: The Internet is a class C network.

The Internet uses the IP addressing scheme, and while some people have
been _assigned_ Class C network numbers, there are networks of every class
connected.

On a class A network, the administrator of said network has the authority
to use any address between K.0.0.0 and K.255.255.255 on his or her
network.

On a class B network, the administrator of that network has the right to
use only addresses between K.L.0.0 and K.L.255.255.

On a class C network, he or she can only use K.L.M.0 through K.L.M.255.

What this allows is a few big networks (A's), a bunch of midsized
networks (B's), and a bunch of small networks (C's).

HTH. HAND.
