Method 1: Manually assign an IP address. You can manually assign an IP address, network mask, and even DNS servers to a particular network interface. This is useful if you need the IP address to always be the same, or if you have no DHCP server. (See #2). It has the disadvantages of requiring the network administrator to keep track of the manual IP address in order to prevent conflicts, and also requires manually changing it when necessary.
Method 2: DHCP. This is the most common way of assigning IP addresses. A DHCP server (DHCP = Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) receives a request from a workstation, consults an internal list of available and assigned IP addresses, and then responds with an IP address and other information such as DNS servers and default gateways. This has the advantage of being very easy to use, and requires a lot less work on the part of the network administrator. However, if the server or service is unavailable for some reason, computers may not have the ability to set up their addresses except for APIPA. (See #3).
Method 3: APIPA (Automatic Private IP Addressing, a.k.a. Zero Configuration Network). This isn't really a method per se. If your computer is unable to contact a DHCP server and has not been manually configured, it may set up an APIPA address. It assigns itself a random address in the range of 169.254.0.0/16. (169.254.0.1 - 169.254.255.254).
What else can I help you with?

The IP address is of class C.
Assigning Simple Networked Computer IP Address?
my computer isn't assigning an ip address and my modem is online hoe do i connect to the internet..
How are URLs assigned to IP addresses?
URLs are assigned randomly to differently IP addresses. IP addresses are the numbers that identify a person's location online; it gives the general location and device.
What are IP addresses called that begin with 172.16?
They are normally the IP addresses which your computer uses to talk to your internet router/modem. They are not the same as the IP address that your router is known by on the broadband link.
Why ip addresses are dynamic?
== == Dynamic IP addresses are most frequently assigned on LANs and broadband networks by Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) servers. They are used because it avoids the administrative burden of assigning specific static addresses to each device on a network. It also allows many devices to share limited address space on a network if only some of them will be online at a particular time. In most current desktop operating systems, dynamic IP configuration is enabled by default so that a user does not need to manually enter any settings to connect to a network with a DHCP server. DHCP is not the only technology used to assigning dynamic IP addresses. Dialup and some broadband networks use dynamic address features of the Point-to-Point Protocol. source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address
Which of these steps do you need to take to configure a classful dynamic routing protocol?
selecting a routing protocol assigning IP network numbers Assigning network addresses to interfaces
Which IP address is reserved for Automatic private ip addressing?
I think you're thinking of the protocol used to automatically assign IP addresses? An IP address does not assign an IP address, and IP address is a node on a network where data can be sent or received. The protocol used for automatic assigning of IP addresses would be DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).
Can you modify the ip addressing properties of a workstation withouy being on it?
Yes, it is possible to modify the IP addressing properties of a workstation without being physically present at the device. This can be done remotely using various methods, such as remote desktop software, network management tools, or command-line utilities like PowerShell or SSH, provided that remote access is enabled and appropriate permissions are granted. Additionally, network configuration can be adjusted through DHCP settings on the router or server managing the IP addresses.
What is network address in IP?
ip addressing is simply configuring the router for your local network by assigning IP addresses for each client in your network creating logical networks inside your local network. for more info see related link.
What is the answer for 6.5.7 packet tracer-assigning addresses?
Ip address is 10.0.1.0 Gateway is 10.0.1.254 if not Try this update 01/30/2014 IP Address: 10.0.1.28 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway: 10.0.1.254
What is responsible for assigning IP addresses to network administrators?
IP addresses are typically assigned to network administrators by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) and regional internet registries (RIRs) such as ARIN, RIPE NCC, and APNIC. These organizations allocate blocks of IP addresses to Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and large organizations based on their needs. Network administrators then assign specific IP addresses from these allocated blocks to devices within their local networks. In smaller networks, administrators may also use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) servers to automate the assignment of IP addresses to devices.
The IP addresses available to the Internet are called?
Public IP addresses
What is a private IP?
The internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) has reserved the following three blocks of the IP address space for private internets (local networks): 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255Also, IP addresses in the range of 169.254.0.0 -169.254.255.255 are reserved for Automatic Private IP Addressing. These IP's should not be used on the Internet. I usually use 192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.2, etc. and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 when assigning static IP addresses to computers on a small Local Area Networks (LANs). If a DHCP server is also on the LAN it's scope (range of IP addresses that it can assign to computers on the LAN set to obtain their IP addresses automatically) should be adjusted so it does not interfere with locally assigned static IP addresses.
What is address allocation?
Address allocation is the process of assigning unique identifiers, known as addresses, to devices within a network. This ensures that each device can communicate effectively without conflicts. In IP networking, for example, address allocation involves assigning IP addresses to devices to facilitate data transmission across the internet. Proper address allocation is crucial for efficient network management and resource utilization.
What happens to a workstation with an expired IP lease?
That doesn't happen. If it does the workstation gives up the IP address and remains unconfigured until the DHCP server grants it another IP address.
What protocols have made rarp largely unnecessary on modern tcp ip networks?
BOOTP, and eventually DHCP, replaced RARP. Both BOOTP and DHCP offer a more robust, flexible method of assigning IP addresses.
Suppose you have a workstation that uses the IP address 203.12.176.55 on a traditional IPv4 network To what network class does the workstation belong?
The IP address is of class C.
