The full form of IP is Internet Protocol. It is a set of rules that govern the format of data packets exchanged over a network. IP addresses are used to identify devices on a network.
public ip-addresses are used in the Internet (they are registered addresses). private ip-addresses are used in local networks. imagine you have a computer in your local network that has a public ip-address and your PC has simultaneously an Internet connection: if you try to ping this pc you wouldn't be able to tell which computer is replying, the local one or the webserver.
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)ARP is primarily used to translate IP Addresses to Ethernet MAC Addresses.
Private IP Addresses are not used for internet data traffic but are intended to be used specifically on internal networks called intranets.
Public IP addresses
Any system in an Ethernet IP network will transmit IP addresses.
They are static.
