Because the industry retired the old classful addressing system, theclassless inter-domain routing (CIDR) systemreplaced it. This results in several classes of IP addresses. For the 172 range, however, there are 16,777,214 IP addresses available. The range can be divided into smaller subnets to...
Understanding IPv4 addressing An IPv4 address is a series of four eight-bit binary numbers separated by a decimal point. Although you may use any numbering system to represent a unique 32-bit number, most commonly you see IP addresses expressed in dot-decimal notation. ...
when they designed the IPv4 addressing scheme. You're going to reserve an entire class A network, with over 16 million addresses, for a loopback function? I mean, I can see reserving 127.0.0.1 for loopback, but 127.0.0.2 through 127.255.255.254? Was that really necessary?

After changes to the addressing system, the traditional classful network system has been seen as obsolete for some time; however, experts show how some network administrators still “trade” or utilize class A network addresses or otherwise deal with the infrastructure set up by the in...
