List of assigned /8 IP address blocks
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Some large /8 blocks (formerly constituting a "Class A network") of IP addresses are assigned to single organizations or related groups of organizations, either by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), through the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority[1], or a regional Internet registry.
Each /8 block has 16,777,214 addresses. Some organizations, such as Stanford University (formerly owner of the 36.0.0.0 – 36.255.255.255 range), have returned their designated ranges due to IP address shortages in recent years. Note that some of these allocations are actually twice as large, and can be considered /7 networks formed through contiguous /8 networks.; such instances are marked in bold.
