1) Consider the IP address 10.29.223.104/27. How many hosts are on this network? Explain why this is the case.

2) Consider a class A, class B and class C network. Which of these three would allow the greatest number of hosts on a single network?

Explain your answer.

3) You are a network administrator with a network behind a NAT firewall. You have the entire 10.0.0.0 address range to work with. You need to set up broadcast domains of up to 65 nodes. Give an example of the NetId and mask (in dotted decimal) for the smallest network you can set up.

NetID _________________

Mask _________________

4) You have a HostID of 192.168.27.221. Your network mask is 255.255.252.0. How many nodes can your network handle?

5) You have a HostID of 192.168.27.221 and your network mask is 255.255.252.0. What is the first (smallest) host address in the range?

6) You have a HostID of 192.168.27.221 and your network mask is 255.255.252.0. What is the last (largest) host address in the range?

7) Show the network mask in binary for 10.29.223.104/27
