An IP address is a unique 32-bit number that identifies each device on a network. It allows devices to communicate by sending and receiving data packets. IP addresses are made up of a network portion and host portion, with four sections that each range from 0-255. There are five classes of IP addresses - A, B, C, D and E - that determine the number of networks and hosts. IPv4 uses 32-bit addresses written in dotted decimal notation, while IPv6 uses 128-bit addresses written in hex. IP addresses can be static or dynamically assigned by a DHCP server.

3. What is an IP Address?
 An IP Address is a 32-bit sequence of 1s and 0s.
 A way to identify machines on a network.
 A unique identifier.
 A numerical label.

4. IP Usage
Used to connect to
another computer.
Allows transfers of files
and e-mail.

5. What is an internet protocol?
 Protocol used for communicating data.

6. Services provided by IP
 Addressing
 Fragmentation

7. Part of IP Address
 Network Part
 Local or Host Part

8. IP Structure
 IP Addresses consist of four sections.
 Each section is 8 bits long.
 Each section can range from 0 to 255.
 Written, for example, 128.35.0.72

9. IP Structure
 5 classes of IP addresses A B C D and
E.
 Class A reserved for governments.
 Class B reserved for companies.
 Class C reserved for companies.
 Class D reserved for multicasting.
 Class E reserved for future use.

10. IP ranges
Class Address Range Supports
Class A 1.0.0.1 to 126.255.255.254 Supports 16 million hosts
on each of 127 networks.
Class B 127.1.0.1 to 191.255.255.254 Supports 65,000 hosts on
each of 16,000 networks.
Class C 192.0.1.1 to 223.255.254.254 Supports 254 hosts on each
of 2 million networks.
Class D 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255 Reserved for multicast
group.
Class E 224.0.0.0 to 254.255.255.254 Reserved for future use, or
research and development
purposes

16. Types of IP Address
 Static address
 Dynamic address

17. Types of IP Address
 Static IP Address
 Manually input by network administrator
 Manageable for small networks
 Requires careful checks to avoid
duplication

18. Types of IP Address
 Dynamic IP Address.
 Examples – BOOTP, DHCP.
 Assigned by server when host boots.
 Derived automatically from a range of
addresses.
 Duration of `lease` negotiated, then
address released back to server.

19. Public and Private IP
Address
 A public IP Address will be issued by an
ISP and will have number ranges from 1
to 191 in first octal with the exception of
the private address ranges that starts at
10.0.0 for class A private networks and
172.16.0 for the class B private
addresses.
