RE: IP Address Range - Class D and E

They were originally defined by simple binary....

Class A addresses (0-127) begin with '0'
Class B addresses (128-191) begin with '1'
Class C addresses (192-223) begin with '11'
Class D addresses (224-239) begin with '111'
Class E addresses (240-255) begin with '1111'

So some of your references are incorrect.

Subject: IP Address Range - Class D and E

Hi there

I'm finding different info as to which range of IPs is Class D and E.

Here are the 2 diffenret sets of info on the net:

1) Class D - 224-239
Class E - 240-255

2) Class D - 224-247
Class E - 248-255

Which one is correct? Based on the first octect definition, Item 1 seems
right, but then why they mention item 2 on the net?

Also, is there such thing as Public and Private IPs in Class D (or E)?

Thanks

Dave
