舉例說明該算法。
例:給定一 class c address : 192.168.5.0 ,要求劃分20個子網,每個子網5個主機。
解:因為4 <5 < 8 ,用256-8=248 ---->即是所求的子網掩碼,對應的子網數也就出來了。這是針對C類地址。
針對B類地址的做法。對於B類地址,假如主機數小於或等於254,與C類地址算法相同。對於主機數大於254的,如需主機 700台,50個子網(相當大了),512 < 700< 1024
256-(1024/256)=256-4=252 ---->即是所求的子網掩碼,對應的子網數也就出來了。上面256-4中的4(2的2次冪)是指主機數用2進製表示時超過8位的位數,即超過2位,掩碼為剩餘的前6位,即子網數為2(6)-2=62個。
