Routable addresses is a type of IP addresses which can be accessed outside of your network. For instance, 192.168.*.* is not routable and can be accessed only within your LAN. From another side 66.294.91.104 is Google's IP address and can be accessed not only within google's LAN but also from any point of internet (WAN).
IPX/SPX : Routable // TCP/IP : Routable // NetBEUI : Not Routable
When running a WHOIS query on a non-routable IP address, such as a private IP address from the reserved ranges defined in RFC 1918 (e.g., 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, 192.168.0.0/16), the query will typically return a response indicating that the address is not publicly routable on the internet. This is because non-routable IP addresses are meant for internal use within private networks and are not globally unique. As a result, WHOIS databases do not contain information about these addresses.
An IP address has a consistent and predictable route for traffic coming from the internet. A MAC address is not routable.
the IP address is assigned to your computer by your DHCP server you can only have 1 true ip address, although you can have ghost ip address and private ip addresses Private Addresses are not routable through the internet Ghosts IP addresses are normally used to cover something up, usually something illegal ;)
Because it is not IP based.
Jillian Schamloefell! Alas I cannot find the answer.
NetBEUI is the only listed protocol that is not routable; the rest are.
A routable protocol contains a network address as well as a device address. Non-routable protocol, on the other hand, regulate the transfer of data and always makes use of interior routing system to transmit data.
The IP address 10.255.255.255 is a private IP address used in local networks. It is part of the Class A private IP range (10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255) defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). This address is typically used for network configurations and is not routable on the public internet, meaning it cannot be directly accessed from external networks.
You cannot directly convert a local IP address (such as those in the ranges of 192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, or 172.16.x.x to 172.31.x.x) to a global (public) IP address. Local IP addresses are used within a private network and are not routable on the internet. To access the global internet, a network device like a router uses Network Address Translation (NAT) to map local IP addresses to a single public IP address. When local devices send requests to the internet, the router changes the source IP to its public IP, allowing for communication with external servers.
In an IP address, "172" typically refers to the first octet of a private IP address range defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). Specifically, the range 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255 is designated for private networks, meaning that these addresses are not routable on the public internet and are used for internal networking purposes. This allows organizations to create their own local networks without using globally unique public IP addresses.
