IPv6 CIDR range for 2001:db8::/78

Calculate the network address, final address, mask, and exact address capacity of any IPv6 CIDR prefix.

Example: 2606:4700::/32

Host bits are normalized to the network address before the range is calculated.

Network details for 2001:db8::/78

The prefix identifies a network with 50 host bits. Every address from the first address through the last address belongs to this range.

CIDR prefix

2001:db8::/78

Network mask

ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:fffc::

Prefix length

/78

Host bits

50

First address

2001:db8::

Last address

2001:db8::3:ffff:ffff:ffff

Total addresses

1125899906842624

Total addresses (human readable)

2^50 addresses (1,125,899,906,842,624; about 1.12 quadrillion)

How this range is calculated

  1. 1The /78 prefix keeps the first 78 network bits fixed.
  2. 2Setting all 50 host bits to zero produces 2001:db8::.
  3. 3Setting those host bits to one produces 2001:db8::3:ffff:ffff:ffff.

Network address

The normalized prefix base

CIDR notation describes a network, not a single host. If an address with host bits set is entered, this calculator normalizes it to the network base before calculating the range.

Expanded network address
