How to Determine the Host ID and Host ID Number

Steps as follows:
a. Aware of Any IP Classes will we find host, the aim is to determine the amount of
net bits or id host id (a).
b. To know the subnet bits, can be determined by:
2n = Subnet
n = lots of bits Subnet
c. Now that you know a lot of bits used subnet, then we find a lot of bits used to
calculate the number of host id, by the way:
b = a-n
d. Formulas Total Host ID = 2b-2
Okay, after knowing the steps needed to find and count the number of hosts, it is time to
find the answer:
Q: Ip Address: 192.168.1.0 Subnet there are 4
Diket: Class C
JML bit host id = 8 bits
JML bit subnet: 2n = 4, n = 2 bits
JML bit of waste: 8-2 = 6, then b = 6
Number of Host Bits
10101100 : 00011001 : 00000000 : 00000000
8x2=24
32-24=16
Host bits = 16
Total number of hosts:
2
^
16

= 65536
65536-2 = 65534 (Address that cannot use the all OS Address, Network Address, or the all
1
st
Address, Broadcast Address).

Classes of IP Address
The following are the classes of IP addresses.
Class AThe first octet denotes the network address, and the last three octets are the host portion. Any
IP address whose first octet is between 1 and 126 is a Class A address. Note that 0 is reserved as a
part of the default address, and 127 is reserved for internal loopback testing.
Class BThe first two octets denote the network address, and the last two octets are the host portion.
Any address whose first octet is in the range 128 to 191 is a Class B address.
Class CThe first three octets denote the network address, and the last octet is the host portion. The
first octet range of 192 to 223 is a Class C address.
Class DUsed for multicast. Multicast IP addresses have their first octets in the range 224 to 239.
Class EReserved for future use and includes the range of addresses with a first octet from 240 to 255.

NOTE:

Step One

Use the first octet of the IP address to determine the class of address (A, B, or
C).

169.199.109.137 = CLASS B
255.255.255.192


Step Two

Use the class of the address to determine which octets are available for hosts.

CLASS B = Network. Network. Host. Host
169.199.109.137
255.255.255.192


Step Three

Look at the host octet(s) in the subnet mask. Use the "Possible Masks" chart to
determine which bits are set to one. If no bits are set to one, there are no
subnets. If any bits are set to one, proceed to step four.

169.199.109.137
255.255.255.192 = 11111111 11000000 (host octets only)


Step Four

Count the total number of ones in the host octet(s) of the subnet mask. Call this
number X. Raise 2 to the power of X. Use the "Powers of 2" chart if necessary.
This is the number of potential subnets created by the mask. Two of these
potential subnets are normally not usable.

11111111 11000000 = 10 ones. 2
10
= 1,024 - 2 = 1,022 usable subnets created.


Step Five

Count the total number of zeros in the host octet(s) of the subnet mask. Call this
number Y. Raise 2 to the power of Y. Use the "Powers of 2" chart if necessary.
This is the number of potential subnets created by the mask. Two of these
numbers are never used to address hosts.

11111111 11000000 = 6 zeros. 2
6
= 64 - 2 = 62 usable host addresses created.
