16.0.0.0/8 is a regular class A address, so you have 16,777, 314 hosts. First host is 16.0.0.1, boradcast is 16.255.255.255, last host is 16.255.255.254.

For 1000 hosts you need a /22 as a minimum (1022 hosts) which gives you just 64 networks. But before I go on, just how many network addresses do you need? Is it 500 or 4096?

Requirement - I need 1000 host address / 500 n/w address / 4096 n/w address ( 16.0.0.0 / 8 )


I can give you either, I think!!!
