Subnet calculator

Enter an IPv4 or IPv6 address in CIDR notation to calculate its network, address range, mask and size. Results include /31, /32 and IPv6 prefixes.

Good to know

What does /24 mean?+

The number after the slash is the length of the network prefix in bits. An IPv4 /24 leaves 8 host bits and contains 256 addresses. In a conventional broadcast subnet, 254 are usable host addresses.

Does IPv6 have a broadcast address?+

No. IPv6 uses multicast for functions that often use broadcast in IPv4. Its 128-bit address space also makes individual networks much larger.
