IP ADDRESS

WHAT IS AN IP ADDRESS?
• IP address is short for Internet Protocol (IP
) address.
• An IP address is an identifier for a computer or
device on a Transmission Control Protocol
( TCP/IP ) network.
• Networks using the TCP/IP protocol route
messages based on the IP address of the
destination.
IP ADDRESS
• The format of an IP address is a 32-bit numeric
address written as four numbers separated by
periods. Each number can be zero (0) to 255.
• For example, 1.160.10.240 could be an IP address.
• Or 192.168.0.1
• Or 126.1.2.200
HOW TO
ASSIGN AN IP
ADDRESS?
IP CLASSES
• Class A: Numbers ranging from 1-126
An example of a Class A IP address is
102.168.212.226, where "102" identifies the
network and "168.212.226" identifies the host on
that network.

N.H.H.H
IP CLASSES
• Class B: Numbers ranging from 128-191
An example of a Class B IP address is
168.212.226.204 where "168.212" identifies the
network and "226.204" identifies the host on that
network.

N.N.H.H
IP CLASSES
• Class C: Numbers ranging from 192-223
An example of a Class C IP address is
200.168.212.226 where "200.168.212" identifies
the network and "226" identifies the host on that
network.
Network interpretation
N.N.N.H
IP CLASSES
• In a Class D Network, binary addresses start with
1110, therefore the decimal number can be
anywhere from 224 to 239. Class D networks are
used to support multicasting.
IP CLASSES
• In a Class E Network, binary addresses start with
1111, therefore the decimal number can be
anywhere from 240 to 255. Class E networks are
used for experimentation. They have never been
documented or utilized in a standard way.
DID YOU NOTICE SOMETHING?
• Where is 127?
• 127 in ip address is a special IP
• Or what we call a LOOPBACK IP ADDRESS
STATIC AND
DYNAMIC
IP ADDRESS
STATIC IP ADDRESS
• A static IP address is an address that is
permanently assigned to you by your ISP (as long
as your contract is in good standing), and does
not change even if your computer reboots. A
static IP address is usually assigned to a server
hosting websites, and providing email, database
and FTP services.
• Static IP address Advantages
• Address does not change - good for web servers,
email servers and other Internet servers.
• Use DNS to map domain name to IP address, and
use domain name to address the static IP address.
Similar can be achieved with Dynamic DNS for
dynamic IP address, but it's not as clean as the
static IP address.
• Static IP address Disadvantages
• Expensive than dynamic IP address - ISPs
generally charge additional fee for static IP
addresses.
• Need additional security - Since same IP is
assigned to a machine, hackers try brute force
attack on the machine over period of time.
DYNAMIC IP ADDRESS
• A dynamic IP address is an IP address dynamically
assigned to your computer by your ISP. Each time
your computer (or router) is rebooted, your ISP
dynamically assigns an IP address to your
networking device using DHCP protocol. Since
your ISP dynamically assigns an IP address to a
computing device on reboot, your device may not
always receive the same IP address previous
assigned to it
• Dynamic IP address Advantages
• Cheaper than static IP address.
• Changing IP address gives more privacy.
• Dynamic IP address Disadvantages
• Requires DHCP server to obtain an IP address.
• Non-static. Each time IP address changes, you
may have to find you IP address again.
WHAT IS A DHCP?
• Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a
protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses to
devices on a network. With dynamic addressing, a
device can have a different IP address every time
it connects to the network. In some systems, the
device's IP address can even change while it is
still connected. DHCP also supports a mix of static
and dynamic IP addresses.
IP ASSIGNMENT
&
IP ALLOCATION
IP ASSIGNMENT
• IP assignment is a block of IP addresses from your
allocation that is used on an active network.
IP ALLOCATION
• An allocation is the block of IP addresses that is
reserved for your use now and in the future.
