Class A network

A Class A network is a way of organizing large groups of computers so they can communicate efficiently. It uses a specific range of IP addresses, with the first part (octet) ranging from 1 to 126. This structure allows for many devices—up to about 16 million—within a single network. Class A networks are typically used by very large organizations or internet service providers to manage extensive systems. They provide a framework for routing data across the internet, ensuring that information reaches the right destination within massive networks.
