The aim of the project is to configure small-scale networks.
- The first IP address of the subnet is the address of the network.
- The last IP address of the subnet is the broadcast.
- IP addresses of neighboring networks must not overlap.
- IP-addresses for communication with itself:
- from 127.0.0.1 to 127.255.255.254.
- Private IP addresses (without access to the Internet):
- from 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255
- from 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255
- from 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255.
- Other IP addresses are public (with access to the Internet).
- In the routing table, default or 0.0.0.0/0 matches everything.
- The router has a different mask for each subnet.
