\ About IP address
Global IP address and local IP address
There are 2 types of IP addresses: "global IP address" and "local IP address".
Global IP address: Just as different IP addresses are needed on a network, all PCs using the Internet worldwide must use a unique
IP address. This IP address is referred to as "global IP address".
Normally, the global address is assigned by the IS provider.
Local IP address:
In an environment not connected to the Internet (within a household, within a company, etc.), separate IP
addresses can be used freely within a network.
This IP address is referred to as "local IP address".
IP address classes
IP addresses are categorized into 3 classes depending on the number of PCs structuring a network.
"Class A IP addresses" are used for large-scale networks, "Class B IP addresses" are used for medium-scale networks and "Class C
IP addresses" are used for small-scale networks.
Within a network, all IP addresses must be of the same class. Each IP address is structured by a series of 4 digit numbers separated
by a period. The first number of the IP address indicates the class.
Class indicated here
IP address
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
First number of the IP address
1~127
128~191
192~223
* "224 ~ 255" are normally not used for IP addresses.
For example, a network structured by a few PCs to dozens of PCs would use Class C IP addresses.
Normally, the following special IP addresses are used when structuring a network.
Class
Class A
10.0.0.0 ~ 10.255.255.255
Class B
172.16.0.0 ~ 172.31.255.255
Class C
192.168.0.0 ~ 192.168.255.255
About proxy server
A proxy is a "relay point" for accessing the Internet. When enabling "Use a proxy server", the proxy server will make access to the
Internet.
Since various access information is cached at this time, downloading will be faster when reloading the same information from the
Internet since the data is loaded from the proxy server.
Class
Application (number of PCs structuring the network)
Class A
For large-scale networks (max. approx. 16 million units)
Class B
For medium-scale networks (max. approx. 65,000 units)
Class C
For small-scale networks (max. approx. 120 units)
