An IP address

An IP address

An IP address can also be thought of as the equivalent of a street address or a phone number for a computer or other network device on the Internet. Just as each street address and phone number uniquely identifies a building or telephone, an IP address can uniquely identify a specific computer or other network device on a network.

Static And Dynamic Ip address

Static And Dynamic Ip address

A Static IP address is where a computer uses the same address every time, as opposed to situations where the user IP address changes frequently, when a user logs on to a network by dialup or on shared residential cable. Static addressing is essential in some infrastructure situations, such as finding the Domain Name Service directory host that will translate names to numbers.
