# Midterm Sample Questions
Difference between NAS and SAN?
Subnet:
* What kind of class is the given IP?
* What is the subnet mask, network address, etc?
* Subnet addresses?
`Host & subnet mask(classless)`
BTW: this is the analog of the network address(classful addressing). When we talk about network addresses we are implying a classful network.
* Subnet bits
i.e. 21 => 8+8+5+0 <= `5` is the odd one out so we have _5 subnet bits_
* VLSM - Variable Length Subnet Mask
Suppose we want to assign addresses to the following networks with x many hosts.
A:600; B:1000; C:200
`150.180.0.0/16`
`150.181.0.0/16`
Start with the largest network B : requires 1000 hosts.
Hosts part requires 10 bits so we have an IP/22.
Network address then is (subnet address)150.180.0.0/22 - (broadcast address)150.180.3.255/22
**NOTE:** I included both the subnet(network) address and the broadcast for sake of brevity.
