We can assign one public IP address to a network, and within the network, distribute the private IP addresses which can come from one of the three reserved ranges:

  • 10.0.0.0 – 10.255.255.255/8 (16,777,216 hosts)
  • 172.16.0.0 – 172.31.255.255/12 (1,048,576 hosts)
  • 192.168.0.0 – 192.168.255.255/16 (65,536 hosts)

Is it correct that in the network, we can assign one private IP address (e.g. 192.168.0.10) to a "subnetwork", and within that "subnetwork", we can distribute private IP addresses in range 192.168.0.0 – 192.168.255.255 to the hosts in the "subnetwork", and 192.168.0.10 in the "subnetwork" and 192.168.0.10 in the original network can coexist and refer to different things?

Thanks.

No. IP addresses are unique. If you’re using private addresses, they will be unique within your organization.
