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.
The network address and subnet mask of the interface, along with the interface type and number, are entered into the routing table as a directly connected network. A remote network is a network that can only be reached by sending the packet to another router. Routing table entries to remote networks may be either dynamic or static.
A network and wildcard mask combination of 1.1.1.1 0.0.0.0 would match an interface configured exactly with 1.1.1.1 only, and nothing else. Wildcard masks are used in situations where subnet masks may not apply. For example, when two affected hosts fall in different subnets, the use of a wildcard mask will group them together.
Though network documentation can be done by hand, large organizations must use network documentation software, including diagramming tools, inventory management, and circuit and cable traces. Examples include draw.io, Graphical Networks' netTerrain, [4] Microsoft Visio, [5] Docusnap, Gliffy, [6] Opnet's Netmapper, and XIA Configuration. [7]
Distributed software must be designed to be partition-tolerant, that is, even after the network is partitioned, it still works correctly. For example, in a network with multiple subnets where nodes A and B are located in one subnet and nodes C and D are in another, a partition occurs if the network switch device between the two subnets fails ...

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.
There are several different non-equivalent definitions of "subnet" and this article will use the definition introduced in 1970 by Stephen Willard, [1] which is as follows: If = and = are nets in a set from directed sets and , respectively, then is said to be a subnet of (in the sense of Willard or a Willard–subnet [1]) if there exists a monotone final function: such that = ().
