## Identify Your Local Subnet
|
||||||
|
Use the steps below to quickly identify your local subnet for use as a Network Resource.
|
||||||
|
### Windows
|
||||||
|
1. Open **Command Prompt**.
|
||||||
|
2. Run:
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
ipconfig
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
3. Look for your active network adapter.
|
||||||
|
4. Note the values for:
|
||||||
|
- `IPv4 Address`
|
||||||
|
- `Subnet Mask`
|
||||||
|
Example:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.10
|
||||||
|
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
The subnet is `192.168.1.0/24`.
|
||||||
|
### Linux
|
||||||
|
1. Open **Terminal**.
|
||||||
|
2. Run:
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
ip -c a
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
or
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
ip route
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
3. Identify the active interface (e.g., `eth0`, `wlan0`) and note the IP with CIDR suffix:
|
||||||
|
Example:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
inet 192.168.1.10/24
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
The subnet is `192.168.1.0/24`.
|
||||||
|
### macOS
|
||||||
|
1. Open **Terminal**.
|
||||||
|
2. Run:
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
ifconfig
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
3. Locate the active interface (`en0`, `en1`, etc.).
|
||||||
|
4. Look for:
|
||||||
|
- `inet` (IP address)
|
||||||
|
- `netmask` (in hex)
|
||||||
|
Example:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
inet 192.168.1.10 netmask 0xffffff00
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
Hex `0xffffff00` = `255.255.255.0`, which is `/24`.
|
||||||
|
The subnet is `192.168.1.0/24`.
|
||||||
