Page 103: Network Classes
GigaX Series L2 Managed Switch User Guide 6.1.2 Network classes The three commonly used network classes are A, B, and C. (There is also a class D but it has a special use beyond the scope of this discussion.) These classes have different uses and characteristics. -
Page 104: Subnet Masks
GigaX Series L2 Managed Switch User’s Guide Subnet masks A mask looks like a regular IP address, but contains a pattern of bits that tells what parts of an IP address are the network ID and what parts are the host ID: bits set to 1 mean "this bit is part of the network ID"... - Page 105 GigaX Series L2 Managed Switch User Guide The two extra bits in Field 4 can have four values (00, 01, 10, 11), so there are four subnets. Each subnet uses the remaining six bits in field4 for its host IDs, ranging from 0 to 63.
