Wildcard: 00000000.00011111.11111111.11111111
The first 11 bits identify the network. The remaining 21 bits identify addresses inside it.
First subdivision
Dividing this network into 4 equal blocks produces:
0.0.0.0/13— 524,286 usable hosts0.8.0.0/13— 524,286 usable hosts0.16.0.0/13— 524,286 usable hosts0.24.0.0/13— 524,286 usable hosts
Continue working with /11
What this result means
A /11 IPv4 network contains 2,097,152 consecutive addresses. The network and broadcast addresses are reserved in traditional LAN use, leaving 2,097,150 usable host addresses.
Use the wildcard mask in access lists and routing policy where a device expects inverse mask bits. Always verify vendor syntax before applying generated values to production equipment.
