IPv4 ADDRESSING
IPv4
• Internet Protocol addressing version 4 (IPv4) is the
basis of Internet.
• Every connected host has a four octet address
expressed in decimal:
AAA.BBB.CCC.DDD
For example: 66.102.7.104 (Google)
• A host can send a packet to an IP address and it will be
delivered to the correct destination.
CLASSFUL ADDRESSING
• Under IPv4 addressing scheme (classful
addressing), the class of the network may be A, B
or C. The class effects how the four number IP
address is interpreted. For all classes, the last
byte is limited between: 1 – 254
- 0: reserved for network address
- 255: reserved for broadcast address

A
• CLASS A (large network): the first byte identifies the network and
the last 3 bytes represent an address range for hosts on the
network.
Byte 1: 1 – 126
Byte 2 and 3: 0 – 255
No. of hosts (max): 16,646,144
• CLASS B (medium network): the first two bytes identify the
network and the last 2 bytes represent an address for hosts on the
network.
Byte 1: 128 – 191
Byte 2 and 3: 0 – 255
No. of hosts (max): 65,024
• CLASS C (small network): the first three bytes identify network and
the last byte represent an address for hosts on the network.
Byte 1: 192 – 223
Byte 2 and 3: 0 – 255
No. of hosts (max): 254 hosts
• CLASS D: Byte 1: 224 – 239
• CLASS E: Byte 1: 240 – 255
• Broadcast Address: broadcast address is
intended to go to every host on the network.
(host address bytes are replaced with 255 (all
ones)
Example: Class B network with a network
address of 174.148.0.0 would have a
broadcast address of 174.148.255.255
• Network Address: is formed by replacing all host bytes
with 0.
Example: Class B IP address of 174.148.10.5, has
network address of 174.148.0.0
• Network Mask (netmask): a host must know if a
received packet relates to the network to which the
host is a member. Membership of a network is
determined using netmask defined on every network
host.
netmask = all network bits set to 1, all hosts bits
set to 0
Example: Class A = 255.0.0.0, Class B = 255.255.0.0
5 Different Classes of IP Address

1.0.0.0 to 127.255.255.255
CLASS B
128.0.0.0 to 191.255.255.255
CLASS C
192.0.0.0 to 223.255.255.255
CLASS D
224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255
CLASS E
240.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255
