Public IP addresses are IP addresses that are visible to
the public.
S tatic IP : An address assigned by the internet service
provider to be its permanent address on the internet
Dynamic IP : Temporary IP address assigned by the
internet service provider that changes every time the
computer connects to the internet.
Private IP
The internet cannot be accessed using a private IP
unless a HUB, or an internet sharing program is used.
However, if a private IP is used, the computer or the
DMS cannot be accessed from the internet.
There are three blocks of private IP addresses:
- 10.0.0.0 through 10.255.255.255
- 172.16.0.0 through 172.31.255.255
- 192.168.0.0 through 192.168.255.255
A private IP is not assigned by the internet service
providers. Internet service providers assign only public IPs,
whether static or dynamic.
