Read the lab details listed below, and then
answer the questions listed in the lab exercise.
“EMS” Simplified
Method Class B
In subnetting a Class B address, the process is the same in
creating the cheat sheet chart that we did in a Class C address. The added
difference is that now we are using the third octet as well as the forth octet that
was used in the Class C address. This is because the first two octet are the
network values and now, the last two Octets are the Host values as shown
here: 172.16. 3 . 5
Network Host
Below we see the Class B Subnetting Guide created the same way we
did in the Class C Subnetting Guide.

The steps to create a Class B Subnetting Guide is to continue
line/row 1 by multiplying each value by two from right to left. Line 1 is still
the number of IP addresses in total in each new subnet. Step 2 for line/row 2
we again subtract two out of each value which is the 2 reserved IP addresses,
the network address and the network broadcast which is again the first and last
value in the subnet range. The 3rd step is to again take the (0)
zero from the right and place it under the last value on the left. Continue
that process until line/row 3 is the reverse of line/row 2 as shown in the
above Class B Subnetting Guide. The final step is to place the value of each bit
place in the 3rd octet by starting with 1 above the 256 in Line 1
and continue in multiples of two until each place has a value from 1 to 128.
These are now the groups of ranges that are in each subnet for a Class B
subnetted address.
Remember that using this Cheat-Sheet Guide gives you the usable
numbers available for the creation of subnetworks and hosts. The numbers on
line 2 are the numbers of usable Hosts. The numbers on line 3 are again the
number of usable subnetworks. That is because we removed both the network IP
and broadcast IP from each out of line 1.
We subnet a Class B with this guide by again giving up bits from
left to right starting with the 128 bit on the far left in the 3rd
Octet and moving right to get the subnet range we want. If we want 1000 host
computers on each of the 60 subnetworks, we would give up the 128, the 64, the
32, the 16, the 8 and the 4 bit values of line 1. That means we would borrow
those 6 bits. We would identify this by drawing a line down from the 4 past the
1022 to the 62 as indicated in the example below.
We started with the default mask of 255.255.0.0. To get the new subnet
mask we simply add the values of each borrowed bit from left to right on line
1. If we add 128, 64, 32, 16, 8, and 4. We get 252. The new subnet mask is
255.255.252.0
To get the subnet mask, simply add the values of each bit we used
to create the subnet.

If we wanted to create a subnet with 30 hosts on each of 2046
subnetworks as indicated above, we would borrow all the bits of the 3rd
octet and the first three bits of the 4th octet, (always from the
left) or 11 bits.
We would get the subnet mask by adding the values of the 8 bits
in the 3rd octet (or 255) and those we used in the 4th
Octet (or 128 + 64 + 32 = 224) for a subnet mask of 255.255.255.224
Notice the number 4 in the groups column, this gives us the
groupings value of four ranges of 0 to 255 in the 4th octet that
will be used for each of our new Class B subnets. Each subnet is in groups of four,
as indicated by Table 2 below. The first and last subnets are unavailable for
use due to the use of the first subnet 0 as the network value and the last subnet
255 as the broadcast value.

This continues until all 256 values from 0 to 255 are used in the
3rd octet vertically. Notice that the 4th octet values
are read horizontally from 0 to 255 where the 3rd Octet is read vertically
from 0 to 255. Table 2 stopped at Subnet 4, but in reality goes on to subnet 64
with four groups in each subnet.
These same processes for Class B is applied depending on what
your needs are in the number of hosts and the number of networks needing subnet
addresses. If we had wanted 2000 hosts on each of the 30 networks, we would
have taken bits down to the 8 and the groups would have been in groups of eight.
Again, this is applied accordingly to your needs.
