IP (Internet Protocol) is a network protocol that defines a standardized method of transmitting data over a network. On the Internet, each device connected to the network is assigned a unique IP address, like a postal address, so that the device can be found and data can be sent over the network.
An IP address consists of a string of numbers, usually four digits, each ranging from 0 to 255 in dotted decimal notation, such as 192.168.0.1. IP addresses can be categorized into two types: IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 is the more common IP address format, while IPv6 is the newer format used to solve the problem of insufficient IPv4 addresses. IPv4 is the more common IP address format, while IPv6 is a newer format used to solve the IPv4 address shortage problem.
Simply put, an IP address is like the address of each device on a network, allowing data to be sent to the correct device. If you need to connect to a device on the network, you need to know its IP address in order to communicate and transfer data.
