4094 is the maximum number of hosts that the subnet can handle. Like an IP address, subnet masks are written in dot-decimal format.
For instance, the subnet mask for the prefix 198.51. 100.0/24 would be 255.255. 255.0. A subnetwork is a divided portion of a larger network. More specifically, subnets divide an IP network logically into numerous, smaller network pieces. Data is sent from one computer to another via the internet using the Internet Protocol (IP).
255.255.240.0 is the subnet mask (8N+8N+4N = 20N).
Network bit count = 20
Consequently, the number of host bits is 32–20–12
Therefore, the total/maximum number of hosts is equal to 2n -2 212 - 2 = 4094.
It can support up to 4094 hosts in total.
