Internet Protocol Address (IP Address)

Internet Protocol Address (IP Address) Explained

           IP-ADDRESS is a logical address or software address which mentions the network & host in Hierarchical manner. It is a 32 bit address in 4 Octet Eight.

There are two types of IP Addresses

  • Public IP Address
  • Private IP Address

e.g.     1st Octet             2nd                   3rd                       4th

         11111111  .   11111111     .  11111111   .11111111     = 32 bit

            (eight)                  (eight)                     (8)             (eight)

                                    10          0  0  5

                                  Net ID     Host ID

CLASSES OF IP- ADDRESS

The classes of IP Addresses have 5 types of classes they are

CLASS                                          RANGE

A                                                1-126  ( 127- loopback address (or) Self Pinging Address)   To check the connectivity of LAN

B                                                128-191

C                                                192-223

D (Multicasting)                       224-239

E  ( Defense & Research)       240-255

Small concept: 1         1        1       1        1        1       1        1

                        128     64      32     16       8        4       2        1

e.g.  255    255        255

      -128     -64        -32

      127      191        223

ISP- INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDER (PUBLIC ADDRESS FOR WAN)

 From ISP only we get IP-ADDRESS

PRIVATE IP – ADDRESS

CLASS A :- 10.0.0.0  to 10.0.0.255

            10.0.0.0 for 1 N/W Max IP-Addresses possible in Class A - 2536*256*256 = 1,67,77,216

CLASS B:-172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255

[ Private N/W = 16] Max IP-Addresses for 1 N/W in Class B  - 256*256 =65,536

CLASS C :- 192.168.3. to 192.168.255.255

            Max IP-Addresses for 1 N/W  in Class C – 256 =256

HOST ID

             IP Addresses of the Host is called as Host ID

e.g.   CLASS A         CLASS B             CLASS C

            10.0.0.1       172.168.10.1          192.168.10.1

NET ID

            The network Address of the Host is called as Net ID

e.g. CLASS A        CLASSB               CLASS C

       10.0.0.0            172.168.0.0          192.168.0.0

DEFAULT GATEWAY

             It is the IP-Addresses given in a network ,which enables all the client computers to communicate with Router . The starting Address of any N/W should be the gateway Address for that N/W.




EASY TABULATION

                                       CLASS A             CLASSB             CLASS C

IP-ADDRESSES             1 to 126                   128 to 191             192 to 223

HOST ID                    N.H.H.H                  N.N.H.H                 N.N.N.H
NET ID                       N.0.0.0                     N.N.0.0                  N.N.N.0
SUBNET MASK        255.0.0.0                  255.255.0.0           255.255.255.0

Interconnecting Devices

Interconnecting Devices An Interconnecting devices is a network device. It used to transfer data from one computer to other computer with the help of network devices. There are five categories of interconnecting devices are such as. Router  Hubs  Switches/Bridge  Repeater  BRouter Repeater: Now I am going to tell you the repeater is an electronic device that used to receive and send a signal. It amplifies the signal and noise. It provides transmission of the signal.  HUB (Hyper User Bus):  In this, it used to link several computers in the same network. It based on broadcasting, and it sends the data to all computers and repeats the signal which receives a signal from one port and copies to other port and traffic are high. Bridge / Switch:  In this, we can see the interconnecting devices which can divide a single network into two or more segment are called Bridge / Switch.  It has multiple ports like 2, 4, 16, and 32. The Switch main...

Printer

What is Printer? Another widely used output device is a printer and it is a computer peripheral device. A printer produces a hard copy of a processed text or a result. A hard copy refers to a permanent human-readable text or graphics taken on physical print media such as paper or transparency. A printer will use toner to provide a quality print on paper, a toner is a replaceable material. Once the toner gets empty we can refill it and reuse it.  Most of the printers are used for commercial purposes such as private offices, industries, government offices, photo studios, etc,. Most of the printers are used to print emails, documents, files, images, color photos, color documents, color posts, banners, advertisement posters, etc,. There are the following 5 types of printers such as dot matrix printer, inkjet printer, laser printer, dye-sublimation printer, and plotter printer this are all the printer which uses nowadays for a printing purpose. A printer is characterized by the followin...

CMOS

What is CMOS? CMOS stands for Complimentary Metal Oxide Semi-Conductor and it stores roughly 64Kb of data. It is the part of the southbridge in most computers. The specification stored in Complimentary Metal Oxide Semi-Conductor must match hardware and it allows you to access the BIOS. When hardware is change or update, Complimentary Metal Oxide Semi-Conductor must be updated. CMOS Battery Accessing BIOS through CMOS setup Complimentary Metal Oxide Semi-Conductor can only be accessed when the PC is booting and key combination at start-up. The changes are stores on an NVRAM Complimentary Metal Oxide Semi-Conductor chip. The mouse doesn’t work in Complimentary Metal Oxide Semi-Conductor setup. AMI and AWARD BIOS – DEL key  PHOENIX BIOS – CTRL, ALT and ESC keys or F2        CMOS Chip Complimentary Metal Oxide Semi-Conductor is stored in an SRAM chip called Non-Volatile Random Access Memory (NVRAM). It stores data that is uses by the BIOS and NVRAM is powered by Com...
