Ive been at this for quite a while and the odd subnet question still gets
me.

Boson question:

IP address 172.16.3.57 w/ and 11-bit subnet mask. What are valid hosts?

I think ok class B, but I look at 11 bits as 255.224.0.0
(11111111.11100000.0.0) which does not go with the choices of answers I
had.

I got it wrong as the answer says an 11-bit mask is 255.255.255.224 when
using a class b address. Is the mask there not 27 bits? What am I missing
there? How do they get the above mask w/11 bits?

The valid hosts were:

172.16.3.33-172.16.3.62, which I think is valid for a 27 bit mask

Thanks for clue.
Keith
