What is CIDR?  Give an example.

What will be an ideal response?


CIDR is Classless Interdomain Routing which is an address notation scheme that specifies the
number of masked bits in an IP address/subnet mask combination. Instead of using standard notation for subnet masks, with CIDR you can simply list the number of masked binary bits. The subnet mask 255.255.255.224, for example, has a total of 27 masked bits (eight in each of the first three octets and three in the last octet). In CIDR notation, you would write the network address 192.168.6.0 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.224 as 192.168.6.0/27.
