A complete IP address has 4 octets.
MPGMichael
We are talking IPv4 because IPv6 uses quintets.
There are 4 octets in an IPv4 address. Each octet is separated by a dot (.)
Each place has a binary value assigned to it as follows.
128s, 64s, 32s, 16s, 8s, 4, 2s, and 1s place
The place values repeat in each octet
The place values are read from right to left in binary numbers
Within each octet there are 2^8 or 2 to the 8thpower possible addresses. So the math answer is 256.
However if you write it out you will see that 128+64+32+16+8+4+2+1 = 255 and 256 is actually carried to the next octet.
So there are 255 possible addresses in each octet
For example a class C address would look like this 192.168.1.2 or binary 11000000.10101000.00000001.00000010
