Direct answers
What is the IP Subnet Calculator?
The IP Subnet Calculator is an online tool that calculate network, broadcast, host range, and subnet mask from CIDR notation.
What formula does the IP Subnet Calculator use?
This calculator uses the rule: Network = IP AND mask. Enter your values in the tool above to apply it to your numbers.
How does the IP Subnet Calculator work?
Enter an IPv4 address with prefix length (e.g. 10.0.0.0/8). We compute network and broadcast addresses, usable host range, subnet mask, and wildcard mask.
Formula Used
The equation below is what this calculator applies. Variable definitions follow when symbols are used.
Equation
Network = IP AND mask
Additional rules
- broadcast = network OR ~mask
- usable hosts = 2^(32−prefix) − 2 (except /31–/32)
Worked Example: 192.168.1.0/24
Sample inputs and the results this calculator produces for the scenario below.
Inputs
- CIDR
- 192.168.1.0/24
Results
- Subnet mask
- 255.255.255.0
- Usable hosts
- 254
/24 leaves 8 host bits — 256 addresses, 254 usable hosts.

How does the IP subnet calculator work?
CIDR prefix length defines how many bits are fixed for the network. Usable hosts exclude network and broadcast addresses except on /31 and /32.
