What is the maximum number of bits that can be used for subnetting, when the network address is a Class C address?

    Correct Answer: B

    A Class C address consists of 24 bits for the network address, leaving 8 bits for the host portion. These 8 bits can be entirely used for subnetting. Thus, the maximum number of bits that can be used for subnetting in a Class C address is 8.
