Also the following addresses are not used as a valid and unique IPv4 Addresses: Also the following addresses are not used as a valid and unique IPv4 Addresses:
10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255/8 (16.777.216 hosts) 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255/8 (16.777.216 hosts)

192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255/16 (65.536 hosts)
We use these IP addresses as local addresses. The local addresses are translated into a global IP when sending messages to a host in a other network. This translation process is called NAT.
### Scarce IP address problem
With 32 bits, the maximum possible IPv4 addressed is 2^32 = 4 billion
**We need more addresses.**
