47 48 The disadvantage to using a network address from RFC 1918 is that you may have to change your address in the future if you directly connect your full network to the Internet and wish to make all of the systems on the network accessible from the Internet. There are some advantages to choosing a private network address: • It's easy. You do not have to apply for an official address or get anyone's approval. • It's friendly. You save address space for those who need to connect to the Internet.
Table 2-1. 255 Host address range In Table 2-1, the first row describes a subnet with a subnet number that is all zeros (the first four bits of the fourth byte are all set to 0). The last row in the table describes a subnet with a subnet number that is all ones (the first four bits of the fourth byte are all set to 1). Originally, the RFCs implied that you should not use subnet numbers of all zeros or all ones. However, RFC 1812, Requirements for IP Version 4 Routers, makes it clear that subnets of all zeros and all ones are legal and should be supported by all routers.
It works by converting the source address of datagrams leaving your network from your private address to your official address. Address translation has several advantages: • It conserves IP addresses. Most network connections are between systems on the same enterprise network. Only a small percentage of systems need to connect to the Internet at any one time. Therefore, far fewer official IP addresses are needed than the total number of systems on an enterprise network. NAT makes it possible to use a large address space from RFC 1918 for configuring the enterprise network while using only a small official address space for Internet connections.
