100 A PPENDIX A: IP A DDRESSING For your network to work correctly , all devices on the netwo rk must have: ■ The same sub-network ad dress. ■ The same subnet mask. The only value that will be different is the specific host device number . This value must always be unique.
How does a Device Obtain an IP Addr ess and Subnet Mask? 101 This type of IP Address operates on a subnet mask of ‘255.255.0.0’. See Ta b l e 5 for an example about how a network (only four computers repr esented) and a Router might be configured.
102 A PPENDIX A: IP A DDRESSING an IP address at random fr om th e industry stan dard subnet of 169.254.x.x (with a s ubnet mask of 255.255.0 .0). If two devices allocate themselves the same address, the c onflict is detected and one of the devices allocates itse lf a new addr ess.
