The function of an internet Protocol (IP) are given to every mode (a machine) that connects to the internet. The machine can be a printer, a computer, fax machine and many others. Each mode is given an IP which connects to the router, which connects to the modem. The purpose of the IP is like a home address and the postal mail.
In this example IP will mean where you live (your home address). Postal Service means Internet. Modem will mean your country province and city.
Let's say someone is sending a letter to you. The Postal Service needs to know your address and where you live. They write your name, and your address on the card and send it away. The postal service then gets the letter and knows your address (IP). It sends the letter to your address to then be picked up by you (the computer) in order to recieve a connection.

What is the difference between a restricted and unrestricted IP address?
An unrestricted IP address is one which is not restricted by time, transfer limits, filters, ect. A restricted IP address is one which is limited from performing certain functions. An IP address is usually restricted to ban a certain type of internet activity.
What is an unrestricted static ip address?
This is a fixed IP address. Within a Local Area Network this can be used for servers or printers. Within the Internet this can be used for Web servers. A single IP address also has ports numbers (~60,000) that can be used for various functions. e.g. Web Server, FTP server, Email server, Remote Desktop etc. Unrestricted access would allow all the computing functions that you need on the one IP address.
Why ip is called connectionless?
IP is connectionless because you don't want routing to reply to every routing request; it would slow things down to almost a stop. The router has to assume that the packet arrives where it was sent.
What are the Functions of each ip address class?
In classfull addressing schemes each address class limited the total number of clients per network. Other than that, there are no particular functions for each address class.
What you mean by ip address?
An Internet Protocol address (IP address) is a numerical label assigned to each device (e.g., computer, printer) participating in a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication. An IP address serves two principal functions: host or network interface identification and location addressing.
What do you mean IP?
an ip or internet protocol is a numeric label assigned to devices in a computer network utilizing a ip for communication between its nodes. An ip address serves two principal functions in network : network interface identification and local addressing.
What device do you need to have like a hub where two printers for different functions can be accessed by either your PC or your laptop ie they are plugged in the same hub but not printing at the same?
It looks like you have problems with ip addressing. Make sure that both printers have different ip addresses and both ip address are in the same subnetwork as your PC and the laptop.
Which two layers of the OSI model describe the same functions as the transport and internet layers of the TCP IP model?
Transport layer and Network layer.
What is WINPCFG?
I am assuming you mean WINIPCFG. This program was included with windows 98 and windows ME to allow you to identify the IP address and the MAC address of a network device installed in your computer. It also has other functions that directly relate to IP information such as renewing and releasing IP information. Windows XP and beyond include this type of thing in their networking options
Show that DES decryption is inverse of DES encryption?
The reasoning for the Feistel cipher, as shown in Figure 3.6 applies in the case of DES. We only have to show the effect of the IP and IP-1 functions. For encryption, the input to the final IP-1 is RE16 LE16. The output of that stage is the ciphertext. On decryption, the first step is to take the ciphertext and pass it through IP. Because IP is the inverse of IP-1, the result of this operation is just RE16 LE16, which is equivalent to LD0 RD0. Then, we follow the same reasoning as with the Feistel cipher to reach a point where LE0 = RD16 and RE0 = LD16. Decryption is completed by passing LD0 RD0 through IP-1. Again, because IP is the inverse of IP-1, passing the plaintext through IP as the first step of encryption yields LD0 RD0, thus showing that decryption is the inverse of encryption.
What is the difference between an internal IP and an external IP?
internal ip is ur lan ip external ip is ip of wan that is provided by isp
What are the function of RARP?
RARP is short from Reverse Address resolution protocol. As the name suggests RARP functions the reverse as ARP. That is it maps MAC address to IP address.
