  • 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.
