CIDR Notation / Network Prefix

 Classless Inter-Domain Routing -CIDR

=========================================================================
SID = Subnet ID, HID = Host ID, NID = Network ID


===============================================================

There is a simple scenario of CIDR,

192.240.10.0/28


1) Network id bit ?

     This is class C ip. So network id have first 3 octet in ip. It is 24 bits. NID = 24 bits

2) Subnet id bit ?

     CIDR = 28  = NID + SID = 24 +4 

     Then SID = 4 bits

3) Subnets ?

     We can find the subnet count by SID count 

     SID = 4 bits, So 2^4 = 16

     So there are 16 subnets

4) Host id bit ?

     All ip bits - (NID + SID)

    32-28 = 4

    4 hosts

5) Address count ?

    This depend on host id bits count,

    HID = 4, So 2^4 = 16

6) Host count ?

    NA = Network Address, BA = Broadcast Address

    All IP host bit Count - (NA +BA)

    16 -2 = 14

7) Subnet Mask ?

    we can find the subnet mask by adding value 1 for NID, SID and adding value 0 for HID.

    CIDR = NID + SID

    So that similar to find the subnet mask by adding value 1 CIDR and adding value 0 for            HID.

    Then,

    11111111.11111111.11111111.11110000

            255            255          255         240

    Subnet mask = 255.255.255.240
