IP Address
ip address
Because without an IP address a device cannot communicate on a network. Within a LAN, an IP address must be unique.
An IP address must be unique within a LAN; the combination of the network and host portion must present a number that is not duplicated anywhere else in the network. Outside of a LAN the IP addresses do not have to be unique, except that the network id portion can only be used by the organization that owns the IP network address. The host portion does not need to be unique across all LANs within an enterprise network.
The computer's MAC address must be unique, and the internal IP address must be unique. Either of these being the same as another computer's causes issues which won't let your computer connect.
Each IP address must be unique within the local network.
No. Each computer has to have a unique name on the network (example: Desktop-John, Desktop-Matt, Laptop-Kim)
If you are referring to a flat network protocol such as NetBEUI, the problem in a large network is that the device names must be unique (up to 15 characters). In a large network there is a good chance of attempted duplication of the name, which is not allowed. For example, if a device is called "john" in the network, then no other device could have that name. It would have to be "john1" or something that makes it unique.
The requirements to make a peer to peer network are you need a unique name for each computer, a similar network protocol, and supported cabling by the network cards. The computers must have a way to communicate with each other.
Yes, all devices on a network must have a unique IP address or you will have an IP conflict and one of the devices will have its network connection disabled.
no - to create a safe network, users' signing keys must be unique and private
The computers name must be unique for all computers on the same network
