The notation "192.168.1.0/24" represents a specific range of IP addresses used in computer networks. The "192.168.1.0" part is the base address, while the "/24" indicates that the first 24 bits are fixed for the network, allowing for 256 possible addresses (from 192.168.1.0 to 192.168.1.255). This range is commonly used in private networks, meaning it is not routable on the public internet. In a typical home or office setup, devices like computers, smartphones, and printers can be assigned IP addresses from this range. This helps them communicate with each other within the local network, ensuring efficient data transfer and resource sharing without interference from external
