To calculate the number of subnets and hosts, you will need to know the network‘s IP address and its subnet mask. The number of subnets is equal to 2^n (where n is the number of bits borrowed from the host‘s address for the subnet mask). The number of hosts is equal to 2^(32–n)-2 (where n is the number of bits borrowed from the host‘s address for the subnet mask).
