IP Address Class C network and its gateway

0 votes

Suppose I have following network setup, in a ethernet:

  1. I manually setup start IP and end IP as following: 192.168.2.1 - 192.168.254.254

  2. Manually setup Gateway IP as: 192.168.2.1
  3. Of course, Mask length as: 16

  4. Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0

Class C network should starting with range: [128, 191], if I'm using 192.*.*.* and setup subnet mask as 255.255.0.0, does it work?

The class C network has less than 254 hosts connected to it. As a result, the class C network mask is ideal for small networks, often known as subnetworks. For mask construction, we use the bits from class C's last octet. As a result, we must reorganize and optimize the subnet based on the availability of bits.

Assume your network ID/IP address is 192.168.1.0.

255.255.255.0 is the default subnet mask (in decimal)

11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000 is the default subnet mask (in binary)

As a result, the total number of bits is 8+8+8+0=24 bits. As previously stated, we shall borrow bits from the host component of the subnet mask for subnetting in a class C network.
