What is the main purpose of dividing IP addresses into classes?
What is the main purpose of dividing IP addresses into classes?
- To distinguish the network and host portions of the IP address (correct)
- To increase the number of available IP addresses
- To improve the efficiency of routing protocols
- To provide a more organized structure for IP addresses
What is the difference between Classful IP addressing and Classless IP addressing?
What is the difference between Classful IP addressing and Classless IP addressing?
- Classful addressing is more efficient for large networks, while Classless addressing is more efficient for small networks
- Classful addressing depends on the network and host portions, while Classless addressing does not (correct)
- Classful addressing uses fixed subnet masks, while Classless addressing uses variable subnet masks
- Classful addressing is used for IPv6, while Classless addressing is used for IPv4

Study Notes
Classful IPv4 Addressing
- IP addresses are divided into classes to distinguish between the network and host portions.
- This leads to "Classful IP addressing", which is different from "Classless IP addressing".
IP Address Assignment
- An IP address in binary is divided into network and host portions, e.g., 00001010. 00100000. 00001001. 00000001.
- The same IP address in binary dotted decimal is 10. 32. 10. 1.
IP vs. MAC Addresses
- IP addresses define end devices, are used for end-to-end communication, and are 32-bit addresses divided into network and host portions.
- IP addresses are logical addresses that can be assigned and changed by administrators.
- MAC addresses define local devices, are used for node-to-node communication, and are 48-bit addresses divided into OUI and hardware serial number portions.
Subnetting
- The subnet mask determines the network and host fields of an IP address.
- A subnet mask is 32 bits long and has 4 octets, just like an IP address.
- Subnet masks can be assigned manually or automatically.
- Default subnet masks for Class A, B, and C addresses are: [no specific values provided]
Network Address Translation (NAT)
- NAT is a technology that provides mapping between private and universal addresses.
- NAT can be used by hosts that do not connect to the Internet.
