1. An organization with a Class B IP address of 128.25.0.0/16 wants eight subnets in its network. There are some legacy routers. Hence, they do not want to use zero and all-ones subnets. a. How many bits are used in each of the following three fields? subnetID: hostID: b. Determine the subnet mask that needs to be set in the hosts in dotted decimal notation. Subnet Mask in dotted decimal notation: c. Given that the class B address is 128.25.0.0/16, determine the network and broadcast addresses for subnet numbered 5. Network address for subnet 5: Broadcast address for subnet 5: Determine the range of assignable IP addresses for hosts in this subnet. Range of assignable IP addresses: d
