Internet protocol

„ Every machine on the Internet has a unique


identifying number, called an IP Address.
„ The IP stands for Internet Protocol, which is
the language that computers use to
communicate over the Internet.
„ A protocol is the pre-defined way that someone
who wants to use a service talks with that
service. The "someone" could be a person, but
more often it is a computer program like a Web
browser.

„ A typical IP address looks like this:
„ 216.27.61.137
„ To make it easier for us humans to remember,
IP addresses are normally expressed in
decimal format as a dotted decimal number
like the one above.
„ But computers communicate in binary form.
Look at the same IP address in binary:
11011000.00011011.00111101.10001001
