/10 Subnet Mask: 255.192.0.0
A /10 prefix fixes the first 10 bits of the address as the network, leaving 22 bits for hosts. That gives 4,194,304 addresses, of which 4,194,302 can be assigned to hosts.

Example: 10.0.0.0/10
- Network address: 10.0.0.0
- First usable host: 10.0.0.1
- Last usable host: 10.63.255.254
- Broadcast address: 10.63.255.255
When to use a /10 subnet
Very large private networks. 10.0.0.0/8 is the largest private IPv4 range defined by RFC 1918.
- 4 /10 subnets fit in a /8.
