Some large / 8 blocks of IPv4 addresses, the former Class A network blocks, are assigned in whole to single organizations or related groups of organizations, either by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), through the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA), or a regional Internet registry.
The method divides the IP address space for Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) into five address classes based on the leading four address bits. Classes A, B, and C provide unicast addresses for networks of three different network sizes. Class D is for multicast networking and the class E address range is reserved for future or experimental ...
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.
Decomposition of the quad-dotted IPv4 address representation to its binary value. IPv4 uses 32-bit addresses which limits the address space to 4 294 967 296 (2 32) addresses. IPv4 reserves special address blocks for private networks (2 24 + 2 20 + 2 16 ≈ 18 million addresses) and multicast addresses (2 28 ≈ 268 million addresses).
The document goes on to list the remaining Class A networks of 44 through 126 as unassigned and 127 as reserved. It lists all Class B networks except 128.000 and 192.255 as unassigned and list those two as reserved. Similarly, it lists the Class C networks of 192.000.001 and 223.255.255 as reserved and the ones in between as unassigned.

This is a list of the IP protocol numbers found in the field Protocol of the IPv4 header and the Next Header field of the IPv6 header. It is an identifier for the encapsulated protocol and determines the layout of the data that immediately follows the header. Both fields are eight bits wide.
