How
to calculate the Broadcast Address ?
|
|||||
| . | |||||
| The Broadcast Address is obtained doing a binary OR between the Subnet Address and the inverted Subnet Mask (see "Binary Operators"). | |||||
| . | |||||
| For example, if we have the IP 150.10.10.10 with a mask 255.255.252.0 (also written 150.10.10.10/22), the Subnet Address is 150.10.8.0 (see "How to calculate the Subnet Address ?"). | |||||
| . | |||||
| Subnet Address : | 10010110.00001010.00001000.00000000 | 150.10.8.0 | |||
| The inverted mask: | 00000000.00000000.00000011.11111111 | 0.0.3.255 | |||
| Binary OR | -------------------------------------- | ------------ | |||
| Broadcast Address: | 10010110.00001010.00001011.11111111 | 150.10.11.255 | |||
