Subnetting Exercises Solution

The document discusses IP addressing classes and subnetting. It provides the default subnet masks for Class A, B, and C addresses. It defines the ranges of the first octet for each class - Class A is 1-126, Class B is 128-191, Class C is 192-223. For given IP addresses, it identifies the class and provides the default Class C subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. It also lists the three private IP address blocks recommended by IANA as 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, and 192.168.0.0/16.
