  • Page 76 RAD-80211-XD & RAD-80211-XD-WM User Manual, Appendix A With binary representation of the IP address the network class is represented by the first bits. The key factor is the number of “ones” before the first “zero”. The assignment of classes is shown in Table A-1. The empty cells in the table are not relevant to the network class and are already used for the network address.
