Explain what the number 0 and the number 255 are used for in IPv4 addressing?

Number 0 is used at the end of an IPv4 address for network identifiers and number 255 is used at end of an IPv4 for broadcast addresses.


How many possible IP addresses are there?

IP addresses range from 0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255, with the numbers 0-255 represented in each of the four segments of the address. This results in a total of 4,294,967,296 possible addresses. Note that many addresses are reserved for private or multicast use. Therefore, the actual number of available addresses is much lower than the 4.3 billion theoretical addresses.


Which number system is used for addressing?

number addressing (NA) is the Internet addressing system which is similar to letter addressing system.

How many ip addresses on a subnet?

Use the formula 2n - 2 to find the number of clients available in a subnet. The 'n' refers to the number of bits available for client addresses, and thus will vary depending on the starting network type (class A, B, or C). If you are using the 0th subnet (as in Cisco routers) then the formula is 2n


Why are most addresses in class A IP address wasted?

A class A subnet has 24 bits worth of addressing, which is enough for almost 17 million individual devices. Most entities have only a small fraction of this number of devices, so most of the addresses are not used.
