1 1 vote consider subnent mask of /28so our network part is192.168.16.0101_ _ _ _now to make it directed broadcast address make all host bits as 1192.168.16.0101 1 1 1 1 which is 192.168.16.95for limited broadcasting address make all bits as 1 so255.255.255.255 is our limited jacknroll answered Oct 16, 2025 jacknroll comment Share Follow 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.
0 0 votes Identify Network and Host Bits: The address is $192.168.16.89/28$. The $/28$ indicates that the first $28$ bits are for the network and the remaining $32-28=4$ bits are for the hosts.Find the Network Address: The network address is the first address of the subnet. To find it, we set all 4 host bits to $0$.The last octet is $89$, which is $01011001$ in binary. The subnet mask for $128$ in the last octet is $11110000$. Performing a bitwise AND: $01011001$ AND $11110000$ gives $01010000$. $01010000$ in decimal is $80$ . So the network address is $192.168.16.80$.Find the Broadcast Address: To find the broadcast address, we take the network address and set all $4$ host bits to $1$.Network address (last octet): $01010000$. Setting the last $4$ bits to $1$ gives $01011111$. $01011111$ in decimal is $95$. Therefore, the broadcast address is $192.168.16.95$.
