It's a theory only question.
An host on 192.168.0.0/16 can comunicate with an host on the subnet 192.168.1.0/24 ?
And viceversa?
If no, why?
NOTE: I already CAN calculate host, subnet, network id, host id, etc...
My question is different: I need to know if an host of a subnet can dialogue with a host that is sub-subnetted
Context
Hosts with a common segment in Net ID, but not identical.
This is scenario when an actual /16 net is being subnetted in /24, but the work is done 'some PCs at a time' and not the whole network is already subnetted as /24
Example 1
Host A: 192.168.1.200/16
- Netmask: 255.255.0.0
- Net ID: 192.168.0.0/16
- Host ID: 1.200
- Network range: 192.168.0.0 ... 192.168.255.255
Host B: 192.168.1.1/24
- Netmask: 255.255.255.0
- Net ID: 192.168.1.0/24
- Host ID: 1
- Network range: 192.168.1.0 ... 192.168.1.255
Can A send packets to B ? Can B send packets to A ?
Example 2 (from the accepted answer)
Host C: 192.168.0.200/16
- Netmask: 255.255.0.0
- Net ID: 192.168.0.0/16
- Host ID: 0.200
- Network range: 192.168.0.0 ... 192.168.255.255
Host D: 192.168.1.1/24
- Netmask: 255.255.255.0
- Net ID: 192.168.1.0/24
- Host ID: 1
- Network range: 192.168.1.0 ... 192.168.1.255
Can C send packets to D ? Can D send packets to A ?
