      What does the IP address 172.17.4.250/24 represent?

      The IP address 172.17.4.250/24 determines the host address. IP address forms from the network address and the host address. The /24 indicates that the Network address is 172.17.4.0 and the broadcast address for the IP is 172.17.4.1 to 172.17.4.254.

      The host address is for the computers to communicate with each other and the switch uses it to transfer the packet to the correct host. While the network address was allocated to the network for the router to send the packet after then the switch took over and transfer the packets to the destination with the help of the host address. Because of the network and the host address, the routing becomes faster, and the transmission increases.

      Host address

      The physical address is the host address of the computer. Simply, the ip address is the host address. it is a 32-it address that specifies the host in TCP/IP network. The IP address is in the decimal forms separated by the dots, Such as 192.168.123.132.

      Example:

      The IP address 192.168.123.132 will convert to the binary form which is 11000011101011000000111100001010 it is very difficult to identify them so they are divided into 8 digits and the section of the digits are called asoctect.11000011.11011011.00001111.00001010 this is also easy as compared to the other one but to understand the sequence is difficult that’s why the decimal form of the IP address is the most suitable and easy to remember.

      In the TCP/IP wide area network, efficient work is possible with both host and network addresses. The router which is responsible for packets transferal on a network doesn’t know the location of the host or destination where the packet needs to be reached. the router has the information of the network while the host has the information stored in the routing table to transfer the packet to its destination in the network. The packet is first transferred to the network after then to the destination host.

      For the best process let’s have a look at 192.168.123.132 have two parts 192.168.123 Network .132 host or 192.198.123.0 -the network address and 0.0.0.132 as the host address.

      Working of the host address

      The ip is allocated on the interface which is responsible for the computer connection in a network. And the interfaces are given with unique IP addresses. And the interface with the same IP does not work. Let’s understand the Host address with an example, suppose we have four computers C1MC2, C3, C4 which are connected and they have the same IP address which is 4.4.4.4/8. the C1 sent the data to C4 since the IP address is the same the C1 sets the destination address 4.4.4.4/8.

      When the packets reach C2, C3, and C4, the destination IP address is checked and they all have the same configured IP address that’s they all assume that the packet is for them and starts the processing. When the other packet find that the packet is not for them, they discard the packets after then it will reach the C4 computer and the processing of the C2 and C3 is unnecessary.
