    IP addresses

    IP addresses are unique sets of numbers assigned to devices that


    connect to a network. These sets of numbers are used to send and
    receive information on the network and to find other devices. An IP
    address is very much like a home address that others use to send you
    mail and for you to send mail to receive. It's a unique identifier of the
    location.
    IP addresses are broken into different classes.
    Class A
    IP addresses are used for huge networks. Class A IP addresses support up to
    16 million hosts. The hosts are devices that connect to a network and a Class
    A network can be divided into 127 different networks.
    Class B
    IP addresses are divided into 16, 384 networks used for medium and largesized networks in enterprises and organizations. They support up to 65,000
    hosts networks. The left most starts with 10.
    Class C
    The addresses are most common and used in small business and home
    networks. The left most starts with 110.These support up to 256 hosts on
    each of 2 million networks.
    Class D and E
    Those addresses are least used. Class D is reserved for a not widely used,
    and reserved for special cases largely for services and applications to stream
    audio and video to many subscribers at once. Class E addresses are reserved
    for research purposes by those responsible for Internet networking and IP
    address research, management, and development.
    All the devices attached to a hub are belong to one collision domain, which means if two
    hosts try to send data at the same time, a collision will occur. All the devices attached to a
    hub are also belong to one broadcast domain, that is, broadcast frame sent by one host will
    be received by all other hosts in the network. So, the message not properly and its cant
    receive the message.
