IP Address & Subnet Calculator

๐ŸŒ IP Address Subnet Calculator

Introduction

Subnetting is essential for efficient IP address management and network organization. The IP Address Subnet Calculator helps you break down IP ranges, calculate subnet masks, and identify network details quickly and accuratelyโ€”making subnetting easy for everyone.


Why Use an IP Address Subnet Calculator?

Manually calculating subnets can be time-consuming and prone to errors. This calculator helps you:

  • โœ… Quickly determine network and broadcast addresses
  • ๐Ÿ“Š Calculate usable IP address ranges
  • ๐Ÿง  Understand subnet masks in decimal and binary
  • ๐Ÿ” Validate CIDR notations and subnetting schemes
  • ๐Ÿš€ Plan and manage networks more efficiently

Whether designing new networks or troubleshooting existing ones, this tool is essential.


How It Works

Enter:

  1. IP address (IPv4)
  2. Subnet mask or CIDR prefix (e.g., /24)

The calculator provides:

  • Network address
  • Broadcast address
  • First and last usable IP addresses
  • Number of hosts per subnet
  • Subnet mask in decimal and binary
  • Wildcard mask

Example

  • IP Address: 192.168.5.14
  • Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.192 (or /26)

Results:

  • Network Address: 192.168.5.0
  • Broadcast Address: 192.168.5.63
  • Usable IP Range: 192.168.5.1 โ€“ 192.168.5.62
  • Hosts per Subnet: 62

Who Should Use This?

  • ๐Ÿ’ป Network administrators and engineers
  • ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐ŸŽ“ IT students learning subnetting
  • ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ IT professionals managing IP networks
  • ๐Ÿ”ง Anyone needing accurate subnet calculations

Key Features

  • ๐Ÿงฎ Precise IP subnet calculations
  • ๐Ÿ“ฑ Easy to use on all devices
  • ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Shows both decimal and binary subnet masks
  • ๐Ÿ“Š Provides detailed network information
  • โšก Speeds up network planning and troubleshooting

Tips for Best Use

  • Ensure your IP address and subnet mask inputs are correct
  • Use CIDR notation for concise subnetting
  • Double-check calculations before applying network changes
  • Combine this tool with IP management systems for best results

Final Thoughts

The IP Address Subnet Calculator simplifies complex subnetting tasks, helping you plan, configure, and troubleshoot networks with confidence.
