Please answer this question for me -- very confused??????
I have a class C IP addy: 196.168.10 and want to subnet it!
If I use a 255.255.255.192 subnet that gives me 4 networks (0,64,128,192) and 62 host addys per network.
Network 1: 196.168.10.0
196.168.10.1 --> 196.168.10.62
Broadcast 196.168.10.63
Network 2: 196.168.10.64
196.168.10.65 --> 196.168.10.126
Broadcast 196.169.10.127
Network 3: 196.168.10.128
196.168.10.129 --> 196.168.10.190
Broadcast 196.168.10.191
Network 4: 196.168.10.192
196.168.10.193 --> 196.168.10.254
Broadcast 196.168.10.255
Why can I only use networks 2 and 3? It seems network 4 should certainly be able to be used and network 1 seems vaild except for the possible problem with 196.168.10.0 being the first network.
I have had this explained before -- all 0's or all 1's is not exceptable, but You never end up with all 1's or 0's in networks 1 or 4.
The network portion of the first network is:
1100100.10101000.00001010.00 -- this is not all 1's or 0's???
The network portion of network 4 is:
1100100.10101000.00001010.11 -- this is not all 1's or 0's either??????
What am I doing wrong here! I am obviously not think about this correctly, but I cannot figure out where my falicy lies????????
Thank you all in advance for your help
