In IPv4 addressing each IP address is a unique number?

Explain what the number 0 and the number 255 are used for in IPv4 addressing?

Number 0 is used at the end of an IPv4 address for network identifiers and number 255 is used at end of an IPv4 for broadcast addresses.

What type of address is ipv4 address?

The address space of IPV4 is limited to 4294967296 possible unique addresses.

What criterion must be followed in the design of an IPv4 addressing scheme for end devices?

Each IP address must be unique within the local network.

How many address in IPv4 address?

32 bits in a IPv4 address

What is mask in IPV4 addressing?

/n

Which characteristic describes an IPv6 enhancement over IPv4?

While IPv6 is based on IPv4, it is superior. The main characteristic that shows its enhancement over IPv4 is that it processes faster.

What is ipv4 protocol?

Well IPv4 is actually just part of the protocol TCP/IP or Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol. IPv4 is the current addressing scheme used by TCP/IP. The newer IPv6 has been rolling out to eventually replace IPv4. Back to what it is… IPv4 is a 32 bit binary addressing scheme by which every computer on the public Internet (most commonly HTTP) or web servers must be assigned a unique address. The address format is comprised of four sets of 8 bit numbers, more commonly referred to as an octet. So 4 * 8 binary numbers give you a 32 bit IPv4 binary address. Because these numbers are binary each place value only has two possibilities, 0 or 1. Because there are only around 4.3 billion addresses available with 2^32 possible IPv4 addresses a new IPv6 was developed which gives a 128 bit addresses space. This should last until there is no room to stand anywhere on the planet. To summarize IPv4 is not a protocol but an addressing scheme that TCP/IP uses to transmit data packets over the Internet or over a private network. Every computer that is directly connected to the Internet needs a unique address. There are what is known as private IPv4 addresses, different topic, and finally IPv4 will eventually be replaced by IPv6.

What allows IPv6 hosts to map host names to IP address?

DNS - it handles both IpV4 and IPv6 addressing.

What is the difference between hardware address and IPv4 address?

The hardware address or MAC address is encoded on the NIC by the manufacturer for unique identification of the NIC. This cannot be changed.... The IPv4 address is an internet address usually assigned by a DHCP server for each computer on a network. This address can be changed.

Which IP addressing format is used in India?

IPv4

What is the difference between ipv4 and ip address?

IPV4 is a kind of IP Address.

Within a classful addressing subnet mask the bits indicate that corresponding bits in an IPv4 address contain network information?

the 1 bits
