Page 5: What is Broadcast Addresses

The Broadcast Address is a special address that can be used when sending information to ALL hosts on the network.

Instead of sending individual messages to each host, a single message can be sent to the Broadcast Address.

The Broadcast Address is based on the Network Address, with the host portions replaced by 255.

For example, if the Class B network is 172.125

The Broadcast Address is: 172.125.255.255

If the Class C network is 192.126.24

The Broadcast Address is: 192.126.24.255

This is the end of Broadcast Addresses tutorial.
