∙ 12y agoA class C network has a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 and can have 254 IP addresses, for example from 192.168.0.1-192.168.0.255 A class B network has a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 and can have 255 X 254 IP addresses, for example from 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.255.255

∙ 13y agoNetwork classes are all about the subnet mask. Class A networks have a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0, Class B 255.255.0.0, Class C 255.255.255.0. The subnet mask determines the portion of the ip address that is the network portion (i.e. what network it is on, like the 192.168.3.0 network for a class C mask), and the portion that is for the node (like the x.x.x.1-254 for a class C mask). So, a Class A network has a 255.0.0.0 subnet mask, and uses the first octet for the network address, and the last 3 octets for the node address, while a class B network has a 255.255.0.0 subnet mask, and uses the first and second octet for the network address, and the last 2 octects for the node address. Class A networks then have more available node ip addresses per network, while a Class B network has fewer node ip addresses per network, but then has more possible network id's.

∙ 14y agoNo real advantage to any of them, they are just the size of the address space:
C = 256 (xxx.xxx.xxx.0-255)
B = 256 x 256 (xxx.xxx.0-255.0-255)
A = 256 x 256 x 256 (xxx.0-255.0-255.0-255)

difference between ip address and class
There is no difference between using class a or an other
This address is for a class B network (128 - 191)
Since this is a Class C address, the default network mask is 255.255.255.0.Since this is a Class C address, the default network mask is 255.255.255.0.Since this is a Class C address, the default network mask is 255.255.255.0.Since this is a Class C address, the default network mask is 255.255.255.0.
Class B network
Class C
The IP address is of class C.
There are4 octets in an IP address as shown below:Octet1.Octet2.Octet3.Octet4Every IP class has different allocation of network and host ID.For class A, the network and host IDs' allocation is as follows:Network.Host.Host.HostFor class B, the network and host IDs' allocation is as follows:Network.Network.Host.HostFor class C, the network and host IDs' allocation is as follows:Network.Network.Network.HostYou may go to the following link get more info on IP address classes and their IDs:www.iphow.x10hosting.com
In a Class B range, the first network address would be 128.0.0.0 and the last network address would be 191.255.0.0 Class B addresses are assigned to medium-sized to large-sized networks with up to 65,534 hoasts per network.
