The Internet and IP addresses relationship

These are my thoughts about the relationship between the internet and ip address. The internet is growing everyday. Information is being made every second even milliseconds. Although all these numbers seem complex, the internet can easily determine who sent  these information. There are so many possibilities in the internet that have become a reality because of its users. It is the users of the internet who publish these information. Some people dont bother knowing what is going on in the internet while some people know a lot about the internet and they either take or provide the information. Information is being made from videos, blogs, forums and many more. These information come from a  specific source and these sources are determined by the ip address.

To be able to connect to the internet a user must have a subscription to the internet service provider (ISP). The ISP then provides a unique public ip address to every subscribed connection to the internet. These addresses can determine the location of the user who subscribe. Ever wonder who is the sender of an unknown email address or the location of an ip address just for fun?. You can easily know their location. A sample of this services who can provide the ip of the user to the public are emails. Email companies have a function that will allow you to get the ip of the sender and you can do that by using this guide. This is now a possibility because the internet is being made by the users  who have ip address. Although not all services provided by the internet can give us an ip address, some companies can determine that of the user but simply protect their users privacy. So, as you been reading the ip address is somewhat your identity in the internet.

Locate your Local IP and Public IP address

To connect to a network you will have to acquire IP addresses both local and public. Your local IP address is a private IP address that is  reserved for private network use and is within three reserved IP address range. Your public IP address is what the internet sees given by your ISP and is not in the range reserved for private IP addresses.

In order to locate your local IP address for windows you can use the ipconfig command in cmd and it will be the the number beside IPv4 address.

Next, lets find your public IP address. These are some ways on how to get them.

1. You will be able to see your public IP address by visiting this POST.

2. You can go to whatismyip.com and will be shown like this.

3. You can go to google.com and type "what is my ip", at the top of the results your public IP will be shown.

IPv6 Guide

IPv6 is to be IPv4's successor. With more encreasing devices that needs to be connected to the internet it will IPv6 to accomodate all the needed addresses.

We most commonly use IPv4 the first version of internet protocol to be internationally deployed for addressing. The news is that IPv4 is running out of addresses so Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) developed a revision  IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6).

IPv6  has a larger address space it has a 128-bit addresses allowing for 2^128, or approximately 3.4×10^38 addresses which is more than IPv4 32-bit addresses, allowing for only 4,294,967,296 unique addresses worldwide. IPv6 addresses will look something like this 2607:f0d0:1002:0051:0000:0000:0000:0004
compared to 192.168.1.1 of IPv4

Some major advantages of IPv6 is stateless address auto configuration (SLAAC) which is the automatically  configure of hosts when connected to a routed IPv6 network using the Neighbor Discovery Protocol. Multicasting which is a transmission of a packet to multiple destinations in a single send command. Network-layer security which is Internet Protocol Security (IPsec).

IPv6 just launched last 06 june 2012. Since most companies who sell products like routers and internet providers still use IPv4 it will take some time for the transition and some time to getting used to. 

So since IPv6 has a large address space it will be providing internet addresses for a very long time.

What is my MAC address?

Your MAC (Media Access Control) address is a identifier for physical number network adapters installed on your computer, like IEEE 802, and Ethernet assigned in the network interface cards (NICs) by manufacturer for identification.

To find your MAC address for windows just Open cmd.exe > Go to Start > Search programs and files or run > type cmd click enter or > click open cmd.exe at the results > type ipconfig /all. Your MAC address will be the physical address under Ethernet adapter local area connection.

To find your MAC address for you Linux system use su to become root. Type ipconfig -a and eth0 results will have a HWaddr. The number next to HWaddr is your MAC address.

How to know a domains IP address using ping

A domain is a identifier for IP addresses. We use domains because it is much easier to remember domains rather than IP address. If you choose http://74.125.71.102 compared to http://google.com then google.com will be the right choice. We barely use the IP address that is cloaked by the domain but we will never know until they might be useful. So here is a guide to get the IP address of a domain. We will be using Windows 7 as the OS for this guide.

Open cmd.exe
Steps: Go to Start > Search programs and files > type cmd click enter or > click open cmd.exe at the results

Just type ping <domain> as the command. Example in the image below and just copy the IP address and your done!

New Google Search Tools And Set Location

Google has new functions in the left side bar that will let you set your location option and more advanced options. With this search results will be defined to you location. What it does have is an option to change your provinces and cities location but not the country. The new functions are seen in the images below.

If you click the more search terms link there will be a drop down menu where you can choose how the results will be shown by duration and the advanced options.

The command promt (cmd.exe) is the command line interpreter. To use use these commands go to Start-Run or Start search and enter "cmd" to open a Command window.

IP Addressing and Classes

How To Color Code Category 6 (Cat 6) Patch Cable

Cat 6 cable is used for Ethernet connection on local are network (LAN). Straight through cable is used to connect computers, printers to networking devices such as hubs and switches. Crossover cable is used to connect two like devices without the use of an uplink port. There are 8 wires on a Cat 6 cable with a specific color. Both ends of Cat 6 wire will be connected to an RJ-45 pin and both pins will have specific wiring setup. In this guide we will be able to use color coding to make a twisted pair straight through and crossover cable. We will use wiring schemes T-568A and T-568B
