What is the range of address of the 100th block of Class A
IP Address:
An IP address is an identifier or label used to identify a machine on the internet or a particular network. Each of the devices on the internet must have an IP address for identification.
IPv4 is the first version of Internet Protocol that uses a 32-bit address and this protocol is most widely used.
Total number of IP address supported by IPv4 = 232
The netmask and subnet mask is used to divide the IP address.
Classful Addressing:
In classful addressing, an IP address is related to a class and we need to purchase a class of the IP addresses as per the requirement.
Address class:
Class A:
The range of the first octet: 0 to 127
Subnet mask = 255.0.0.0
The first bit of the first octet is used to identify the class and always set to zero.
Here, the first 8 bits are used for network id, and the last 24 bits are used for host id.
The first block of class A address is = 0.0.0.0
The second block of class A address is = 1.0.0.0
The 100th block of class A address is = 99.0.0.0
The first address of the 100th block of class A is = 99.0.0.0
The last address of the 100th block of class A is = 99.255.255.255
The range of address of the 100th block of Class A is = 99.0.0.0 to 99.255.255.255
