IPv4 addresses are limited. So we need to reuse them.
First three subnets are reserved for private networks.
Different companies can use the same private networks and different public IP addresses.
Private addresses | Mask | Networks / Clients | |||
10.0.0.0 /8 | - | 10.255.255.255 | Class A | 255.0.0.0 | 1 network, 16.777.216 addresses |
172.16.0.0 /16 | - | 172.31.255.255 | Class B | 255.255.0.0 | 16 networks, 65536 addresses |
192.168.0.0 /24 | - | 192.168.255.255 | Class C | 255.255.255.0 | 256 networks, 256 adresses |
169.254.0.0/16 | - | 169.254.255.255 | Apipa/ Linklocal | ||
127.0.0.0/8 | - | 127.255.255.255 | Loopback |
