Understanding Classless Inter-Domain Routing

Classless Inter-domain Routing (CIDR) is a method introduced in 1993 by the Internet Engineering Task Force to improve IP address allocation by replacing the classful addressing architecture. CIDR uses a slash notation to indicate the number of bits allocated for the network part of an IP address, allowing for more efficient subnetting. It enables Internet Service Providers to allocate varying amounts of addresses to users, with examples such as 200.200.200.200/24 and 190.10.20.30/28.

Classless Inter-domain routing

Improves the allocation of IP


addresses.
• A method for allocating IP addresses.
• The internet Engineering task force
introduced CIDR in 1993.
• To re[place the previous addressing
architecture of classfull.
Example
[Link]
This belong to
Class C
How many bit representing network part and host part?

NETID 8 NETID 8 NETID 8 HOSTID 8

[Link]
To represent this network method in CIDR,we use subnet mask
It tells number of ones are masked…….like 1 representing network bits and 0
representing 0 bits
[Link] in binary form
11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000
Number of 1 are 24 and number of zero are 8
We represet in some other way and that way
of representation is class CIDR way

CIDR METHOD
[Link]/24
CIDR
• Basically the method that ISPs use to allocate
an amount of addresses to a company, a
home
• Ex [Link]/24
• [Link]/28 it means 28 bits are masked
and rest of bits are representing 0 (host)
• The slash notation (/) means how many bits
are turned on (1s).
Subnet Mask CIDR Value
[Link] /8

[Link] /9
[Link] /10
[Link] /11
[Link] /12
Subnetting
• How large network divided into small network
