	Subnetwork - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It was originally introduced before the introduction of classful network numbers in IPv4, to allow a single site to have a number of local area networks.
		Even after the introduction of classful network numbers, subnetting continued to be useful, as it reduced the number of entries in the Internet-wide routing table (by hiding information about all the individual subnets inside a site).
		For example, giving the class A network 10.0.0.0 a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 would break it down into 256 sub-networks (10.0.0.0 to 10.0.255.0), and indicates that the first octet of the IP address shows the network address, the second one shows the subnet number and the last two show the host part.

	Classful network - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Classful networking is the name given to the first round of changes to the structure of the IP address in IPv4.
		The prototype Internet in 1982; note that all the networks (the ovals) have addresses which are single integers; the rectangles are switch.
		Classful networking was replaced by Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR), starting in about 1993, to solve this problem (and others).

	Classful network
		Classful networking is the original method of determining whether an IP address belongs in the same IP network as another IP address.
		The address mask, which is so commonly associated with an IP address today, was not required as the mask length was purely a function of the IP address.
		This resulted with some organisations receiving class A networks which has contributed to the IP address shortage[?].

	Cisco - Troubleshooting When BGP Routes Are Not Advertised
		When routes are announced using a basic network statement, the behavior of the network command varies depending on whether auto-summary is enabled or disabled.
		The minimum requirement for a prefix configured under the network command to be installed in a BGP table is to have a component route in the IP routing table.
		This network does not fall on the boundary of a Class B network (255.255.0.0).

		The network address defines the start of the IP address block and the subnet mask determines how large the block is. The subnet mask also determines which portion of the IP address is used to identify the network and which part of the IP address is used to identify the host or interface.
		Class B networks were for networks with fewer than 65,535 hosts, and Class A network were for networks with more than 65,535 or more hosts.
		Under Classless and Classful IP rules, within a subnet, the addresses with a host portion that is all zeroes or all ones have special meanings.

		Classful addressing consists of three different default classes of network addresses ranging from Class A to Class C. It also uses a default subnet mask related to each class of address (See Table 1.5).
		By using the first octet in the address to identify the class of network, the protocol assumes the address is classful and uses the default subnet mask shown previously in Table 1.5.
		In a classful environment, this would be a Class C subnet mask and would result in an invalid combination, because the first octet would belong to a Class A, whereas the subnet mask would belong to a Class C. However, in a classless environment, this is a valid grouping.

	Classful Addressing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Classful addressing, formally adopted as part of the Internet Protocol (IP) in RFC 791, was the Internet's first major addressing scheme.
		For example, the U.S. Department of Defense, a very large network, was assigned a Class A; the University of Maryland, a typical mid-sized network, was assigned a Class B network; and a small consulting firm I once worked for was assigned a Class C network.
		As a Class C, the first three bytes were fixed by IANA, and the last byte was assigned by the local network administrator.

		The IP network broadcast address is the address formed by setting all the host bits to 1 for a classful address.
		An example of a network broadcast address for the classful network ID 131.107.0.0/16 is 131.107.255.255.
		Network broadcasts are used to send packets to all hosts of a classful network, which listen for and process packets addressed to the network broadcast address.

	Classful vs Classless Addressing
		Originally, all IP addresses were classful – they belonged to Class A, B, C or D. Class D is for Multicast and is rarely used. Class E is reserved and is not currently used.
		Today routers route both classful and classless protocols. For example, RIP is classful, and both BGP4 and IS-IS is classless. In reality, Class addresses are converted to Classless for routing through the Internet, since BGP4 is used across the Internet backbone.
		There are 5 different address classes, where A, B, and C are the “primary” address classes, and they are the only ones you are likely to encounter.

	Subnetting (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		These smaller networks became known as subnets, and a standard scheme called subnetting was formalized in RFC 950.
		Different classful networks could have different subnet masks, but only a single subnet mask was allowed for each classful network.
		Likewise, a Class C could be broken down into 14 subnets of 14 addresses each, or 6 subnets of 30 each, depending on the requirements of the particular network.

	Chuck Semeria:
		Class A networks are now referred to as "/8s" (pronounced "slash eight" or just "eights") since they have an 8-bit network-prefix.
		Class E addresses have their leading four-bits set to 1-1-1-1 and are reserved for experimental use.
		CIDR eliminates the traditional concept of Class A, Class B, and Class C network addresses and replaces them with the generalized concept of a "network-prefix." Routers use the network-prefix, rather than the first 3 bits of the IP address, to determine the dividing point between the network number and the host number.

		Secondly a classful router assumes all parts of a classful network are contiguous.
		These specify network address ranges on a base+mask basis and any interface with an address included in such a range is configured into the specified area and both sends and receives OSPF updates.
		Since RIP is turned on for a whole classful network at once every interface with an address in that that range is included in RIP and is advertised.

	Understanding IP Addressing
		For this example, the network administrator must define a block of 8 (2 3) and have two unused subnets that can be reserved for future growth.
		Since this does not appear to be adequate to support additional growth, the network administrator elects to define a block of 126 (2 7 -2) host addresses and has 66 addresses on each subnet for future growth.
		A /16 network address with a /26 extended-network prefix permits 1024 subnets (2 10), each of which supports a maximum of 62 hosts (2 6 -2).

	Cotse - Connected: An Internet Encyclopedia - Restriction: Contiguous Subnets
		On the previous slide, I showed how incomming routes from different parts of the same classful network would all be assumed to have the same prefix length.
		Since the router receiving the information would itself be part of that classful network, it would be configured with the subnet mask for that network, and therefore be able to infer the prefix length for the rest of the classful network.
		In this case, it has no way of knowing the prefix length, since it isn't configured with the subnet mask, nor is the information provided by the older routing protocols.
