Create a subnet

[Guest]

I have some doubt on creatting a subnet on my network.

Actually I have a single network with the IP 192.168.10.x and mask 255.255.255.0.
I want to create an another network structure dividing my actual network in 2 subnets. Each one must to support 65 hosts.
I guess the subnet mask is going to be like this: 255.255.255.192. OK?
But will this subnet mask be the same (255.255.255.192) for both network segments ?
And what about the IP addresses for both subnets ? how do I have to structure this ?

Thanks

This sounds like a test question...

Network A: 192.168.10.0 to 192.168.10.127 Mask 255.255.255.128
Network B: 192.168.10.128 to 192.168.10.255 Mask 255.255.255.128

Use a subnet calculator for these questions:

And you note that you have 128 address in the network, since you
needed 65 hosts that's the best you can do.

Should't that network B look like 192.168.10.128 to 192.168.10.254

255 would be for the broadcast address
