Class A: From the table above you see that there are 126 class A
networks. These networks consist of 16,777,214 possible IP
addresses that can be assigned to devices and computers. This
type of allocation is generally given to very large networks such
as multi-national companies.
Loopback: This is the special 127.0.0.0 network that is reserved
as a loopback to your own computer. These addresses are used
for testing and debugging of your programs or hardware.
Class D: The IP addresses in this class are reserved for a service called
Multicast.
Class E: The IP addresses in this class are reserved for experimental use.
A 10.0.0.0 10.255.255.255
B 172.16.0.0 172.31.255.255
C 192.168.0.0 192.168.255.255
