Term of the Day: Class C Network

[Keefe]

Class C Network
In a 32-bit IP address, the number of bits used to identify the network and the host vary according to the network class of the address. In a Class C network, the first 3 bits, or the high-order bits, are always "110." The next 21 bits are used to define the Class C network, and the final eight bits are used to identify the host. The IP address is represented in dotted decimal notation of four 8-bit fields, or octets, that have been converted from binary to decimal numbers.

thanks alot  :-/ I just had a cisco acadmey flashback. I ducked under the computer table and screamed "make the binary digits go away"!

Mmm, good ol' Cisco Acadmy.  I'm in that right now, heh.  I have a program on my palm to convert binary to decimal, as well as reversed.  But then again I didn't really have that much trouble doing it for like, the one test we had to do it on.

actually I didn't finish it. I took it in high school. I only finished semester 1 and 2. The teacher never let us use any kinda of program or even calculators to calculate ip's, subnets, or anything having to do with binary/hex/octal. that's why I had a flashback :-/

hey guys, does anyone still know how to subnet ip addresses? U know, which is the broadcast, network number, clients.
