Bala Sundaram Dont want to be that guy, but...172.x.x.x is a class B (16 bit)
Class C address is the one I believe your referring too as in 192.168.x.x
Basically -
Class A goes from 0 upto 127 - ex. 10.10.10.1
Class B goes from 128 upto 191 (hence the 172.16.x.x as i too have that anomaly in my vEthernet
Class C goes from 192 upto 223 - common ex. 192.168.1.1
then you get Class D and also E but these are reserved special purposes. Class D for multicast and E for experimental.
Class D goes from 224 upto 239
Class E goes from 240 upto 255
If you knew this then ignore this reply.
I hope you sorted out the issue. I dont see any resolution at the end of this thread. Let me know if you did.
All the best.
