What is ip address and classes

An IP address is a numerical label assigned to each device connected to a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication. An IP address serves two main functions: host or network interface identification and location addressing.

In the context of programming, a class is a template for creating objects. It is a way to define the structure of an object and the methods that will operate on it. Classes can contain variables and functions (also known as methods) that are used to manipulate the data stored in the object. When you create an object from a class, you are creating an instance of that class.





Ip address classes 

There are five classes of IP addresses: A, B, C, D, and E. These classes are defined based on the value of the first octet of the IP address, which determines the range of addresses available in that class.

Class A addresses have a range of 1.0.0.0 to 126.0.0.0 and are used for large networks.
Class B addresses have a range of 128.0.0.0 to 191.0.0.0 and are used for medium-sized networks.
Class C addresses have a range of 192.0.0.0 to 223.0.0.0 and are used for small networks.
Class D addresses are reserved for multicast groups and have a range of 224.0.0.0 to 239.0.0.0.
Class E addresses are reserved for experimental purposes and have a range of 240.0.0.0 to 255.0.0.0.
IP addresses are usually written in the form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where xxx is a number between 0 and 255.

Google Tips & Tricks, (utilizing search engine)

NETWORK TECH WORLD ================================================== Utilizing search engines ================================================== So much information is on the web, its mind boggling. Thankfully we have search engines to sift through them and catagorize them for us. Unfortunatly, there is still so much info that even with these search engines, its often a painstakingly slow process (something comparable to death for a hacker) to find exactly what you're looking for. Lets get right into it. I use google.com as my primary search engine because it presently tops the charts as far as the sites that it indexes which means more pertinent info per search. 1. Page translation. Just because someone speaks another language doesn't mean they dont have anything useful to say. I use translation tools like the ones found at http://babelfish.altavista.com and http://world.altavista.com to translate a few key words I am searching for. Be specific and cr...

What is network

NETWORK TECH WORLD What is network  A network is a group of devices, such as computers, servers, and printers, that are connected together and able to communicate with each other. Networks can be classified based on their size and scope, such as a local area network (LAN), which is a network that is confined to a small area, such as a single building or campus, or a wide area network (WAN), which is a network that spans a large geographical area, such as a city or a country. Networks can also be classified based on their communication protocols, such as the Internet, which is a global network that uses the Internet Protocol (IP) to connect devices around the world.
