subnet bits question

Comment:
I wanna know how to calculate subnet bits for each subnet mask? And lets say I have subnet bits of 30 and if I know the IP address, how to I calculate the subnet number and address for the subnet to which the host belongs. Appreciate any help. Thanks

do a google search "calculate subnet bits"
this subject is waaayy to complex to try and explain, esp. if you don't know binary
There are tables premade if you just want to reference network/host bits..1 is available from Cisco from that google search above

if your using 30bits as network part then your subnet mask is 255.255.255.252. the subnet that your ip belongs to will be logically anded with the subnet mask to get your subnet id.
Summary: Hello & I have a question, I have an original IP range of 192.168.2.x, an original subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, and I need 6 subnets. -Now- I know that i need a subnet bit of 224, and that my new su...
Summary: Can the subnet mask decrease along with the network further development? For example, if a first layer of a corporate network subnet mask set as 223.168.1.220/30, can the second layer network subnet m...
Summary: The Cisco Press book explains how to find the various subnets given a network number & subnet mask.But it only covers the type where the subnet bit is at most 8 bits long(e.g: 172.1.2.1, 255.255.242.0...
