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).
What else can I help you with?
Which three IP addresses are private?
10.35.66.70 192.168.99.5 172.18.88.90
What does 169.254.10.1 indicates?
169.254.10.1 is an IP address generated automatically by a computer when it is unable to lease an address from a DHCP server. It is called an Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) address.
What type of address is 169.254.32.23?
The address 169.254.32.23 is an Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) address. It is part of the reserved IP address range from 169.254.0.1 to 169.254.255.254, which is used by devices to self-assign an IP address when they cannot obtain one from a DHCP server. This allows devices on the same local network to communicate with each other, even in the absence of a DHCP server.
Computer A has an IP address of 169.254.45.21 what does this mean?
This is an APIPA (Automatic Private IP Addressing) address. When Windows computers can't get an IP address from a DHCP server, they automatically assign themselves this address.
What does APIPA stand for?
Automatic Private IP Addressing
What is the full form of APIPA?
Automatic Private IP Addressing
Which private network address is reserved for diagnostic testing of devices?
10.0.0.0
What feature is used to self-assign an ip address if a windows dhcp client is unable to contact a dhcp server?
It's called APIPA (automatic private ip addressing).
Give an example of 2 private address in class A range?
Any address in the 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 range is considered a private (reserved) IP address in the class A address space.
What range does APIPA come from?
APIPA, or Automatic Private IP Addressing, is a feature used in networking that automatically assigns IP addresses in the range of 169.254.0.1 to 169.254.255.254. This range is reserved for devices that cannot obtain an IP address from a DHCP server. When a device is configured to use DHCP and fails to receive an address, it will assign itself an APIPA address within this range, allowing for local communication on the same network segment.
How do you find an APIPA address at first glance?
APIPA - Automatic Private IP Addressing uses a range of addresses 169.254.0.0-169.254.255.255 with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0. If your address starts with 169.254, there is a good chance you are using APIPA.
What is the default IP address of Windows?
If you mean when a computer cannot receive a IP address, it is called APIPA (Automatic Private IP Addressing). What that does is if the computer cannot receive a ip address from the DHCP (Dynamic host control protocol) server. It is assigned a IP address 169.254.0.1 to 169.254.255.254. Note: Keep in mind you will not be able to access the Internet because this is a private address.
