10.0.1.0/24
Private (RFC 1918) RFC 1918Commonly the second subnet in a VPC or office network using 10.0.0.0/16, often assigned to a second availability zone or VLAN.
Network address — the base address of the block (10.0.1.0). All devices in this subnet share this prefix. Cannot be assigned to a host.
Broadcast address — packets sent to 10.0.1.255 are delivered to every device in the subnet. Also reserved — not assignable.
Usable hosts — the 254 addresses between those two that you can assign to servers, VMs, or interfaces.
Subnet mask — 255.255.255.0 is the dotted-decimal equivalent of /24. Older tools and Cisco configs use this format instead of CIDR slash notation.

Binary Representation
The first 24 bits (1s in the mask) identify the network. The remaining 8 bits identify hosts within the network.
Subnet Breakdown — splitting into /25
This /24 block can be divided into 2 /25 subnets.
| CIDR | Network | Broadcast | First Usable | Last Usable | Hosts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10.0.1.0/25 | 10.0.1.0 | 10.0.1.127 | 10.0.1.1 | 10.0.1.126 | 126 |
| 10.0.1.128/25 | 10.0.1.128 | 10.0.1.255 | 10.0.1.129 | 10.0.1.254 | 126 |
