What is a valid IPv4 address?

A valid IPv4 address consists of four octets (8-bit numbers) ranging from 0 to 255 separated by periods. Example: 172.16.1.26.

What defines a Class C IP address?

Class C addresses start with a first octet between 192 and 223. Examples: 192.15.5.55, 222.55.0.0, 223.16.5.0.

What defines a Class A IP address?

Class A networks have the first octet ranging from 1 to 126. Example: 114.0.0.0 includes 114.58.12.0, 114.0.0.15, 114.122.66.12.

What defines a Class B IP address?

Class B networks have a default subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 with first octets from 128 to 191. Examples: 191.168.2.15, 168.16.5.1, 129.0.0.1.
