Re: [44net] On the Issue of Subnets

It took me some time to re-invent the program to calculate the subnet pattern but here is a table of the subnets indexed in intended order of assignment. The goal is to postpone the collision of host assignments with subnet assignments. Looking at the bit patterns it becomes clear that the first 32 subnets are the primaries and the secondaries are the overflow nets supporting added hosts in the primaries. If this were implemented across eight bits instead of six the number of subnets quadruples.
