IP address format is 123.456.789.00.

addresses.

NOTE: Finding a person's IP address for videoconferencing on the Internet is often a confusing
process. To help you find people's IP addresses easier, a number of Internet servers run the User
Location Service, or ULS. To access a ULS server, use Internet Explorer to open Web sites at
www.ULS.microsoft.com or at www.four11.com. (You can access several servers quickly at the
Microsoft site by adding a number after the ULS, for example ULS1.micorsoft.com,
ULS2.microsoft.com and so on.) The ULS servers not only list people by name, they also show
the Person's current IP address to call to videoconference.
