Review
Advanced Subnet Calculator is developed as a free tool by people from SolarWinds. This handy tool will allow you to execute realtime DNS and PING test, while making subnet creation and network worksheet generation simple and easy. It's an indispensable tool for almost any network administrator. The application is organized into five tabs from where you can access everything you can do with Subnet Calculator.
From the Classful Subnet Calculator tab, you can generate a list of subnets based on a number of different parameters. The classful approach to masking is the most common and is achieved by adding some numbers to the standard classes.
The following information is calculated after entering an IP address:
• Subnet
• Mask
• Inverse mask
• Subnet size
• Host range
• Broadcast
Let’s know a little more about some characteristics of the platform:
• IP Address: The IP address you specify is used as a base address when calculating subnets. You can click on “Generate Subnets” to calculate a list of subnets.
• Subnet Mask: is the subnet mask used when generating a list of subnets. The subnet mask automatically adjusts when you change any other parameters.
• Mask Bits: is the number of network (or mask) bits used when generating a subnet list. The number of mask bits automatically adjusts when you change any other parameters.
• Host Bits: is the number of host bits used when generating a list of subnets. The number of host bits automatically adjusts when you change any other parameters.
• Number of Subnets: is the number of subnets that can be generated based on the subnet mask. The number of subnets automatically adjusts when you change any other parameters.
• Hosts per Subnet: is the number of hosts within each subnet, based on the subnet mask. The number of hosts automatically adjusts when you change any other parameters.
• Subnet Bit Mask: is the mask template for the current subnet mask.
• Copying to the Windows clipboard: you can copy the current subnet information to the Windows clipboard by clicking on the “Copy to Clipboard” button at any moment. Click Copy Subnets to copy the list of subnets to the Windows clipboard. Exporting is also available from the File menu.
The Subnet Addresses tab helps you generate a worksheet of IP addresses for any subnet. Notes for each IP address can be added in the Notes column. These notes are printed or exported when the list of IP addresses is printed or exported.
After calculating information, the Advanced Subnet Calculator allows you to transfer that information to other tools through exporting and copy and paste capabilities. You can also print calculated information.
This tool is available free of charge, downloadable from the developer’s Web Site. |
