192.168.1.0/25 just means 25 bits in the network portion of the IP
address. In a 32 bit address, that means you have 7 bit of space left for
the device address part. with 8 bits apiece in each octet, you can figure
it out pretty quickly. I've always heard the /## notation referred to as
cisco notation.
