Field Description
IP Address The Internet is a collection of networks with users that communicate with each other. Each communication carries the address of the
source and destination networks and the particular machine within the network associated with the user or host computer at each end.
This address is called the IP address (Internet Protocol address). Each node on the IP network must be assigned a unique IP address
that is made up of a network identifier and a host identifier. Enter the IP address as a dotted-decimal notation with the decimal value
of each octet separated by a period, for example, 192.168.7.27.
Subnet Mask Most TCP/IP networks use subnets in order to effectively manage routed IP addresses. Having an organization's network divided into
subnets allows it to be connected to the Internet with a single shared network address, for example, 255.255.255.0.
