3. Can 225.15.225.80 be used as private IP address of a router?

225.15.225.80 generally cannot be used as a private IP address of a router.

IP addresses can be classified as private IP addresses, public IP addresses and reserved IP addresses.

  • Public IP addresses: The overwhelming majority of IP addresses are public addresses and need to apply for registration with the international Internet administrative agency.
  • Private IP addresses: 3 IP address segments are reserved in the IPv4 address protocol as private addresses for internal use by the organization.
  • Reserved IP Addresses: There are also some reserved addresses, which are used as private IP address space or for special purposes such as internal LAN.
Internal and external network

From the screenshot above, you can see the different locations and utilizations of public IP address and private IP address.

From the definition of IANA, the private IP address is also classified as a reserved IP address. There are mainly 3 IP segments:

Class Address range Number of addresses Number of networks
Class A 10.0.0.0 ~ 10.255.255.255 16777216 1 Class A
Class B 172.16.0.0 ~ 172.31.255.255 1048576 16 Class C
Class C 192.168.0.0 ~ 192.168.255.255 65536 256 Class C

Our website judges that the above 3 IP segments are classified as private IP addresses. The IP addresses of these 3 IP segments can be used for routers, and other special IP addresses are classified as reserved IP addresses. Therefore, 225.15.225.80 is not the private IP address used by the router.

Note: If 225.15.225.80 is forcibly used as the router IP address, it may cause IP conflicts and other situations that makes the router cannot be used normally.

  • Administrative agency: MCAST-NET
  • Description:Addresses starting with a number between 224 and 239 are used for IP multicast. IP multicast is a technology for efficiently sending the same content to multiple destinations. It is commonly used for distributing financial information and video streams, among other things. A full list of IPv4 multicast assignments can be found at: http://www.iana.org/assignments/multicast-addresses A document describing the policies for assigning multicast addresses can be found at: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc5771
  • Country/Region:
  • Address: 12025 Waterfront Drive Suite 300 Los Angeles CA 90292 United States
  • Administrator:Internet Assigned Numbers Authority
  • Tel: +1-310-823-9358
  • E-mail: res-ip@iana.org

The Whois lookup tool is designed to allow people to find the responsible agency and administrator when there is network problem. At present, Whois tools are widely used in the network technical level, for example, if Telecom Internet service providers find there is network problem, they can quickly notify the relevant responsible person to diagnose and deal with it. In addition, if there is network resources abuse, such as a lot of spam from a certain IP address, they can also contact the person in charge of spam complaints to deal with it.
