figure 12-2, Figure 12-3 uses six subnets, each of which is a subnet of a single Class B network. Figure 12-3 Same Network Topology, Using One IP Network, with Six Subnets This design subnets Class B network 150.150.0.0. The IP network designer has chosen a mask of 255.255.255.0, the last octet of which implies 8 host bits. Because it is a Class B network, there are 16 network bits. Therefore, there are 8 subnet bits, which happen to be bits 17 through 24—in other words, the third octet. CAUTION Other Frame Relay IP addressing options would require one or two more IP network numbers for this physical network. 150.150.1.0 150.150.2.0 150.150.2.1 150.150.2.2 150.150.6.0 150.150.4.0 150.150.3.0 Hannah Frame Relay 150.150.5.0 Ray Fay Kris 150.150.4.2 Wendell Vinnie Jessie D C AB 0945_01f.book Page 322 Wednesday, July 2, 2003 3:53 PM [...]... last Tables 1 2-2 0 through 1 2-2 4 summarize the answers for the five examples used in this section Table 1 2-2 0 Subnet Chart—130 .4. 102.1/255.255.255.0 Octet 2 3 4 Address 130 4 102 1 Mask 255 255 255 0 Subnet number 130 4 102 0 First address 130 4 102 1 Broadcast 130 4 102 255 Last address 130 4 102 2 54 1 2 3 4 Address 130 4 102 1 Mask 255 255 252 0 Subnet number 130 4 100 0 First address 130 4 100 1 Broadcast... the process will be covered after Tables 1 2-3 2 and 1 2-3 3, which list two familiar examples, with the first two steps completed Table 1 2-3 2 Subnet List Chart—130 .4. 0.0/ 24 Octet 2 3 4 Network number 130 4 0 0 Mask 255 255 255 0 Subnet zero Table 1 2-3 3 1 130 4 0 0 Subnet List Chart—130 .4. 0.0/22 Octet 1 2 3 4 Network number 130 4 0 0 Mask 255 255 252 0 Subnet zero 130 4 0 0 The last step in this process, Step...
