Hi

Can anybody please explain the concept of Bit boundary and where it is applied/needed/takes part in networking?

I need a clear explanation for this because I have confusion in understanding the concept

Thanks & Regards

Bit boundary is a bit in the IP address which marks the point where address IP is the same and where is different.

Assuming that you have address 192.168.8.0 with mask /24 and need 3 subnets so the bit boundary is /26 so you have

192.168.8.0/26
192.168.8.64/26
192.168.8.128/26
192.168.8.192/26
