wildcard mask A 32-bit quantity used in conjunction with an
IP address to determine which bits in an IP address should
be ignored when comparing that address with another IP
address. A wildcard mask is specified when setting up
access lists.
the differnence is wildcard mask is used in ACL, OSPF etc.,
where has netmask is the mask use to define ip addersing

wild card musk is nothing but opposite of subnet musk eg
subnet musk 255.0.0.0 wild card musk 0.255.255.255

Answer / tushar
The easiest way to calculate wild card mask is subtract your net mask from 255.255.255.255
i.e. if your net mask is 255.255.242.0 then corresponding wild card mask will be 0.0.13.255
255.255.255.255
- 255.255.242.0
----------------------
0. 0. 13.255

Answer / anwar
The simple and easy way to understand wild card mask is add
the no with the digit so that your subnet mask equal to
255.255.255.255.... for example we have subnet mask
255.255.255.252 by add 3 to it make the last no 255 so wild
card mask is reverse of it 0.0.0.3 (252+3=255) here this
subnet mask is used for 10.10.10.0/30

Answer / syed mahboob feroz ahmed
Hi,
We can define Wildcard Mask as opposite to Netmask
Address.If NetMask is 255.0.0.0 the wild card Mask is
defined as 0.0.0.255.

Hi,
Wildcrad Mask is defined as ViceVersa for SubNetMask.
For example if SubNetMask is 255.255.255.0 then wildcard
MAsk is defined as 0.255.255.255.255
for Class C.
