IP AddressAn IP (internet protocol) address is a 32-bit number that allows computers to know what server you're trying to connect to on the internet. The number is displayed as a series of 4 numbers between 0 and 254 separated by periods. For example, this server's IP address is 65.98.78.15. But, bobsmithphotography.net is much easier to remember. When you request a domain name the computer does a DNS lookup to get the IP address. |
