Subnetting
- Subnetting is process of dividing the network into smaller networks. Each smaller network is referred as subnet (sub-network)
- private cidr ranges
10.0.0.0/8
172.16.0.0/12
192.168.0.0/16
- Let me create a private network of 500 devices approximately
2^n ~= 500
n = 9
N = 32 - 9 = 23
ip: 192.168.0.0/23
- In this network we need to create two subnetworks of size’s approximately 200
2^n ~= 200
n = 8
N = 24
network cidr: 192.168.0.0/23 => 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.1.255

192.168.00000001.0/24 => 192.168.1.0/24
- Lets create a network with approximately 8000 devices and create 4 subnets of approximately 2000 each
Network:
2^n ~= 8000
n = 13
N = 32-13 = 19
cidr => 172.16.0.0/19

- Lets create a network of 400000 (4 lakh devices) with 8 subnets of approximately 50000 devices.
Network:
2^n ~= 400000
n = 19
N = 32-19 = 13
