When you configure this CIDR block in BGP, you can express the network as:
Again, if this network needs to be configured into OSPF, you will need to apply a wild-card mask:
There follows a table which summarises the subnet mask and wild mask for a particular prefix.
The following table lists the number of subnets which are available per prefix size.
A host address which has all bits set to zero represents the subnetwork and is reserved. A host address
which has all bits set to one is the broadcast address of the subnetwork and is reserved. Therefore,
each prefix has two available host addresses than is theoretically possible.
Notice that for a /31 network mask it isn’t actually possible to have a useable host address –there are
only two bits, bit 0 which represents the network, and bit 1 which is the broadcast.
There is no limitation on the network addresses possible (unlike in the old classful Internet days).
