Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
IP address:
- Internet Protocol (IP) is a protocol suite that provides the routing of packets from one computer to another computer.
- Each host contains an IP address. IP address is a numeric identifier to uniquely recognize the host in the network.
- IP uses the router to forward the packets with the help of routing table.
- The IP addresses of computers, working on Internet, will be different from each other and it must be unique.
- It represents the numbers which identifies the network ID of which the device is a part of and device ID for example, for an IP address 192. 168.1.37 the number 192.168.1 identifies the network and the remaining numbers identify the host computer.
- Partition of which part will represent the network ID and which will represent the device ID is decided by the subnet mask.
- IP address can be classified into two classes:
- Private IP address
- Public IP address.
Public IP address:
Public IP address is generated when the device accesses the Internet for searching information. Both the public and private IP address can be either static or dynamic.
