2. Subnet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subnet

   Subnet. A subnetwork, or subnet, is a logical subdivision of an IP network. [1] : 1, 16 The practice of dividing a network into two or more networks is called subnetting . Computers that belong to the same subnet are addressed with an identical group of its most-significant bits of their IP addresses. This results in the logical division of an ...

3. IP address - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address

   An Internet Protocol address ( IP address) is a numerical label such as 192.0.2.1 that is assigned to a device connected to a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication. [1] [2] IP addresses serve two main functions: network interface identification, and location addressing .

4. Mask (computing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mask_(computing)

   To configure IP addresses on interfaces, masks start with 255 and have the large values on the left side: for example, IP address 203.0.113.129 with a 255.255.255.224 mask. Masks for IP ACLs are the reverse: for example, mask 0.0.0.255. This is sometimes called an inverse mask or a wildcard mask. When the value of the mask is broken down into ...

6. Wildcard mask - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildcard_mask

   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 ...

7. Classful network - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classful_network

   Thus, for a Class C address with 8 bits available in the host field, the maximum number of hosts is 254. Today, IP addresses are associated with a subnet mask. This was not required in a classful network because the mask was implied by the address itself; any network device would inspect the first few bits of the IP address to determine the ...
