Subnetting With Class A and Class B Networks.

For class “A” and class “B” addresses the subnet mask also determines which bits are part of the network
number and which are part of the host ID.

A class “B” address has two host ID octets available for subnetting and a class “A” address has three host ID
octets (see Error! Reference source not found.) available for subnetting.

The following table is a summary for class “B” subnet planning.
