Ahhh ... sweet pity. Where would my love life be without it?

What exactly is "Class C" and how do you check/verify it?
I'm hearing the term more and more these days, mostly from you Jay, but it's also thrown around by some other people.
Can anyone explain it to me?

Class C network address is a non public address.
Like the fact that the IP of the computer that I am typing this from is 192.168.1.69. You would never be able to find me because this is a non public address. My router routes my public address to my compute's private address. If I wanted the web server that is running on my computer to be publicly available I would have to go into my routers settings and map port 80 to 192.168.1.69. There are a few ranges, the more common ones are 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254. |

I thought a Class C referreed to the 1st 3 parts of the IP address - like the Class C that I am sharring is:
66.115.135.XXX Class B would be all the IP's on: 66.115.XXX.XXX Class A would be all the IP's on: 66.XXX.XXX.XXX I also heard they are thinking of going to 6 sets if numbers in the IP's because they are running scarce (I guess a few University's got Class B's assigned to them back in the day & they won't let them go, so that means one University owns the rights to 250,000 IP's I could be wrong...... |

Math confuses me.
You may be right about the actually numbers, not sure. Here is a page one it. http://support.wrq.com/tutorials/tcpip/ipadd1.html All I know is Class C is reserved for private addresses. That is IPv6 and is suppose to replace the IP addressing that we use now since we are running out of addresses. One little problem, all the routers in the world will need to be upgraded. Also all the OS will need to be upgraded as well. Mac OS X supports it, not sure what other OS do. |

Subnets really confuse me,
http://support.wrq.com/tutorials/tcpip/subnet1.html I also often see 10.0.0.1 used for private addressing behind a proxy server. I've never understood that at all. Basically I deal with IP addressing the same way I deal with JavaScript in that I've learned what works and enough to know what to put where, but don't have a complete understanding of why. I do know that if you are setting up a network behind a router you can start with 192.168.1.2 on the computers and keep on adding 1 to each computer so that the next one would be 192.168.1.3 and so on and so on up to 195.168.1.244. The subnet stays the same at 255.255.255.0 and the router or gatway is 192.168.1.1. |

So how is different Class C relevant in terms of google?
Has anyone done extensive testing to show the benefits of being linked up from "different Class C" servers?

Does Google even know what Class C address you are on?
I've always understood that Class C was always only used for private addressing. |

I'm wondering if people say they have sites on different Class C's just to make their trading of links appear to be more valuable, or if it really does make a different. I guess in some sense this is similar to people saying they have sites on different IPs. Is it really an advantage?

I only know rumors, but from what I'm told, it's bad to have all your domains on the same Class C because if Google sees you linking to other domains that are all on, for example, 66.115.135.XXX they can assume that you are linking to other sites that you own or are in your network & hold that against you (knowing that they are all in your own little hub)
But if you link to domains on other Class C's, they treat them as legit link trades & thus hold them in a higer value. |

Most of this stuff is anecdotal and speculative... but as they say it doesnt hurt to do it and may offer you some longer term security.

NO! Im not a female - but being a dragon, I do eat them.

The only "intelligent" argument I've heard about separating Class "C"'s involved the ability to do a hand (or possibly even an automated) whois by the SE. If that is not done then you harm all of the sites on virtual hosting where single IPs are shared among domains.
But just in case I keep a spare Class C around |

You can now put whatever you want in this space :)
