we get eight subnets if we do a 3-bit subnetting for a Class C network.
A class C network would have a subnet mask of 255.255. 255.0 which means that 24 bits are used for the network. In CIDR notation this is designated by a /24 following the IP address.
The range of Class C network addresses is 192.0. 0.0 to 223.255. 255.0. There are approximately 2 million different Class C networks to choose from.
Different networks use classes A, B, and C the most frequently. Subnet classes are distinguished by the number of bits dedicated to a network and the number of bits dedicated to hosts in their IP addresses.
