1.1 IP Address Overview
1.1.1 IP Address Classification and Representation
An IP address is a 32-bit address allocated to a device connected to the Internet. It
consists of two fields: net-id and host-id. To facilitate IP address management, IP
addresses are divided into five classes, as shown in
Figure 1-1.

Class A, Class B, and Class C IP addresses are unicast addresses. Class D IP
addresses are multicast addresses and Class E addresses are reserved for future
special use. The first three types are commonly used.
IP addresses are in the dotted decimal notation. Each IP address contains four decimal
integers, with each integer corresponding to one byte (for example,10.110.50.101).
Some IP addresses are reserved for special use. The IP address ranges that can be
used by users are listed in
Table 1-1.
