Answer / hitesh
A broadcast address is an IP address that you can you to
target all systems on a specific subnet instead of single
hosts. The broadcast address of any IP address can be
calculated by taking the bit compliment of the subnet mask,
sometimes referred to as the reverse mask, and then
applying it with a bitwise OR calculation to the IP address.
If you have a system with IP address 192.168.12.220 and a
network mask of 255.255.255.128, what should the broadcast
address for the system be? Remember, to do this
calculation, you need to convert all numbers to binary
values. For bitwise OR, remember that any two values where
at least one value is "1", the result will be "1",
otherwise the result is "0".
IP Address: 11000000.10101000.00001100.11011100
Reverse Mask: 00000000.00000000.00000000.01111111
bitwise OR: -------------------------------------
Broadcast: 11000000.10101000.00001100.11111111
Convert the binary value back to octal, and you have your
resulting value of 192.168.12.255.

Answer / rajeev
broadcast address maens when all the values of network is 1
than it is boradcast address for eg. u have a ip address
192.168.1.30 and subnet mask is 255.255.255.252 than the
borad cast is 192.168.1.31.

Answer / amit
if we are using subnett mask 255.255.255.224 and subnet id
201.14.78.64 so the broad cast address is 201.14.78.95

Answer / rajeev
when all the values of network is 1 than it is the
broadcast address it will depends upon the network or
subnetting. if u have a ip address is 192.168.1.30 and
subnet mask 255.255.255.252 than broadcast address is
192.168.1.31.

are 1 than its called broadcast address.

Answer / rajeev
A broadcast address is an IP address that targets all systems on a specific subnet instead of single hosts. The broadcast address of any IP address can be calculated by taking the bit compliment of the subnet mask. for eg. we have ipaddress is
57 248 129 109 / 22
than network address is broadcast address and subnet are these.
Network Address: 57 248 128 0
Broadcast Address: 57 248 131 255
Sunbet Mask: 255 255 252 0

Hi Guys.. I hv a confusion in my mind. Plz help me to clear my concept. How a port respond when a PortFast port receives any BPDU. Please make sure that BPDU Guard, ROOT Guard are not considered in this scenario. Just a spanning tree without any enhancement. Will the port goes through STP port state??? As we knw that PortFast bypass the Listening & Learning State? How it will respond when a BPDU (Inferior or Superior) is received on that Port. Thanks in advance. Waiting for Replay.
