CIDR gave rise to a new way of writing IP addresses known as CIDR notation, in which an IP address is followed by a suffix indicating the number of bits of the prefix. Some examples of CIDR notation are the addresses 192.0.2.0 / 24 for IPv4 and 2001:db8:: / 32 for IPv6.
For example, a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 (11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000 2) inverts to a wildcard mask of 0.0.0.255 (00000000.00000000.00000000.11111111 2). A wild card mask is a matching rule. [2] The rule for a wildcard mask is: 0 means that the equivalent bit must match; 1 means that the equivalent bit does not matter
This notation was introduced with Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR). [2] In IPv6 this is the only standards-based form to denote network or routing prefixes. For example, the IPv4 network 192.0.2.0 with the subnet mask 255.255.255.0 is written as 192.0.2.0 / 24 , and the IPv6 notation 2001:db8:: / 32 designates the address 2001:db8:: and ...
The slash in an IP address (e.g., 192.0.2.0/29) indicates the prefix size in CIDR notation. The number of addresses of a subnet may be calculated as 2 address size − prefix size, in which the address size is 128 for IPv6 and 32 for IPv4. For example, in IPv4, the prefix size/29 gives: 2 32–29 = 2 3 = 8 addresses.
The CIDR notation for this group is 224.0.0.0 / 4. [1] The group includes the addresses from 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255. The address range is divided into blocks each assigned a specific purpose or behavior. [2]
Originally designed in the 1980s, OSPF version 2 is defined in RFC 2328 (1998). [1] The updates for IPv6 are specified as OSPF version 3 in RFC 5340 (2008). [2] OSPF supports the Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) addressing model.

In the address allocation architecture of the Internet using CIDR and in large organizations, it is necessary to allocate address space efficiently. Subnetting may also enhance routing efficiency or have advantages in network management when subnetworks are administratively controlled by different entities in a larger organization.
