I was working on to get a network and wildcard for the below mentioned networks 
and I got this answer --> 192.49.166.0 4.255.1.255 which is untrue! The correct 
answer is 205.49.166.0 2.0.1.255



http://blog.ipexpert.com/2009/06/10/wild-card-masks/ 


205.49.166.0/24
207.49.166.0/24
208.49.166.0/24
205.49.167.0/24
207.49.167.0/24
192.49.166.0/24

I'm writing the process I am following to do the ANDing and XORing operations 
of these networks, I'll take the first octet of all the networks.

First the AND operations

208 -> 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 1                 208 -> 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 1           207 -> 
1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1
207 -> 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1205 -> 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1  192 -> 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 
----------------------------------------------------------------   
--------------------------------------
AND->1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 -> 208AND->1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 ->208AND-> 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 -> 
192

Now I am ANDing the results of first two and the result of this I'll AND with 
the result of third AND operation done above which is 192.

208 -> 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1196-> 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0
208->  1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0192-> 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0
-----------------------------------------------------------------
AND-> 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 -> 196AND->1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 -> 192-> And hence the first 
octet of the network would be 192!

Now the XOR operations.

208 -> 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 1                 208 -> 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 1           207 -> 
1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1
207 -> 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1205 -> 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1  192 -> 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 
----------------------------------------------------------------   --------------------------------------
XOR-> 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 ->10 AND-> 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1 ->9AND->  0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 -> 7

Now I am XORing the results of first two and the result of this I'll XOR with 
the result of third XOR operation done above which is 7.

 10 -> 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0  3-> 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1
   9->  0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1  7-> 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1
-----------------------------------------------------------------
XOR->0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 -> 3      AND->0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 -> 4 -> And hence the first 
octet of the wildcard mask would be 4!

So the first Octet of Network statement I get is 192 and the first octet of 
wildcard mask I get is 4!

>>> The other question I have is about the wild card mask, in the answer it is 
>>> 2.0.1.255, here the second octet which has all zeros is written as a Zero 
>>> "0" rightly, but the last octet which is also all zeros is written as 255? 
>>> I found this a rather strange phenomenon!!

While I am sure I am doing the AND and XOR operations correctly, I might 
be inadvertently deviating somewhere during the calculation!
