A bit is a 1 or a 0 to the computer. A byte is 8 bits. A byte can represent any number from 0-256.
for example: 00000001 = 1 / 00000010 = 2 / 00000100 = 4 / 00000111 = 7 (4+2+1).
This probably wont make you understand it but anyway an IP address like 192.168.1.101 consists of 4 bytes, or 32 bits (8 * 4). Same thing with 154.12.154.254 or 1.1.1.1
What else can I help you with?
How does a computer organize bytes held in ram?
each bit of RAM has a unique address
What portion of a MAC address encodes an identifier representing the manufacturer of the card?
The first 3 bytes show this. It's called the OUI, Organizationally Unique Identifier. If you type "getmac" in windows, you should see the 6 byte address, and the first 3 bytes are the ones that you are concerned about. Each OUI is unique to the manufacturer of the network card.
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.
Is network and IP address the same?
its different......basically.network contain hosts can be server or workstation each has unique adddress (thats ip address) to communicate each other
Which two items must be unique to each computer and cannot be duplicated on a 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.

Is IP address is unique for each OS?
No, the Operating System has nothing to do with the IP address, which is assigned by an administrator (usually through DHCP).it is unique for each device in a network.
What type of address does the IP protocol use to identify a unique network and name?
An IP Address, or Internet Protocol Address. Each device has one.
What is used as a unique NIC identifier?
A Media Access Control (MAC) address is used as a unique identifier for network interface cards (NICs). Each device connected to a network has a unique MAC address assigned by the manufacturer.
What address is an unique 12 digit hexadecimal number that is in each network device?
The network card's serial number, usually known as the MAC address.
How do you differentiate computers on the same network?
Each computer has a unique name, IP address and MAC address. (not MAC as in McIntosh.)
What is the Network layer unique identifier assigned to each device on a TCPIP network?
The IP address of course! Think about it. It's on the network layer, It is unique, and it's assigned to every device on the internet!

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.
Does each computer at a library have a different IP Address?
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.
