Interactive CIDR Calculator
Enter any IPv4 address with a CIDR prefix (e.g., 192.168.1.0/24 or 10.0.0.0/16) to inspect netmask breakdown, usable IP range, host capacity, and wildcard mask:

CIDR Subnetting Theory
Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) replaces legacy Class A, B, and C network designation by appending a slash suffix (e.g. /24) indicating how many leading bits of an IP address belong to the network prefix.
/N, the total number of IP addresses is 2(32 - N). The number of usable hosts is 2(32 - N) - 2 (subtracting 1 for Network Address and 1 for Broadcast Address).Common Subnet Mask Table
| CIDR Prefix | Subnet Mask | Total Addresses | Usable Hosts |
|---|---|---|---|
| /24 | 255.255.255.0 | 256 | 254 |
| /16 | 255.255.0.0 | 65,536 | 65,534 |
| /30 | 255.255.255.252 | 4 | 2 (Point-to-Point Link) |
| /32 | 255.255.255.255 | 1 | 1 (Single Host) |
