 IPV4 Definition
We define IPV4 |
IPV4 - An outdated version of the IP protocol that is still in use on the Internet. It uses a 32-bit addressing scheme, represented by four 8-bit (0-255) numbers separated by periods, such as 123.3.12.255. The addressing scheme allows for a maximum of about 4.3 billion numbers (256*256*256*256). This gets to be a problem as more and more devices are connected to the Internet. ISPs have taken to using Network Address Translation to get around the problem for now, but IPv6 is the ultimate solution. IPv4 may be with us for a long time, even though it is technically outdated. |
