What is an IP Address?
An IP address (Internet Protocol address) is a unique identifier for a device on the Internet. It can be compared to a postal address that indicates the location of a device on the network. IP addresses are used for device interaction on the network, and every data packet sent over the Internet contains information about the sender’s and recipient’s IP address.
Types of IP Addresses
There are two main types of IP addresses: IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 is an older type that uses 32-bit addresses and has a limited number of available addresses. IPv6 is a newer type that uses 128-bit addresses and has a much larger number of available addresses.
