Networking Basics
- There are two types of networks
- Public Network:
- This network is accessible over internet
- Private Network
- This the network for intranet (internal) usage
- Private networks have ip address ranges
- 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255
- 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255
- 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255
-
Through out this course we will be dealing with private networks
-
As per what we have learnt so far we have following subnet masks that can be used to create a network
- 255.255.255.0
- 255.255.0.0
- 255.0.0.0
Designing Networks
Create a network which can have 200 devices connected to it
private network ranges
10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255
Subnet Masks
255.255.255.0
255.255.0.0
255.0.0.0
SM => 255.255.255.0 => 1 (Variable) => 8 bits => 2^8 =>256
=> 255.255.0.0 => 2 octets => 16 bits =>2^16 => 65536
=> 255.0.0.0 => 3 Octects => 24 bits => 2^24 => 16777216
Size => 200
Possibilities
IP = 192.168.0.x
SM = 255.255.255.0
IP = 10.0.0.x
SM = 255.255.255.0
IP = 172.16.0.x
SM = 255.255.255.0
IP = 10.100.101.x
SM = 255.255.255.0
IP = 172.18.10.x
SM = 255.255.255.0
Create a network which can have 1000 devices connected to it
private network ranges
10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255
Subnet Masks
255.255.255.0
255.255.0.0
255.0.0.0
SM => 255.255.255.0 => 1 (Variable) => 8 bits => 2^8 =>256
=> 255.255.0.0 => 2 octets => 16 bits =>2^16 => 65536
=> 255.0.0.0 => 3 Octects => 24 bits => 2^24 => 16777216
Size => 1000
Possibilites
IP: 192.168.x.x
SM = 255.255.0.0
IP: 10.10.x.x
IP: 172.16.x.x
Create a network which can have 100000 (1 lakh) devices connected to it
private network ranges
10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255
Subnet Masks
255.255.255.0
255.255.0.0
255.0.0.0
SM => 255.255.255.0 => 1 (Variable) => 8 bits => 2^8 =>256
=> 255.255.0.0 => 2 octets => 16 bits =>2^16 => 65536
=> 255.0.0.0 => 3 Octects => 24 bits => 2^24 => 16777216
Size => 1,00,000
IP => 10.x.x.x
SM => 255.0.0.0
IP Addressing
- There are two ways of IP Addressing
- Classful Networking

- Class less Networking: In this case subnet mask is viewed as binary
- Then each subnet will have following possibilities
xxxxxxxx
11111111 => 255
11111110 => 254
11111100 => 252
11111000 => 248
11110000 => 240
11100000 => 224
11000000 => 192
10000000 => 128
- Note: We will re-discuss the above topics tomorrow
