When you register online service it's required to provide physical address for security and other reasons. Usually internet providers and DNS service keepers allocate such information.
As soon as it communicates with a remote server, the server allocates a unique IP address in order to identify the individual computer.
The DHCP protocol.
ARP stands for Address Resolution Protocol, a network layer protocol used to convert an IP address into a physical address, such as an Ethernet address. A host wishing to obtain a physical address broadcasts an ARP request onto the TCP/IP network. The host on the network that has the IP address in the request then replies with its physical hardware address.
ARP address resolution protocol
No an IP address is considered a logical address. Physical address refers to a MAC address which is burned into ROM on each Ethernet network interface card or NIC. In theory every NIC card has a unique physical address which denotes its manufacture and its own unique address. The logical address or IP internet protocol address is used for layer 3 routing between networks and subnets.
logical address is called as global address and physical address is called as local address .the ip address,which is used by the user in the network is found to be global for use and it is easily identified in any network .physical address is mac address ,which is stored in the nic card,which is mainly used ,when the system is connected in the network using switch
The answer is ARP.
The ISP can link the IP address to the subscriber, but they won't do this for just anyone - it's typically limited to law enforcement agencies.
ARP used for resolving mac address from ip address, say one client want to communicate with another and the sender knows only its destination IP address. For communication it requires the physical address of the destination, thus sender uses ARP protocol to resolve the physical address of the destination from ip address by sending arprequest to destination system.
The network address of this ip address is 192.150.8 and 24 is host ip address
In the 8086/8088, the logical address (or effective address) is mapped to a physical address by adding it to the left shifted by 4 value of a segment register. For example, is the logical address is 1234H, and the segment register's contents is 5678H, the physical address is 1234H + 56780H, or 579B4H.
The IP address, '10.11.12.13' is not a valid address. This IP address is just a sample that is used.
