Now if I would like to divide the above subnet into 2 with 106 addresses each, then It would be
The 1st address is network address and last is broadcast address in any subnet. so including them
would be total IP addresses but those are not usable IP addresses, so now it will be 108-2 = 106
100.2.30.148/12 - broadcast address and 2nd one being 100.2.30.149/12 with range 100.2.30.149
- 100.2.30.254
Likewise, you can divide one large subnet into multiple small subnets. You should know the rule
of octet and subnetting.
Subnets can be divided into groups (2,4,8,16…etc.) and each group can have
2,4,8,16,32,64,128,255,1204…., etc.
