IP - Internet Protocol
IP takes care of the communication with other computers. IP is responsible for the sending and receiving data packets over the Internet.
Inside TCP/IP
Inside the TCP/IP standard there are several protocols for handling data communication: TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) communication between applications UDP (User Datagram Protocol) simple communication between applications IP (Internet Protocol) communication between computers ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) for errors and statistics DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) for dynamic addressing
IP is Connection-Less
IP is a "connection-less" communication protocol. IP does not occupy the communication line between two computers. IP reduces the need for network lines. Each line can be used for communication between many different computers at the same time. With IP, messages (or other data) are broken up into small independent "packets" and sent between computers via the Internet. IP is responsible for "routing" each packet to the correct destination.
IP Addresses
Each computer must have an IP address before it can connect to the Internet. Each IP packet must have an address before it can be sent to another computer. This is an IP address: 192.68.20.50 This might be the same IP address: www.w3schools.com
Domain Names
A name is much easier to remember than a 12 digit number. Names used for TCP/IP addresses are called domain names. w3schools.com is a domain name. When you address a web site, like http://www.w3schools.com, the name is translated to a number by a Domain Name Server (DNS). All over the world, DNS servers are connected to the Internet. DNS servers are responsible for translating domain names into TCP/IP addresses. When a new domain name is registered together with a TCP/IP address, DNS servers all over the world are updated with this information.
