Subnet Used for link-local addresses [5] between two hosts on a single link when no IP address is otherwise specified, such as would have normally been retrieved from a DHCP server 172.16.0.0/12 172.16.0.0–172.31.255.255 1 048 576: Private network Used for local communications within a private network [3] 192.0.0.0/24 192.0.0.0–192.0.0.255 256
The routing prefix of an address is identified by the subnet mask, written in the same form used for IP addresses. For example, the subnet mask for a routing prefix that is composed of the most-significant 24 bits of an IPv4 address is written as 255.255.255.0.
The CIDR notation for the same IP address and subnet is 192.0.2.1 / 24, because the first 24 bits of the IP address indicate the network and subnet. IPv4 addresses

CIDR notation can even be used with no IP address at all, e.g. when referring to a / 24 as a generic description of an IPv4 network that has a 24-bit prefix and 8-bit host numbers. For example: 198.51.100.14 / 24 represents the IPv4 address 198.51.100.14 and its associated network prefix 198.51.100.0 , or equivalently, its subnet mask 255.255 ...

A wildcard mask is a mask of bits that indicates which parts of an IP address are available for examination. In the Cisco IOS, [1] they are used in several places, for example: To indicate the size of a network or subnet for some routing protocols, such as OSPF. To indicate what IP addresses should be permitted or denied in access control lists ...
The router's inside address is: 192.168.4.1; The network has a subnet mask of: 255.255.255.0 (/24 in CIDR notation) The address range assignable to hosts is from 192.168.4.1 to 192.168.4.254. TCP/IP defines the addresses 192.168.4.0 (network ID address) and 192.168.4.255 (broadcast IP address).
