May I know what is the difference among cidr and inet? I read through Network
Address Type (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/datatype-net-types.html)
"""The essential difference between inet and cidr data types is that inet
accepts values with nonzero bits to the right of the netmask, whereas cidr does
not."""
I understand what is Subnet Mask from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subnetwork.
But, what does it mean by "nonzero bits to the right of the netmask"? Is there
any example to show the difference among the 2?
If I provide the following input 1.2.3.4, this is what I am getting if I view
through pgAdmin.
inet = 1.2.3.4cidr = 1.2.3.4/32
