2. Wildcard mask - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildcard_mask

   For example, a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 (11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000 2) inverts to a wildcard mask of 0.0.0.255 (00000000.00000000.00000000.11111111 2). A wild card mask is a matching rule. [2] The rule for a wildcard mask is: 0 means that the equivalent bit must match; 1 means that the equivalent bit does not matter

3. 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 ...

4. Subnet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subnet

   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 modern standard form of specification of the network prefix is CIDR notation, used for both IPv4 and IPv6.

5. Default gateway - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Default_gateway

   The networking software stack of each computer contains a routing table that specifies which interface is used for transmission and which router on the network is responsible for forwarding to a specific set of addresses. If none of these forwarding rules is appropriate for a given destination address, the default gateway is chosen as the ...

6. Reserved IP addresses - Wikipedia

7. Multicast address - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicast_address

   Link-scoped multicast addresses use a comparable format. [27] Based on the value of the flag bits, IPv6 multicast addresses can be Unicast-Prefix-based Multicast Addresses, [18] Source-Specific Multicast Addresses, [18] or Embedded RP IPv6 Multicast Addresses. [26] Each of these types of multicast addresses have their own format and follow ...
