Great article Vishalbhai, it is a must read for people like me to clear the basics of IP addresses again.

Anyways you may want to look at following typos

“…combinations per octet is 28 or 256″ here it should be 2^8

“…you get 232 or a possible 4,294,967,296 unique values” here it should be 2^32

But all in all a nice one. Already shared it in our company’s Microblog.

Also would like to know how would “Shared IP” may impact this? It may slow down this fear somewhat?
