A network is written as ``` -address/prefix-length → 10.0.0.0/24 +address/prefix-length → 10.0.0.0/24 ``` The *prefix length* (the number after the slash) tells routers how many of the 32 bits belong to the network portion: -* `10.0.0.0/24` → 24 network bits + 8 host bits → **256** addresses (254 usable) -* `10.0.0.0/30` → 30 network bits + 2 host bits → **4** addresses (2 usable) +* `10.0.0.0/24` → 24 network bits + 8 host bits → **256** addresses (254 usable) +* `10.0.0.0/30` → 30 network bits + 2 host bits → **4** addresses (2 usable) CIDR lets ISPs advertise aggregated “supernets” such as `203.0.113.0/22` instead of listing a thousand individual /24 routes—shrinking global routing tables and conserving address space. ---- - ## CIDR → IP Range Converter Paste any block—say `192.168.15.64/27`—into the calculator.
