IP addressing

again could not understand the question,, plz explain

An IP address is a 32 bit binary number usually represented as 4 decimal values, each representing 8 bits, in the range 0 to 255 (known as octets) separated by decimal points. This is known as "dotted decimal" notation. Example: 140.179.220.200 It is sometimes useful to view the values in their binary form. 140 .179 .220 .200 10001100.10110011.11011100.11001000 Every IP address consists of two parts, one identifying the network and one identifying the node. The Class of the address and the subnet mask determine which part belongs to the network address and which part belongs to the node address. Address Classes There are 5 different address classes. You can determine which class any IP address is in by examining the first 4 bits of the IP address. * Class A addresses begin with 0xxx, or 1 to 126 decimal. * Class B addresses begin with 10xx, or 128 to 191 decimal. * Class C addresses begin with 110x, or 192 to 223 decimal. * Class D addresses begin with 1110, or 224 to 239 decimal. * Class E addresses begin with 1111, or 240 to 254 decimal. Addresses beginning with 01111111, or 127 decimal, are reserved for loopback and for internal testing on a local machine. [You can test this: you should always be able to ping 127.0.0.1, which points to yourself] Class D addresses are reserved for multicasting. Class E addresses are reserved for future use. They should not be used for host addresses. Now we can see how the Class determines, by default, which part of the IP address belongs to the network (N) and which part belongs to the node (n). * Class A -- NNNNNNNN.nnnnnnnn.nnnnnnnn.nnnnnnnn * Class B -- NNNNNNNN.NNNNNNNN.nnnnnnnn.nnnnnnnn * Class C -- NNNNNNNN.NNNNNNNN.NNNNNNNN.nnnnnnnn In the example, 140.179.220.200 is a Class B address so by default the Network part of the address (also known as the Network Address) is defined by the first two octets (140.179.x.x) and the node part is defined by the last 2 octets (x.x.220.200). In order to specify the network address for a given IP address, the node section is set to all "0"s. In our example, 140.179.0.0 specifies the network address for 140.179.220.200. When the node section is set to all "1"s, it specifies a broadcast that is sent to all hosts on the network. 140.179.255.255 specifies the example broadcast address. Note that this is true regardless of the length of the node section. More logic than maths, although maths obviously plays apart.

impossible for sure. may be logic works with some maths

how can you do this...can you explain..

TELL ME HOW CAN I DO THAT??

yah there are many things to do with ip address.by this a pesonal pc can be hacked.a creadit card number can be stolen,and a remort computer can be oparete.many things can be do by ip
