In the world of networks,
every device has a name,
An IP address
helps them play the game.
Network and host, we need to know,
Classful addressing makes the data flow!
Class A is for networks large,
One to one-twenty-six
is its range.
Eight network bits, twenty-four for host,
Two-five-five dot zero — that’s what we know the most!
Big networks, many hosts,
Class A takes the lead!
A, B, C, D,
E — remember the name!
IP addressing is the networking game!
Network bits, host bits,
understand the flow,
Classful IP addressing
— now you know!
Class B comes right after A,
One-twenty-eight to one-ninety-one is the range we say.
Sixteen network bits, sixteen for the host,
Two-five-five dot two-five-five — that’s the mask we know!
Class C is smaller,
clear and bright, One-ninety-two to two-twenty-three is right.
Twenty-four network bits, eight for the host,
Two-five-five dot two-five-five dot two-five-five — that’s its post!
A, B, C, D,
E — remember the name!
IP addressing is the networking game!
Network bits, host bits,
understand the flow, Classful IP addressing
— now you know!
Class D is for multicast communication,
Two-twenty-four to two-thirty-nine
— special destination. Class E is experimental,
that’s its role, Two-forty to two-fifty-five — reserved as a whole!
Class A
— 1 to 126,
Class B
— 128 to 191,
Class C — 192 to 223,
Class D — 224 to 239,
Class E — 240 to 255.
A for large, B for medium,
C for small — keep the rhythm!
D for multicast, E for experiment,
Classful IP — a concept permanent!
A, B, C, D,
E — now we know!
IP addressing makes the network flow!
Network and host, keep them in mind,
Classful addressing makes networking easy to find!
A, B, C, D,
E… Remember IP addressing easily!
From network bits to host bits too,
Classful IP — now you know what to do!
