By submitting form you agree to our Privacy PolicyWhat is an IP Address?
In non-technical terms, an IP address is the numerical label which identifies a device (computer, printer, smart phone, camera, etc.) connected to a network such as a local area network or the wider Internet.
A private IP address, also referred to as local IP address, is allocated by your router to all devices connected to it. This IP address is not accessible over the Internet – they are only used for communications within internal networks.
A public IP address, also referred to as external IP address, is allocated by an ISP to your business or home router. Typically, you will be given a new IP address every time you connect to the Internet. You can find your public IP address using many online tools.
