IP Addresses

The Dell Networking OS supports IP version 4 (as described in RFC 791), classful routing, and variable length

subnet masks (VLSM).

With VLSM, you can configure one network with different masks. Supernetting, which increases the number

of subnets, is also supported. To subnet, you add a mask to the IP address to separate the network and host

portions of the IP address.

At its most basic level, an IP address is 32-bits composed of network and host portions and represented in

dotted decimal format. For example, 00001010110101100101011110000011 is represented as 10.214.87.131.

For more information about IP addressing, refer to RFC 791, Internet Protocol.
