IP addressing scheme is integral to the process of routing IP data through an internetwork. Briefly describe the two main parts of an IPv4 address acording to class

What is IP addressing?

Highlight types of IP addressing typesa.A public IP address is assigned to a device directly connected to the internet. It is globally routable and can be accessed from the internetb.Private IP addresses are used within a private network and are not routable over the internet. They are reserved for use within private networks.c.Subnetting involves dividing a larger network into smaller, more manageable subnetworks. It allows for better organization and management of IP addressesd.IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4) addresses are 32-bit numerical labels assigned to devices participating in a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication.e.Dynamic IP addresses are automatically assigned by a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server when a device joins a network. The address may change over time.f.A static IP address is manually configured for a device and remains constant. It does not change unless reconfigured.g.IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) addresses are the next generation of IP addresses designed to address the limitations of IPv4, especially the exhaustion of available IPv4 addresses.h.The loopback address (127.0.0.1 in IPv4) is used to test network connectivity on a local device. Data sent to the loopback address is looped back to the device without being sent over the network

Define the  term IP address .

An IP address is represented by a series of numbers segregated by periods(.).An IP address is the identifier that enables your device to send or receive data packets across the internet.IP address is generated mathematically and assigned by the IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority).IP addresses are permanent and never change.IP addresses are not produced randomly.
