There are two Versions of IP addresses that are commonly used on the internet:
IPv4: Internet Protocol Version 4
IPv6: Internet Protocol Version 6
There are two Main Types of IP address that are commonly used on Local and Global Network:

Private IP address: Local IP address
Network Devices
Global Accessibility: Public IP addresses are accessible from anywhere on the internet. They enable
communication between devices on different networks or across the internet.
Network Devices
Local Network Use: Private IP addresses are used within local networks, such as home or office networks.
They facilitate communication between devices within the same network, enabling file sharing, printing,
and other local network services.
Non-Unique: Private IP addresses are not globally unique. Multiple devices on different private networks
can have the same private IP address, as long as they do not connect to the same network simultaneously.
