4 number separated by full stops
e.g. 192.168.112.20

22
Q

How many unique hosts can a Class C network have?

A

254

23
Q

How many IPv4 addresses are reserved and not available to the public ?

A

Around 600 million

24
Q

Roughly how many IPv4 addresses are there?

A

Around 4 billion

25
Q

In what way is IPv4 limited?

Private Addressing
Testing
Documentation

28
Q

What is CIDR ?

A

Classless Inter Domain Routing
When you add a /# e.g /24 at the end of an IP address to let you know how many numbers in the IP address are in the network bit. In this case 24 bits.

29
Q

What is an IP address used for ?

A

Uniquely identifying a device on a network.

30
Q

Why is a 32-bit IPv4 Address written as a dotted quad?

A

To improve readability for humans.

The computer converts this number into binary using a 32-bit long string of 1’s and 0’s

31
