IP Subnet Mask Quick Cheat Sheet (https://asktheadmin.wordpress.com/2008/01/09/ip-subnet-mask-quick-cheat-sheet-2/)
So I get asked on a regular basis how many addresses can i get from a /24 subnet or what does 255.255.255.0 mean.
Let me break it down for you real quick like:
When you use 255.255.255.0 as your subnet you are limiting yourself to a network containing all the same ip’s except for the last number. Like 192.168.1.0 where the 0 changes. And using 255.255.0.0 Would limit you to the last two digits changing like 192.168.0.0 . Are you with me? It gets a little more complex with different subnets but here is a quick breakdown for you:
