[nflug] CIDR

[Darin Perusich]

breaking up an ip address block, usually Class C into smaller chunks. 
ISP's generally will provide customers with a range of IP addresses so 
they can run services and a number of machines, i.e http, smtp, dns, 
etc. it doesn't make sense for a provider to give each customer a Class 
C of public address space when they only need 2 IP's.
