Class B private networks use the IP address range from 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255. This range is reserved for private use, meaning these addresses are not routable on the public internet. Devices within a Class B private network can communicate with each other without needing public IP addresses, facilitating local networking.
The IP address 10.255.255.255 is a private IP address used in local networks. It is part of the Class A private IP range (10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255) defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). This address is typically used for network configurations and is not routable on the public internet, meaning it cannot be directly accessed from external networks.
No, 255.255.0.255 is not a valid Class A address. In fact, it is a broadcast address used in Class B networks. Class A addresses range from 1.0.0.0 to 126.255.255.255, and the highest address in this range is 126.255.255.255. Additionally, the address 255.255.255.255 is reserved for the limited broadcast address, not for any specific class.
Public network is where the networked computers are not all trusted. Private network is where all computers are trusted. EG. Public network: cyber cafe. EG Private network: Your work or home network.
Usually a gateway or proxy is responsible for hiding internal networks.
The IP address 133.66.155.189 falls under Class B. Class B addresses range from 128.0.0.0 to 191.255.255.255, and they are used for medium to large networks. The first octet, 133, indicates that it belongs to this class. In Class B, the first two octets are used for the network address, while the last two are used for host addresses.

First octet rule for each class:Class A: 0xxxxxxxClass B: 10xxxxxxClass C: 110xxxxxClass A range is 0 - 1270.0.0.0 and 127.0.0.0 are not "routable" IP addresses. One defines all networks and the other is the loopback. We have a total of 126 usable networks and 16,777,214 usable hostaddresses per network. There are even less if we don't count the private address of 10.0.0.0 (RFC 1918).Class B range is 128 - 191There are 16,384 total networks in this class; that's including the private addresses of 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.0.0 (RFC 1918). There are a total of 65,534 usable host addresses per network.Class C range is 192 - 223There are 2,097,152 total networks in this class; that's including the private addresses of 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.0 (RFC 1918). There are 254 usable hosts addresses per network.
The IP address 131.194.192.3 falls within Class B. Class B addresses range from 128.0.0.0 to 191.255.255.255 and are typically used for medium to large networks. In this class, the first two octets (131.194) are used for the network portion, while the last two octets represent the host portion.
IP addresses are divided into five IP classes:IP address class AIP address class BIP address class CIP address class DIP address class E
IP address is a private Class A address10.0.0.0 for very large networks which can hold as many as 16 million computers. These are addresses that IBM, Geneal Electric and Apple use. The first 3 numbers of the class A IP address is 126. Then they use the 10.0.0.0 to set up private computers within the company. Another example is the IP address 192 thru 223, these are Class C networks which are for small networks. Then within that address there is 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.0 to set up private networks within that class.
In general, 192.168.1.1 is an example of an internet protocol (IP) address under the IP Version 4 (IPv4) addressing structure. An IP address is used to identify a particular computer on a network. More specifically, 192.168.1.1 is a commonly used private network address; it is in the smallest of three groups of IP addresses specifically reserved for use only on private networks, such as local area networks (LANs) and wireless local area networks (WLANs).
It is unlikely that you will find the IP address 192.168.250.10 on the internet because the .10 represents the number of host connected to an individual network. Also, IEEE recommends that the following IP addresses be used for private networks: 10.0.0.0 through 10.255.255.255 Class A 172.16.0.0 through 172.31.255.255 Class B 192.168.0.0 through 192.168.255.255 Class C
