What are Wild Card Masks?
Short cut method to a quick calculation of a network subnet to wildcard:
- 255 – {netmask bits on subnet mask}
Examples:
- to create wild card mask for 196.200.220.160 255.255.255.240
- 196.200.220.160 0.0.0.15 {255 – 240}
- to create wild card mask for 196.200.220.0 255.255.252.0
