These groups, commonly called CIDR blocks, share an initial sequence of bits in the binary representation of their IP addresses. IPv4 CIDR blocks are identified using a syntax similar to that of IPv4 addresses: a dotted-decimal address, followed by a slash, then a number from 0 to 32, i.e., a.b.c.d / n. The dotted decimal portion is the IPv4 ...

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.
This template accepts IPv4 or IPv6 addresses as input and displays minimum-sized blocks of addresses that cover all of the inputs. The result uses CIDR notation and can be used by an administrator to block a range of IP addresses. The template can be used by editing any page, inserting the template, and previewing the result.
An example of route aggregation as a part of CIDR. A supernetwork, or supernet, is an Internet Protocol (IP) network that is formed by aggregation of multiple networks (or subnets) into a larger network. The new routing prefix for the aggregate network represents the constituent networks in a single routing table entry.
If an ISP deploys a CGN and uses private Internet address space [2] (networks 10.0.0.0 / 8, 172.16.0.0 / 12, 192.168.0.0 / 16) to connect their customers, there is a risk that customer equipment using an internal network in the same range will stop working.
The IPv6 address specification 2001:db8:: / 32 is a large address block with 2 96 addresses, having a 32-bit routing prefix. For IPv4, a network may also be characterized by its subnet mask or netmask , which is the bitmask that, when applied by a bitwise AND operation to any IP address in the network, yields the routing prefix.
This is a list of countries by IPv4 address allocation.. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) distributes large blocks of addresses to regional Internet registries (RIRs), which then assign them to national Internet registries and local Internet registries within their respective service regions.
