APPENDIX A GLOSSAR Y User of this manual should be familiar with following definitions: ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is a protocol for mapping an Internet Protocol address (IP address) to a physical machine address that is recognized in the local network. For example, the IP address in use today is an address that is 32-bits long. In an Ethern[...]

Appendix B IP Address An IP address is a unique 32-bit address assigned to a computer and includes: • A network ID number identifying a network. • A host ID number identifying a computer on the network. All IP addresses have been divided into three smaller groups (classes) A, B and C • Class A addresses have 8-bits of network ID and 24-bits o[...]

Appendix C IP Netmask IP Netmask or Subnet Mask is a 32-bit pattern of ones and zeros used to determine network portion of an IP address from the host portion of the IP address. Subnet mask is a network ID that is created by borrowing bits from host portion of IP address and using them as part of a network ID. The table below shows a default subnet[...]
