Note:
All of the above listed address ranges (compliant with RFC 1918) are not available on the Internet, i.e.
they are reserved for private use. If you do not have an official IP address, only use these private
address ranges!

Notes on the Subnet mask

The program only allows valid subnet masks. A valid subnet mask must consist of a contiguous series
of 1 bits followed by 0 bits. At least the MSB (Bit 32) must be 1 and LSB (Bit 0) 0 in order for the mask
to be valid. See also the previous chapter IP Classes.

Examples of invalid subnet masks:

Binary format:

255.255.255.255

1111 1111.1111 1111. 1111 1111.1111 1111

0.0.0.0

0000 0000.0000 0000.0000 0000.0000 0000

255.255.15.0

1111 1111.1111 1111.0000 1111.0000 0000

*MSB: Far left in the table above

*LSB: Far right bit
