192.168.anything.anything, 10.anything, and 172.0-172.16.anything are usually private. If it does not begin with 192, 172, or 10, it is definitely public.

How does a computer identify itself on a network?
The IP Address identifies a PC on a network. Source: I am an IT student in College :)
Describe the difference between public and private IPv4 addresses. If a network is using private IP addresses how can the computers on that network access the Internet?
If a network is using a public IP address, anyone can use it to log on to the network. A private IP address requires a specific password. Only users who have the password can use that connection.
What does it mean when a computer has an APIPA address on its network interface?
APIPA stands for Automatic Private IP Address Generally it will be in the range 169.254.0.1 up to 169.254.255.254 (subnet of 255.255.0.0) This is the IP address a computer gets when it is set up pick up an IP address automatically and there is no DHCP server... or the computer can't see a router. The computer will be able to connect to any other computer on the network with an IP in the same range, but will NOT be able to connect to the internet.
How can another computer have the same IP address as yours?
Not on the same network it can't. If you are using internal private addressing then the address could be duplicated in many other networks. Private addresses and NAT proxy do not reveal the actual IP address (it is translated on the way out of and into a network). In that case the internal IP address may be the same (in different networks).
What IP address is a network address?
internet provider Its actually internet protocol. Every computer on the network has to have its own address, this address is called the IP address. Though since you asked what is IP. IP is just a protocol.
Which type of internet protocal address is 192.168.88.207?
192.168.x.x is an IP address in the private IP address range.
What is the ip address and if your computer does not connected to internet then your computer have an ip address?
IP address is the internet protocol address which is unique for each system in the given network. IP address is like an unique id that uniquely identifies a system on a network. Yes even if you are not connected to internet, computer would still have an IP address.
Which IP address processes enables workstations to use private IP addresses to access the Internet?
NAT (Network Address Translation) A service that translates a private IP address to a public IP address in packets destined for the internet, then translates the public IP address in the reply to the private address.
Which is a ip address?
IP address is an logical value which is used to communicate with different computer in network.
What address identifies a computer printer or other device on a TCP IP network?
IP Address
Is this an ip address 127.16.0.0?
172.16.0.0 is itself a private IP address. (IP addresses from 172.16.0.0 to 172. 31.255.255 are all private IP addresses. Other private IP addresses are 10.X.X.X and 192.168.X.X where X can be from 0 to 255). But it's not usable as an IP address for a device such as a PC or host. This is because it's the first address and, by convention, the first address of a network is used to indicate its network address.
What IP address will a computer use if the static addressing is not configured and the DHCP server is unavailable?
A computer running Windows (except Windows NT) will use a system named APIPA (Automatic Private Internet Protocol Addressing) to assign itself an IP address. Using APIPA, the computer will assign itself an IP address from the 169.254.0.0 /16 network which is part of the private class B IP range. The valid address range for this network is 169.254.0.1 to 169.254.255.254 The subnet mask for this network is 255.255.0.0 The computers will use ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) to confirm that the IP address that it has chosen is unique and not being used by any other computer on the local network. When the DHCP server becomes available again, the computers will contact it and attempt to lease or renew a new IP address.
