Multiple IPv6 addresses can be entered, as shown in the following example which uses a long command, not shown for brevity. The first two rows show that 3 of the entered addresses are in a /33 range, while 72 are in a /64. Blocking the /33 would affect 2G /64, that is, over 2 billion /64 allocations, but would block only 3 of the given addresses.
Each / 8 block contains 256 3 = 2 24 = 16,777,216 addresses, which covers the whole range of the last three delimited segments of an IP address. This means that 256 /8 address blocks fit into the entire IPv4 space.
Range contributions are now supported in MediaWiki core. Simply enter the range at Special:Contributions. You can also do a wildcard search (e.g. 83.217.178.*) using the Contribsrange gadget gadget. Enable "Allow /16, /24 and /27 – /32 CIDR ranges" at Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets under "Advanced".
Ranges There are two types of IP ranges CIDR ranges, e.g. 123.123.123.0/24; Non-CIDR ranges; The latter are frequently found in the allocation of IP-address ranges by for instance a provider to a customers or DHCP allocated addresses for certain purposes, as can be found by querying the WHOIS dataase of a RIR.
CIDR notation is a compact representation of an IP address and its associated network mask. The notation was invented by Phil Karn in the 1980s. [ 9 ] [ 10 ] CIDR notation specifies an IP address, a slash ('/') character, and a decimal number.

In support of link-local multicasts which do not use IGMP, any IPv4 multicast address that falls within the *.0.0.0 / 24 and *.128.0.0 / 24 ranges will be broadcast to all ports on many Ethernet switches, even if IGMP snooping is enabled, so addresses within these ranges should be avoided on Ethernet networks where the functionality of IGMP ...
