Address class division An IP address is divided into two parts: networks and hosts. The left-most part of the address denotes the network. The right-most part of the address denotes the host address on the network. The subnet mask denotes which part of the IP address responds to the network and which part of the IP address represents the unique host on the network. See Table B-1 for examples of addresses that are broken into networks and the number of devices that each can support.
