When I used a ip calculator it shows /27 to be 8 subnets and 30 host not /24 , what gives?

[c1team]

nvm gotta ahead of the video

@c1team /24 is the original subnet mask. /27 is our new subnet mask. /24 = 255.255.255.0. /27 = 255.255.255.224

by using custom subnetting you can create more networks in smaller pieces (network = its like a group of ips)

Don't worry, just figured it out.

Class C address-3 octets 3x8bits=24

Class B address- 2 octets 2x8 bits=16

Yeah?

@wurtzelgummage The slash /24, or /whatever, represents how many bits are being used for the network portion of the IP address. This is called slash notation.

"I'm sorry but what does the /24 have to do with it. Where did that come into the working out?"
