Program how to find the broadcast ip

Asked By deloresigott 0 points N/A Posted on - 03/07/2013

Good day! Thank you for helping. I am a newbie on networking and I will be assigned to work with a few computers here at the shop. Is there a program how to find the broadcast IP very quickly? Calculating the IP addresses on manual manner would take bit much of my time if I do it.

Program how to find the broadcast ip

Hi Deloresigott,

Broadcast IP is used when we need to send a datagram/packet to all the nodes connected to the network or subnet.

Broadcast IP would be your network with 255 for the last octet.

E.g IP 192.168.0.1

Network 192.168.0.0,

Broadcast 192.168.0.255

You can calculate broadcast IP uses below link.
