How it works
- Type an address with a prefix (192.168.1.10/24), with a mask (192.168.1.10 255.255.255.0), or on its own.
- Read off the network, the broadcast and the range you can actually assign.
- One address per line if you have several.
- To carve it up, choose a smaller prefix to split into.
Frequently asked questions
- Why are there two fewer usable hosts than addresses?
- The first address in a block names the network and the last is the broadcast, so neither can be given to a machine. A /24 has 256 addresses and 254 usable ones.
- What about a /31?
- It is the exception, and it is called out. A /31 is a point-to-point link: both addresses are usable and there is no broadcast, which is why it is used between routers. A /32 is a single host.
- Will it take a mask like 255.0.255.0?
- No, and it says so. A mask has to be a run of ones followed by a run of zeros; anything else is not a subnet mask, however plausible it looks.
- Does it do IPv6?
- Not yet. IPv6 subnetting is mostly a matter of counting nibbles and rarely needs a calculator in the same way, so this is IPv4.
- Is anything sent to a server?
- No. It runs in your browser, so what you paste stays on your computer.
