Hi ,

I am new to this networking world.Have a basic qn on subnetting

Using Subnetting can we increase the number of system that can be connected in a network

For example take in case of company having Class C IP address from 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.0.255.Using subnetting concept is it possible to have more than 254 systems connected.If so,can some one explain how this can be done

Being that your on a Class C network, 254 hosts is indeed the max number of hosts. But you can go with a Class B network for a total of 65,534 hosts or a Class A network for a total of 16,777,214 hosts.
