This subnet calculator turns an IPv4 address and a CIDR prefix into the full structure of a subnet. An IPv4 address is 32 bits, usually written as four dot-separated octets like 192.168.1.10, and a CIDR prefix such as /24 splits those 32 bits into a network part (the leading bits, fixed for every host in the subnet) and a host part (the remaining bits, unique to each device). This calculator takes an address and a prefix length and derives the network address, broadcast address, subnet mask, wildcard mask and the range of usable host addresses, along with the IP class and total address count.

The size of a subnet is set by the prefix: a /n block holds 2^(32−n) addresses, of which two are reserved — the network address (all host bits 0, naming the subnet) and the broadcast address (all host bits 1, reaching every host). So a /24 has 2^8 = 256 addresses and 254 usable hosts, a /25 has 128 addresses and 126 usable hosts, and each extra prefix bit halves the block. As a worked example, 192.168.1.10/24 gives a network of 192.168.1.0, a broadcast of 192.168.1.255, a 255.255.255.0 mask, a 0.0.0.255 wildcard mask, and a usable host range of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254.

Subnetting is how networks are carved into manageable, secure segments — separating departments, sizing VLANs, planning address allocation and writing firewall and routing rules. The wildcard mask (the bitwise inverse of the subnet mask) is what Cisco access-control lists and OSPF use to match ranges of addresses. The /31 and /32 prefixes are special cases: /31 is used for point-to-point links with two usable addresses and no broadcast, and /32 describes a single host.
