  2. IPv4 shared address space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv4_shared_address_space

    If an ISP deploys a CGN and uses private Internet address space [2] (networks 10.0.0.0 / 8, 172.16.0.0 / 12, 192.168.0.0 / 16) to connect their customers, there is a risk that customer equipment using an internal network in the same range will stop working.

  3. Wildcard mask - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildcard_mask

    A network and wildcard mask combination of 1.1.1.1 0.0.0.0 would match an interface configured exactly with 1.1.1.1 only, and nothing else. Wildcard masks are used in situations where subnet masks may not apply. For example, when two affected hosts fall in different subnets, the use of a wildcard mask will group them together.

  4. Subnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subnet

    For example, 198.51.100.0 / 24 is the prefix of the Internet Protocol version 4 network starting at the given address, having 24 bits allocated for the network prefix, and the remaining 8 bits reserved for host

  5. IP address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address

    For example, an IPv4 address and its subnet mask may be 192.0.2.1 and 255.255.255.0, respectively. The CIDR notation for the same IP address and subnet is 192.0.2.1 / 24, because the first 24 bits of the IP address indicate the network and subnet.

  6. Link-local address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link-local_address

    The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has reserved the IPv4 address block 169.254.0.0 / 16 (169.254.0.0 – 169.254.255.255) for link-local addressing. [1] The entire range may be used for this purpose, except for the first 256 and last 256 addresses (169.254.0.0 / 24 and 169.254.255.0 / 24), which are reserved for future use and must not be selected by a host using this dynamic ...

  7. 0.0.0.0 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/0.0.0.0

    IANA, who allocate IP addresses globally, have allocated the single IP address 0.0.0.0 [1] to RFC 1122 section 3.2.1.3. It is named as "This host on this network". RFC 1122 refers to 0.0.0.0 using the notation {0,0}. It prohibits this as a destination address in IPv4 and only allows it as a source address under specific circumstances.

  8. Network administrator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_administrator

    The role of the network administrator can vary significantly depending on an organization's size, location, and socioeconomic considerations. Some organizations work on a user-to-technical support ratio, [1] [2] [3] Network administrators are often involved in proactive work. This type of work will often include: [citation needed]

  9. Zero one infinity rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_one_infinity_rule

    The Zero one infinity (ZOI) rule is a rule of thumb in software design proposed by early computing pioneer Willem van der Poel. [1] It argues that arbitrary limits on the number of instances of a particular type of data or structure should not be allowed.
