When you are opening ports to allow incoming connections to your computer, your computer must be assigned a static internal IP address, to ensure that the incoming connections always go to the correct computer.

That is a dynamic ip address. It is for the current connection only because it can change the next time an ip is assigned.

What kind of printer has an IP address?

A printer is assigned an IP address when used in a networking environment and only if it is used with a printer routing device wich will assign the printer an available IP address from the main router to share it over the network.


A network administrator is building a network for a small business that has 22 hosts the ISP has assigned only one internet routable IP address which IP address block can the network administrator use?

The administrator can set up a Local Area Network (LAN) behind a firewall in which he can assign whatever IP address block he wishes. The firewall and router will then need to be configured to Network Address Translate (NAT) the 'hidden' internal IP addresses used on the LAN to the one assigned by the ISP when network traffic needs to leave the LAN.


What happens to the MAC address when you move a computer to another network?

The MAC address is a unique identifier for a networking card. Each networking card has a MAC address assigned to it during it's manufacturing, and thus it does not change when a computer moves between networks (unlike an IP address which is assigned by the network). A few things to note: - A computer only has a MAC address if it has a physical or virtual network card - A computer has as many MAC addresses as it has networking cards - MAC addresses CAN be modified before being broadcast to the rest of the network, however generally this results in the computer not receiving intended traffic and requires specialized software


What are two ways an IP address can be assigned to a PC?

you don't assign one yourself, persay... They are more or less assigned for you. With dialup connections, each time you connect to your ISP they give you a temporary IP to use while you are connected. When you disconnect, that IP is thrown back into a pool of other IP's and ready for the next person who connects.Broadband and higher connections use static IP's quite often because of their "always on" capabilities. Since they never disconnect they are going to be the only ones using it and are often assigned an IP by their provider/ISP. Once that IP is assigned they can use it to directly link websites, ftps, telnets, etc to a specific computer. In order to get it changed, you would have to contact the provider and talk with them.[Or, if you have been granted control of your own public network, you may do this directly by choosing and assigning an IP address within your "owned" public subnet to the machine(s) you choose. Beware that this means you need to handle your own "routing, switching and security (usually your own firewall)". JMH]We can assign ip address to the windows based computer using these steps .Click Start, click Control Panel, click '''Network and Internet Connections, and then click Network Connections.'''Right-click the network connection that is connected to the private ICS network, and then click Properties.On the General tab, click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) in the '''This connection uses the following items list, and then click Properties.'''On the General tab, click '''Use the following IP address. Configure the entries as follows: #* IP Address: The IP address you chose for this client (for example, 192.168.0.100). #* Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 #* Default Gateway: 192.168.0.1 #* Click '''Use the following DNS server addresses, and then type 192.168.0.1 in the '''Preferred DNS server box.'''''' '''Click Advanced, and then click the DNS tab.In the '''DNS suffix for this connection box, type MSHOME.NET.'''Click OK.Click OK.:Any IP (Internet Protocol) address can be assigned to a Linux machine with a single step using the 'ifconfig' command. You must be 'root' user to issue this command. As is clearly illustrated by the lengthy, over complicated sequence of steps in the answer above, assigning two Internet Protocol addresses to a single Ethernet interface on a Linux host is refreshingly simple and elegant...ifconfig eth0 192.168.2.2 netmask 255.255.255.0To bring the interface up or down, in the example above, it is interface eth0,issue the command:ifconfig eth0 up orifconfig eth0 down No wonder Linux and it's BSD (Berkeley Software Distribution) counterparts arerunning the vast majority of the web servers on the Internet, besides the factLinux and friends are faster, more user friendly (IMHO anyway) and of course,far more reliable (not to mention more powerful).

What is ip address for?

ip address is basically the address of your internet connection, like a=each and every house is registered with the government and the address is known, likewise, your internet connection is registered with your ISP(internet service provider). ip address can be either static or dynamic, like the words suggest, static ip address will remain the same whereas dynamic ips will change from time to time(each time you connect). there are ways to change your ip address, which require software, but its only needed by hackers or crackers..... you wont be needing it.....

What types of problems could result from having a mixture of statically assigned and dynamically assigned addresses on same network?

The only problem you might run into, is statically assigning an ip address that is in the dhcp address pool. Make sure you know what the dhcp pool is, and assign static addresses outside of that range.
