Broadcast Domains
Other devices – A device uses Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) which sends Layer 2 broadcasts to a known IPv4 address on the local network to discover the associated MAC address.
Services – A host typically acquires its IPv4 address configuration using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) which sends broadcasts on the local network to locate a DHCP server.

Reasons for Subnetting
It also enables an administrator to implement security policies such as which subnets are allowed or not allowed to communicate together.
-
Octet Boundaries
The IPv4 address and subnet mask configured on the router interface are used to identify the specific broadcast domain.
Recall that the prefix length and the subnet mask are different ways of identifying the network portion of an address.
This is done by extending the subnet mask to borrow some of the bits from the host portion of the address to create additional network bits.
Networks are most easily subnetted at the octet boundary of /8, /16, and /24.
-
Classless Subnetting
The examples seen so far borrowed host bits from the common /8, /16, and /24 network prefixes. However, subnets can borrow bits from any host bit position to create other masks.
For instance, a /24 network address is commonly subnetted using longer prefix lengths by borrowing bits from the fourth octet.

Creating 2 Subnets
-
First IPv4 host address is 192.168.1.1 and contains all 0 bits plus a right-most 1 bit in the host portion of the address.
Last IPv4 host address is 192.168.1.126 and contains all 1 bits plus a right-most 0 bit in the host portion of the address.

Calculating the Hosts
To calculate the number of hosts each subnet can support, examine the third and fourth octet.
After borrowing 7 bits for the subnet, there is one host bit remaining in the third octet and 8 host bits remaining in the fourth octet for a total of 9 bits that were not borrowed.
Apply the host calculation formula as shown in Figure 1. There are only 510 host addresses that are available for each /23 subnet.
As shown in Figure 2, the first host address for the first subnet is 172.16.0.1, and the last host address is 172.16.1.254.

Network Address Planning
the allocation of network layer address space within the corporate network needs to be well designed. Address assignment should not be random.
Planning network subnets requires examination of both the needs of an organization’s network usage, and how the subnets will be structured
This means looking at the entire network and determining the main sections of the network and how they will be segmented.
The size of the subnet involves planning the number of hosts that will require IPv4 host addresses in each subnet of the subdivided private network.

IPv6 Subnet Allocation
With over 65,000 subnets to choose from, the task of the network administrator becomes one of designing a logical scheme to address the network.
Unlike the example for IPv4, with IPv6 the WAN link subnet will not be subnetted further. Although this may “waste” addresses, that is not a concern when using IPv6
the allocation of five IPv6 subnets, with the subnet ID field 0001 through 0005 will be used for this example. Each /64 subnet will provide more addresses than will ever be needed.
