What is IP Address丨How does it works

 What can be done with IP Address?

👆 Undoubtedly you have heard the word "IP Address" many times. Until you know what an IP Address is, how it actually works or if you have no vague idea. But let's not know.

📷 IP Address is a unique product of modern computer technology, which communicates with one computer (or another digital device) through the Internet to another digital device. IP Address identifies the location of billions of digital devices connected to the Internet. For example, if someone wants to send you mail, you need a mail address. In the same sense, a remote computer needs your IP address to communicate with your computer.

👆 "IP" is an Internet Protocol, so an IP Address is the address of an Internet Protocol. This means the Internet Protocol address. Therefore, an Internet Protocol address is a means of exchanging data by identifying the destinations of two devices to connect the two devices online.

What does IP Address look like?

An IP Address has four digits, each containing 1 to 3 digits (called a set together), and a dot (.) To separate a set of digits. Each of the 4 numbers can be from 0 to 255. Here is an example of how the IP Address can be -78.125.0.209. 

As a result of these four numbers, we can easily connect with each other through the Internet, exchange messages, and much more. Without this numerical protocol, it is impossible to exchange data from one end of the earth via the web.

Type of work

IP addresses can be static or dynamic. Static IP addresses can never be changed. A static IP address is a simple and reliable way to communicate with your remote computer. Many websites provide free IP address search services for internet users. If you want to know about your own IP Address, you can search with Google.

Dynamic IP Address

Dynamic IP addresses are temporary, and the Internet can be used on a computer for a certain period of time. Static IP addresses are few because many ISPs share addresses with their customers from all these static IP addresses. As a result, it can serve more customers at a lower cost.

Static IP Address

For those who want VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) online gaming, it is best to use the Static IP Address to easily identify and connect with other computer users. Using the Dynamic DNS service at Dynamic IP Address allows you to easily identify and connect to other computer users using a temporary or one-time IP Address. This is often an extra charge, so be sure to check with the ISP.

What does IP address basically do?

Finds the host or network interface so you can connect to another server.

Identify the location of the network user. Each IP address refers to a specific area. IP varies by region. An IP address is basically a binary number. But we see it in some numbers or letters.

Remember

Static IP Addresses are considered a little less secure than Dynamic IP Addresses, as they are much easier to track in data mining. If you use/manage the internet properly, no matter what type of IP address you use, your computer / any other device is not likely to have security or any other problem.

Since they are easier to track for data mining purposes, static IP addresses are slightly less secure than dynamic IP addresses.
