3. IP Address
●
●
It is a numerical label assigned to each device (like computer, printer)
participating in a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for
communication.
Types of IP Address
●
●
●
IPV4
IPv6
Methods of IP Address assignment
●
Dynamic
●
Static
5. ●
Private IP Addresses
●
●
172.16.0.0 through 172.31.255.255
●
●
10.0.0.0 through 10.255.255.255
192.168.0.0 through 192.168.255.255
Loop Back IP Address
●
127.0.0.1
6. Subnet
●
●
is a logically visible subdivision of an IP network.
The practice of dividing a network into two or more networks is
called subnetting.
7. CIDR
(Classless Inter-Domain Routing)
●
●
●
●
Also known as supernetting.
is a way to allocate and specify the Internet addresses used in
inter-domain routing more flexibly than with the original system
of Internet Protocol (IP) address classes.
Example: 192.168.1.0/24 this means that we can have IP's from
192.168.1.0 to 192.168.1.255 only.
8. DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
●
is a network protocol that is used to configure network devices
so that they can communicate on an IP network.
10. NAT
(Network Address Translation)
●
is the process of modifying IP address information in IP packet
headers while in transit across a traffic routing device.
