    An IP address is a numerical label assigned to devices connected to a computer network using the Internet Protocol. There are private and public IP addresses. Private IP addresses are for internal networks while public addresses are accessible from the Internet. Public IP addresses can be static, remaining fixed, or dynamic, assigned automatically by a DHCP server. IP version 4 uses 32-bit addressing and is nearly depleted while IP version 6 uses 128-bit addressing to vastly expand the available number of IP addresses.

    What is IP Address

    An Internet Protocol address is a numerical label such as

    Private IP Address

     A private address typically refers to an IP address that is reserved for internal


    use within a private network.
    Public IP Address
     A public IP address is an address that is assigned to a device or network and is
    accessible over the public internet.

     There are two types of public IP Address:


     Static: A static public IP address remains fixed and does not change over time.
     Dynamic : A dynamic IP address is an IP address that is assigned to a device (such as a
    computer or router) automatically by a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
    server.
