ok so I was wondering is there a command on cmd.exe that I could input and it would send back data from my own network? like I could find out the IP or hostname of the pc's in the same network , since I am under a router, I supposed this would be possible some how. If this is not possible this way then how?
sorry if this is against the rules ( I didn't really think it was)
Oh,Not in cruelty, Not in wrath,
The REAPER came today,
An ANGEL visited this gray path,
And took the cube away.
Well, to further cats explanation and your knowledge. Here:
Reserved for private internal network usage based on class
Class A:
10.0.0.0 through 10.255.255.255
Class B
172.16.0.0 through 172.31.255.255
Class C
192.168.0.0 through 192.168.255.255
Then for each class you use, there is a specific supernet and subnet address which correlate with the IP address you use. To determine the subnet, you do the following:
To determine a subnet address, based on IP address:
Class A Address
The standard subnet mask is always 255.0.0.0 for class A address'
The first 8 bits (x) are reserved for the network portion of the IP address leaving the last 24 bits for the host portion. Like this:
XXXX XXXX. YYYY YYYY. YYYY YYYY. YYYY YYYY
Because of this, there are 17 million unique combinations of IP address which can be used in a Class A network address.
Class B Address
Like the class A except class B has a standard subnet mask of 255.255.0.0.
The first 16 bits (x) are reserved for the network portion of the IP address leaving the last 16 bits for the host portion Like This:
XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX. YYYY YYYY. YYYY YYYY
There are 16 bits left for the host potion of the address and thus you can have 16,000 hosts on each Class B Network.
Based on this information, can someone tell me what occurs for Class C Address', further more how many hosts can be on a Class C network? This is probably the most common for home based networks.
Someone answer that and I will explain how to create a custom subnet mask for your network. [edit] PS: If you can answer this without looking it up, wait a bit and give some other people a chance to think about it. [/edit]

Cat's was right, but I edited this to give some other people a chance at looking it up and learning something. Answer is saved and will be posted again if no one can get it, which I dont see happening. - Big-E
