Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR / ˈ s aɪ d ər, ˈ s ɪ-/) is a method for allocating IP addresses for IP routing.The Internet Engineering Task Force introduced CIDR in 1993 to replace the previous classful network addressing architecture on the Internet.
Template {{IPaddr}} is used to make an IP address stand out in the text, to improve readability. Template parameters [Edit template data] This template prefers inline formatting of parameters. Parameter Description Type Status IP address 1 The IP address to display, either IPv4 or IPv6. An IP address is displayed in italics, using lower case letters for IPv6 addresses. Example 198.51.100.52 or ...
Since the introduction of the CIDR system, IANA has typically allocated address space in the size of /8 prefix blocks for IPv4 and/23 to/12 prefix blocks from the 2000::/3 IPv6 block to requesting regional registries as needed. Since the exhaustion of the Internet Protocol Version 4 address space, no further IPv4 address space is allocated by ...
In IPv6 this is the only standards-based form to denote network or routing prefixes. For example, the IPv4 network 192.0.2.0 with the subnet mask 255.255.255.0 is written as 192.0.2.0 / 24, and the IPv6 notation 2001:db8:: / 32 designates the address 2001:db8:: and its network prefix consisting of the most significant 32 bits.
Network diagram with IP network addresses indicated e.g. 192.168.100.3.. A network address is an identifier for a node or host on a telecommunications network.Network addresses are designed to be unique identifiers across the network, although some networks allow for local, private addresses, or locally administered addresses that may not be unique.

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
