IPv4 Address
Network Address
There are two types of network addresses
Logical Address
- IP Address
Physical Address
- MAC Address (48bit) /Media Access Control
IP =Internet Protocol
Protocol in networking = Set of standard rules to communicate with each other.
There are two versions of IP
- IPv4 (32 bits)
- IPv6 (128bits)
So we mainly talk about IPv4. The IPv4 have 32bits. It's separated by 4 octets. One octet has 8 bits.
32 bits = 4 bytes
Octet Lowest value in binary = 00000000 Octet Lowest value in decimal = 0
Octet Highest value in binary = 11111111 Octet Highest value in binary = 255
How that's 255 comes in decimal value?
