Classless Inter-Domain Routing ( CIDR / ˈsaɪdər, ˈsɪ -/) is a method for allocating IP addresses for IP routing. The Internet Engineering Task Force introduced CIDR in 1993 to replace the previous classful network addressing architecture on the Internet. Its morgoal was to slow the growth of routing tables on routers across the Internet ...

A common practice is to give CPEs a unique IPv4 address on their Internet-facing interface and use NAT to hide all ...
