Calculation of Network ID

Logical Operator
 A logical operator is a symbol or word used to connect two or more
expressions to produce another compound value.

 The value of the compound value depends only on that of the original
expressions and on the meaning of the operator.

 Common logical operators include AND, OR, and NOT.

 ‘AND’ Operator
 AND operator returns a value of TRUE if both its inputs are TRUE.

 To get the output result as TRUE through AND operation, both the input values
must be TRUE

 To get the output result as ‘1’, all input values must be ‘1’. If any of the input
value is a zero, the result output will be zero.

Input-1 0 1 1 0
Input-2 1 1 0 0
Output after AND Operation 0 1 0 0

200.50.60.70/28 = 200.50.60.64
200.50.70.150/29 = 200.50.70.144
 Values We Need To Work With Network Design
1. We need the Network ID

2. We need the Subnet Size (means the maximum number of IP addresses we

can get from the Network)

3. We need the number of Possible networks

4. We need the Broadcast ID for every sub-networks.

5. We need the first available IP address & last IP address of every network.

6. We need the available IP address range (the IP addresses which can be

assigned to the users)
 Calculation of Subnet Size
Calculation of Subnet Size (number of possible IP addresses):

1. To calculate the Subnet Size, we need to remember a Magic Number which

is 256

2. Then we deduct the value of the last octet of the Subnet Mask from the
Magic Number.

3. For example, if the Subnet Mask is with CIDR value/26, that means
255.255.255.192, then the Subnet Size is = 256-192 = 64 (number of
possible IP addresses)
 Calculation of Subnet Size
Calculation of Subnet Size (number of possible IP addresses):

• For example, the IP address is 192.168.20.0/26

• Subnet Size = 256 – 192 = 64 (Possible IP addresses)

 Calculation of Number of Networks
Calculation of Subnet Size (number of possible IP addresses):

• First we need to calculate the subnet size.

• Number of Networks will be:

Magic Value/Subnet Size
 Calculation of Number of Networks
Calculation of Subnet Size (number of possible IP addresses):

• For example, the IP address is 192.168.20.0/26

• Subnet Size = 256 – 192 = 64 (Possible IP addresses)

• Number of Network: Magic Value/Subnet Size = 256/64 = 4

 Calculation of Network Parameters
Formula:
1. Subnet Size = (Magic Value – Last value of Subnet)

2. Number of Network: Magic Value/Subnet Size

3. Number of Host per network: Subnet Size – 2

 Calculation of Subnet Size and Number of Network
Let the IP is: 192.168.200.150/28
That is: 192.168.200.150 255.255.255.240

 Use the Magic Number (256).

 Deduct the last value of subnet mask from the Magic Number. In that way we
get the Subnet Size. (Here it is: 256-240=16)

 Subnet size determines the number of IP addresses available from a range.

 Number of subnet is obtained by dividing the magic number by the subnet size.
Here it is: 256/16 = 16
 AlterNet Way of Calculating Network ID
Let the IP is: 192.168.200.150/28
That is: 192.168.200.150 255.255.255.240

 First, we need to find out the Subnet Size

 Here, size of the subnet (Using Magic Number): 256-240 =16

 The last OCTET of the subnet, which indicates the Subnet ID, will be the closest
multiplied value of the subnet size.

 In our case, it will be 16x9 = 144

 Hence the Network ID is : 192.168.200.144/28

 AlterNet Way of Calculating Network ID
Let the IP is: 192.168.200.100/29

192.168.200.100 255.255.255.248
Subnet Size: 256-248=8

8x12=96
8x13=104

So, network ID is 192.168.200.96 255.255.255.248

 AlterNet Way of Calculating Network ID
Let the IP is: 192.168.200.100/27
That is: 192.168.200.100 255.255.255.224

To find out the network ID:

Multiply the subnet size and in that way go to the closest value of the last octet of
IP address. That closest value is the Network ID.

Subnet Size: 256 – 224 = 32

Network ID: 32x3 = 96

Net work ID = 192.168.200.96

Number of subnet: 256/32 = 8

Net ID= 32
Number of Network: 256/16 = 16

 192.168.20.200/25 or, 192.168.20.200 255.255.255.128

Subnet Size = 256-128= 128
