IP Addressing

What is an IP Address?

An IP address is a 32-bit binary number that is used to identify each device on an Ethernet
network. This number is usually represented by four decimal numbers (called "octets"), each
in the range of 0 through 255 and separated by dots; for example, 198.123.34.240. This is
called "dotted decimal notation."
An IP address is divided into two parts:
•
•
Each address on a given network must have the same network identifier value but have a
unique host identifier. As a result, there are different classes of addresses that define the
range of valid addresses and the parts of the address that are used for the network and
host identifiers.
Insert the switcher into the rack, aligning the holes in the mounting flanges with those in
the rack.
Secure the switcher to the rack using the supplied bolts and washers.
