they mean is a useful tool while setting up systems. As such this guide is not designed to

The Internet is a collection of individual networks tied together. Each of these smaller
networks is called a subnet (more on this later). Inside each subnet, all networked
components (computers, bridges, spreader units, etc) have an address that differentiates
those components from each other. It is required that all networked components inside a
subnet have a
unique
address. This allows the other components in that subnet to
identify who is “talking”. The address is typically expressed as a
dotted quad
address.
It looks like four numbers from 0 to 255 separated by periods. An example would be
172.154.23.58. The addresses of a subnet must be similar to each other if the components
are to communicate with each other.
