Ths is an Internet Protocol (IPv4) Subnet Chart. You can use this to quickly look up how your might need to subnet your network. At the bottom there is a quick how-to on calculating subnets.

For more information on subnetting, see RFC 1817 and RFC 1812.

Class address ranges:

  • Class A = 1.0.0.0 to 126.0.0.0
  • Class B = 128.0.0.0 to 191.255.0.0
  • Class C = 192.0.1.0 to 223.255.255.0

 

Reserved address ranges for private (non-routed) use (see RFC 1918):

  • 10.0.0.0 -> 10.255.255.255
  • 172.16.0.0 -> 172.31.255.255
  • 192.168.0.0 -> 192.168.255.255

 

Other reserved addresses:

  • 127.0.0.0 is reserved for loopback and IPC on the local host
  • 224.0.0.0 -> 239.255.255.255 is reserved for multicast addresses

 

Chart notes:

  • Number of Subnets – “( )” Refers to the number of effective subnets, since the use of subnet numbers of all 0s or all 1s is highly frowned upon and RFC non-compliant.
  • Number of Hosts – Refers to the number of effective hosts, excluding the network and broadcast address.

Supernetting (CIDR) Chart

  • CIDR – Classless Inter-Domain Routing.
  • Note: The Number of Class C networks must be contiguous.
    For example, 192.169.1.0/22 represents the following block of addresses:
    192.169.1.0, 192.169.2.0, 192.169.3.0 and 192.169.4.0.
