Appendix A How to Manually find your PC’s IP and MAC address 1) In Window’s open the Command Prompt pro gram 2) Type Ipconfig /all and <enter> • Your PC’s IP address is the one entitled IP address (192.168.1.77) • The router’s IP address is the one entitled Default Gateway (192.
IP Address and Netwo rk (Subnet) Mask: IP stands for Internet Protocol. An IP address consists of a series of four numbers separated by periods, that ident ifies a singl e, unique Internet comput er host in an IP net work. Example: 192.168.2.1. It consists of 2 portions: the IP network addr ess, and the host identifier.
particular network (as opposed to valid IP address num ber s recognized by the Internet, which must be assigned b y InterNIC). TCP/IP, UDP: Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Prot ocol (TCP/IP ) and Unreliable Datagr am Protocol (UDP). T CP/IP is the standard protocol for data transmissio n over the In ternet.
