IP-Addresses
allow a logical addressing of devices in an IP network; i.e. the internet. Atleast one host
has a static IP address. The IP address must be at least a version 4 IP address in which there are 4
numbers separated by periods with a value between or equal to 0 and 255, which then is capable of
being separated though one point, i.e. 192.168.0.34 or 127.0.0.1.
The network mask (aka subnet mask) is a bit mask, where that IP address separates the network from
the host. A network mask is just as long as an IP address (in IP version 4 it is 32 bit, in IP version 6 it is
128 bit). Every bit of the network mask is related to exactly one bit of the IP address.
The
Domain Name System
(
DNS
) is the most important of these numbers in relation to the internet. A
DNS is a databank, which changes the known address in to an IP address. In other words it takes the
domain name and finds the corresponding IP address. In comparison it would be like a telephone book
where you would look for a persons name, and the corresponding number would be there.
