IPv4 Addresses IPv4 Addresses are 32 bit addresses: 1010100111000111010001011000100 10101001 11000111 01000101 10001001 We use dotted notation (or dotted decimal notation) to represent the value of each byte (octet) of the IP address in decimal. 10101001 11000111 01000101 10001001 169 . 199 . 69 . 137

Subnet Mask
Subnet Masks 11111111111111110000000000000000 An IP address is a hierarchical address that is made up of two parts: A network portion A host portion. Subnet Mask Used to define the: Network portion Host portion 32 bits Contiguous set of 1’s followed by a contiguous set of 0’s 1’s: Network portion 0’s: Host portion

Network Portion Host Portion 192 168 11 The prefix length is the number of bits set to 1 in the subnet mask. It is written in “slash notation”, a “/” followed by the number of bits set to 1. For example: IP address: 192.168.11.10 255.255.255.0 Is the same as: 192.168.11.10 /24

Subnet Masks So how do hosts figure out which part of the address is the network portion? Hosts AND the IPv4 address and the subnet mask. “1” bits refer to the network portion. “0” bits refer to the host portion. Hosts actually use a the Boolean “AND” operation to accomplish this task. This tells them what network they belong to.
Boolean AND Rules 1 “ANDed” with 1 = 1 0 “ANDed” with 1 = 0 192.168.10.1 /24 0 “ANDed” with anything = 0 IP Address Network Portion Subnet Mask 1 10 168 192 0000 0001 0000 1010 1010 1000 1100 0000 0000 0000 1111 1111 1100 0000 1010 1000 0000 1010 0000 0000 192 168 10

Same network: The MAC address associated with the device’s Destination IP Address. Different network: The MAC address associated with the IP Address of the Default Gateway.
Destination MAC Address? Same network? So, here is the big question: How do does the sending host know if the Source IP Address and Destination IP Address are on the same network?
Destination MAC Address? 192.168.1.10 192.168.1.11 Same network? AND AND My Network = 192.168.1.0 Destination Network = 192.168.1.0 Same network? YES!

Host Address 10.1.1.10 /24 In IPv4 addresses, host addresses are the addresses between the network address and the broadcast address devices in that network. The host address does not have all 0 bits or all 1 bits in the host portion. It is important to identify the first host address and the last host address. Hosts within a network can be assigned IP addresses within this range.
1st Host Address The host portion of the first host address will contain all 0 bits with a 1 bit for the lowest order or right-most bit. (“All 0’s and a 1.”) This address is always one greater than the network address. For example the first host address is 10.1.1.1 /24. NOTE: It is common in many addressing schemes to use the first host address for the router or default gateway address.
Last Host Address The host portion of the last host address will contain all 1 bits with a 0 bit for the lowest order or right-most bit. (“All 1’s and a 0.”) This address is always one less than the broadcast address. For example, the last host address is 10.1.1.254.

Addresses for User Devices
Addresses for User Devices Hosts are assigned IP addresses from the range of available addresses in the network. These IP addresses can be assigned either: Statically Dynamically
Static Assignment Useful for printers, servers, and other networking devices that do not change location often and need to be accessible to clients on the network based on a fixed IP address. Increased control of network resources. However, static addressing can be time-consuming to enter on each host.
Dynamic Assignment Instead of manually assigning IP addresses (subnet mask, default gateway, DNS addresses), it is easier to have IP addresses assigned automatically. This is done using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). The DHCP server requires that a block of addresses, called an address pool, is used for assigning to the DHCP clients on a network.
How Does DHCP Work? A DHCP Server must be available. It must have a pre-configured range (scope) of IP addresses. As clients come online they contact the DHCP server and request an address. The DHCP server chooses an address and allocates it to that host.

Unicast, Multicast, and Broadcast
Destination Unicasts, Multicasts, and Broadcasts Source IP addresses are always unicast Unicasts: Packet travels from one host to another specific host. Multicasts: Packet travels from one host to a select number of other hosts. Supports voice and audio broadcasts, news feeds, distribution of software, re-imaging clients off peak times. Broadcasts: Packet travels from one host to all hosts on the local network.
Unicast Addresses 62
Multicast Addresses For example: One hosts sends packets to the multicast IP address 224.10.10.5/24. Multicast clients subscribe to the multicast group and listen for packets destined to 224.10.10.5. 63
Broadcast Addresses Directed broadcast is sent to all hosts on a specific network. An example destination IPv4 address is 192.168.1.255 /24. Limited broadcast is to all hosts on the local network. These packets use a destination IPv4 address 255.255.255.255. 64
Private vs. Public Addresses
Private Addresses Most IPv4 addresses are public IP addresses. These are reachable IPv4 addresses on the Internet. However, there are blocks of addresses that are private addresses and are never propagated on the Internet. Packets with a source or destination private IP address are not propagated by Internet routers. Internet routers / firewalls block or translate these addresses. Private addresses are usually converted to public IP addresses using NAT (Network Address Translation)
Private Addresses Private addresses are defined in RFC 1918. The private address blocks are: 10.0.0.0 /8: 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255 172.16.0.0 /12: 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255 192.168.0.0 /16: 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255 RFC 6598, IANA reserved 100.64.0.0/10 known as shared address space. Similar to RFC 1918, but intended only for use in service provider networks.
Other Special Addresses Refer to RFC 3330 Loopback address: 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.0 – 127.255.255.255 Hosts use to direct traffic to themselves. Link-Local addresses: 169.254.0.0/16 169.254.0.0 – 169.254.255.255 Host can automatically assign itself an address if it has none. TEST-NET addresses: 192.0.2.0 to 192.0.2.255 (192.0.2.0 /24) 68
Special Addresses TEST-NET Addresses 192.0.2.0 to 192.0.2.255 (192.0.2.0 /24) The address block is set aside for teaching and learning purposes and are sometimes used in documentation and network examples. You may often find these addresses used with the domain names example.com or example.net in RFCs, vendor, and protocol documentation. Addresses within this block should not appear on the Internet. 69
How addressing space use to be assigned. Classful Addressing How addressing space use to be assigned. Historically, RFC1700 grouped the unicast ranges into specific sizes referred to as Classful addressing for IPv4 (never existed for IPv6): Class A, B, and C addresses: 0.0.0.0 - 223.255.255.255 Multicast addresses: 224.0.0.0 - 239.255.255.255 Experimental addresses: 240.0.0.0 - 255.255.255.254 70

Can now allocate a large range of network addresses based on customer requirements
Public Addresses
Public Addresses Public addresses are required on the Internet and they must be unique. The use of public addresses is regulated and allocated to each organization separately. RIRs (Regional Internet Registries) typically provide public addresses to ISPs. Companies obtain their IPv4 address blocks from an ISP. In a sense, the ISP loans or rents these addresses to the organization.
RIRs These registration companies are called Regional Internet Registries (RIRs).

The 3 Tiers of ISP ISPs are designated by a hierarchy based on their level of connectivity to the Internet backbone. Each lower tier obtains connectivity to the backbone via a connection to a higher tier ISP. The Internet backbone is built on a three tier hierarchy. Tier 1 = AT&T, Verizon (UUNET), SAVVIS, Sprintlink, Bell, Level 3 Networks, Qwest, … Tier 2 = Cogent, Eastlink, Orion, Canarie, nLayer, France Télécom, … Tier 3 = Local ISPs
