IP addresses are assigned to a host either dynamically as they join the network, or persistently by configuration of the host hardware or software. Persistent configuration is also known as using a static IP address. In contrast, when a computer's IP address is assigned each time it restarts, this is known as using a dynamic IP address.
Packets that hold Internet Protocol data carry a 4-bit IP version number as the first field of its header. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Currently, only IPv4 and IPv6 packets are seen on the Internet , having IP version numbers 4 and 6, respectively.
In the original design of IPv4, an IP address was divided into two parts: the network identifier was the most significant octet of the address, and the host identifier was the rest of the address. The latter was also called the rest field. This structure permitted a maximum of 256 network identifiers, which was quickly found to be inadequate.
While IPv4 uses 32 bits for addressing, yielding c. 4.3 billion (4.3 × 10 9) addresses, IPv6 uses 128-bit addresses providing c. 3.4 × 10 38 addresses. Although adoption of IPv6 has been slow, as of January 2023 [update] , most countries in the world show significant adoption of IPv6, [ 10 ] with over 41% of Google's traffic being carried ...
