IP (Internet Protocol):

IP Addresses are divided into 5 Classes, These are divided by IANA: - Internet Assigned Number authority.

We are using two type of version

· IPV4

· IPV6

So let start first discussing IP V4.

· IP uses packets called IP packets to carry information. Every IP packet should have address.

· The IP address (IPV4) is 32 bit and consists of 2 parts, the network part and the host part.

The IP address is 32 bit but we write it into 4 block of 8 bit as given above.

IP Addresses are divided into 5 Classes, There are divided by IANA:- Internet Assigned Number Authority.

Class A 1-126

Class B 128-191

Class C 192-223

Class D 224-239 - Multicast

Class E 240-255 - Reserved

So we are only using Class A,B & C IP address

Subnet Mask: It’s an address used to identify the network and host portion of the IP address

Class A N.H.H.H 255.0.0.0 /8

Class B N.N.H.H 255.255.0.0 /16

Class C N.N.N.H 255.255.255.0 /24
