IP Subnet Calculator

Enter any IPv4 address and CIDR prefix and get the complete subnet picture: network and broadcast addresses, subnet mask and wildcard, first and last usable host, host counts, address class — plus the mask in binary so you can see where the network bits end.

How to use

  1. Enter an IPv4 address (e.g. 192.168.1.10).
  2. Enter the CIDR prefix length (e.g. 24 for /24, i.e. 255.255.255.0).
  3. Press Calculate and read the full subnet breakdown, including the binary mask.

Examples

Input
192.168.1.10 /26
Network · Broadcast
192.168.1.0 · 192.168.1.63
Usable range
192.168.1.1 — 192.168.1.62 (62 hosts)

Supported formats

  • IPv4 dotted-quad addresses with CIDR prefixes /0 through /32.
  • /31 (point-to-point, RFC 3021) and /32 (single host) edge cases handled correctly.

Privacy

This tool runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you enter or open is sent anywhere. Privacy policy.

Limitations

  • IPv4 only — use the IPv6 Subnet Calculator for IPv6 prefixes.
  • It computes the subnet containing the given address; to plan several subnets of different sizes, use the VLSM Calculator.

FAQ

How many usable hosts are in a /24?

254. A /24 has 2⁸ = 256 addresses, minus the network and broadcast addresses. In general usable hosts = 2^(32−prefix) − 2.

What is a wildcard mask?

The inverse of the subnet mask (255.255.255.0 → 0.0.0.255), used in Cisco ACLs and OSPF statements. This calculator shows it for every subnet.

Why does /31 show 2 usable hosts?

RFC 3021 allows /31 subnets on point-to-point links with no network/broadcast reservation — both addresses are usable. Standard subnets subtract two.
