To participate in Internet communications and on Internet Protocol-based
networks, a node must have an Internet address that identifies it to the other
nodes. All Internet addresses are IP addresses
IP
Internet Protocol is the standard that describes the layout of the basic unit of
information on the Internet (the packet) and also details the numerical
addressing format used to route the information. Your Internet service provider
controls the IP address
of any device it connects to the Internet. The IP
addresses in your network must conform to IP addressing rules. In smaller
LANs, most people will allow the DHCP function of a router or gateway to assign
the IP addresses on internal networks.
IP address
IP address is a 32-binary digit number that identifies each sender or receiver of
information that is sent in packets across the Internet. For example 80.80.80.69
is an IP address, it is the closet thing the Internet has to telephone numbers.
When you “call” that number, using any connection methods, you get connected
to the computer that “owns” that IP address.
ISP
Internet Service Provider, is a company that maintains a network that is linked to
the Internet by way of a dedicated communication line. An ISP offers the use of
its dedicated communication lines to companies or individuals who can’t afford
