Understanding IP Address and Subnetting

1.0-255 range
2.in ip address it has network part and host part
3.a modem can connect only 253 machines
4.network part if 32 no machines will be connected
5.public ip-it will not change it is unique
6.private ip-for a particular network
7.When you access a website, your device sends a request to a server using its IP address. The server then responds back to your IP address, ensuring proper communication between devices over the internet.
8.A subnet (subnetwork) is a smaller division of a larger network. Subnetting helps break a large network into smaller, manageable parts.
9.CIDR Notation:Instead of writing subnet masks in full form, we use CIDR.
10.Subnetting divides networks into smaller parts
11.Subnetting improves performance, security, and management
12.Understanding IP addresses and subnetting is essential for anyone interested in networking or backend systems. These concepts form the foundation of how devices communicate over the internet. With proper subnetting, networks become more efficient, secure, and scalable.
