Hello, everyone.
So in this video we are going to understand about what is
IP?
So IP address is a type of logical address, which is
used to identify a computer device on
the internet.
Similarly if anyone wants to reach at my
house.
Then they need to know my house address.
In a similar manner if anyone wants to
reach me onto the Internet space then
knee then they need to know my IP
address.
The full form of IP address is Internet Protocol
address.
So basically there are two types of IP addresses
namely.
ipv4 and IPv6
IP address is denoted by dotted decimal
notation.
So who gives us the IP address internet service
providers provides IP addresses to
us?
The state of IP address keeps changing from Network
to network.
For instance. If you are into one network, you may
get a different IP address into that IP address
range and when you move on to another Network
your IP address may change.
So what is a MAC address?
Mac address is a type of physical address, which
is used to identify computer devices
on the internet.
Mac address is also known as burnt address
or Hardware address.
This is a address which comes onto your
Nick card, which is network interface
card through which each device is
been identified in a unique manner.
The full form of Mac address is Media Access Control.
It is denoted by a hexa decimal
value.
who gave
Us Mac address the NIC card manufacturer
provides us the Mac addresses.
Remember the state of Mac address
does not change like IP addresses. It is
fixed address of your device. That's
why they are known as Hardware address burnt
address.
also
Remember, although these types
of addresses can be spoofed to trick into
applications.
So what is the difference between ipv4 and IPv6?
Remember IP version 4 was founded in
1981.
and after some years
IP version 6 was found out.
this was because
there were limited number of IP addresses and the
users for increasing at a very rapid rate.
So
the IP space
was getting gradually.
Lesser and lesser and was getting
over that's why we need to introduce more
IP addresses, which was done using IPv6.
So ipv4 address is a 32-bit address length.
IPv6 address has 128 bit
address length, which is a Way
Beyond larger than ipv4.
So for now we are safe IB
addresses won't.
exhaust
the representation of ipv4 addresses dotted decimal
and the representation of IPv6 is
also daughter decimal
The number of addresses in ipv4 is
2 raised to 32.
And the number of addresses can be formed using IPv6 address
is 2 raise to 128.
I hope you guys understood. Thank you.
