Internet Protocol

By: Vansh , Soumi & Ayush


IP (Internet Protocol)
The IP(internet protocol), generically is an address that indicates
the location of a particular piece of equipment in a private or
public network.
The IP address version 4 (IPv4), is a 32bit
number written as four octets represented
in decimal format:
• The first part of the address identifies a
specific network in the inter-network;
• The second part identifies a host within
that network.
Types of IP addresses
• There are various classifications of IP addresses, and each
category further contains some types.
• Every individual or firm with an active internet service
system pursues two types of IP addresses, i.e., Private IP
(Internet Protocol) addresses and public IP (Internet
Protocol) addresses.
1. Private IP addresses
2. Public IP addresses
Private and Public IP Address
• The Private IP Address of a system is the IP address that is used to
communicate within the same network. Using private IP data or
information can be sent or received within the same network.

• The Public IP Address of a system is the IP address that is used to


communicate outside the network. A public IP address is basically
assigned by the ISP (Internet Service Provider).

IP Addressing and Routing
Most complex aspects of IP are IP addressing and routing. Addressing
refers to how end hosts becomes assigned IP addresses and how
subnetworks of IP host addresses are divided and grouped together.
IP packet
What is an IP packet?
A message may be a short ping to check that another device is online.
But there is a limit to how large a message can be, That's why many
networking protocols divide each message into several smaller packets.
The Internet Protocol (IP) describes the structure of packets moving
over the Internet.
• Each IP packet contains both a header (20 or 24 bytes long) and data
(variable length).
