Class C IP address In Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4), a unicast address in the range 192.0.0.1 to 233.255.255.254. Class C addresses are identified by a beginning set of 3 bits in the binary sequence 110. The next 21 bits identify the network, with 2,097,154 networks (221) theoretically possible. As addresses 0 and 2,097,151 are reserved, 2,097,152 network addresses remain available for assignment. As the specific host on the network is identified in bits 24 through 31, as many as 254 (28 – 2) hosts can be supported per network. (Host addresses 0 and 255 are reserved.) Class C addresses are reserved for smaller networks such as LANs. The vast majority of end users make use of Class C addresses. See also binary notation, bit, host, IPv4, LAN, network, and unicast. |
