  2. Subnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subnet

    The first subnet obtained from subnetting a larger network has all bits in the subnet bit group set to zero. It is therefore called subnet zero. [7] The last subnet obtained from subnetting a larger network has all bits in the subnet bit group set to one. It is therefore called the all-ones subnet. [8]

  4. IP address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address

    The term subnet mask is only used within IPv4. Both IP versions however use the CIDR concept and notation. In this, the IP address is followed by a slash and the number (in decimal) of bits used for the network part, also called the routing prefix. For example, an IPv4 address and its subnet mask may be 192.0.2.1 and 255.255.255.0, respectively.

  5. IPv4 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv4

    The first address in a subnet is used to identify the subnet itself. In this address all host bits are 0. To avoid ambiguity in representation, this address is reserved. [18] The last address has all host bits set to 1. It is used as a local broadcast address for sending messages to all

  6. Classless Inter-Domain Routing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classless_Inter-Domain_Routing

    A subnet mask is a bitmask that encodes the prefix length associated with an IPv4 address or network in quad-dotted notation: 32 bits, starting with a number of 1-bits equal to the prefix length, ending with 0-bits, and encoded in four-part dotted-decimal format: 255.255.255.0. A subnet mask encodes the same information as a prefix length but ...

  7. Classful network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classful_network

    Today, IP addresses are associated with a subnet mask. This was not required in a classful network because the mask was implied by the address itself; any network device would inspect the first few bits of the IP address to determine the class of the address and thus its netmask.

  8. Talk:Broadcast domain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Broadcast_domain

    This is why the first address and the last address are never assigned to a computer. The first address is the network, or subnet address, and the last address is the broadcast address. The "Broadcast Domain" refers to all IP addresses that can be assigned to nodes that can will receive a "broadcast" message within the subnet or Broadcast Domain.

  9. Longest prefix match - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_prefix_match

    In this case, the longest prefix of the candidate routes is 192.168.20.16/28, since its subnet mask (/28) is longer than the other entry's mask (/16), making the route more specific. Forwarding tables often contain a default route , which has the shortest possible prefix match, to fall back on in case matches with all other entries fail.
