Hello:

As a noob I have this doubt in my mind.

Assume I got an IP 191.123.234.168/29 from ISP.

My network address would be 191.123.234.168, broadcast address would
be 191.123.234.175, respectively.

Am I correct?

Thanx

Ignore that answer; you were correct. Counting binary on one's fingers
does sometimes lead to wrong answers :P

Yes, that is correct, and you have 6 useable addresses:


191.123.234.169
191.123.234.170
191.123.234.171
191.123.234.172
191.123.234.173
191.123.234.174

"ipcalc" is a most useful command which may be of interest too...

Cheers

Tim
