An Internet Protocol address (IP address, for short) allows your computer to send and receive information over the internet. IP addresses are composed of numbers and letters to make them all unique and prevent cybercriminal activity. Even when there are four different classifications of IP addresses, they all have the same purpose: communicate your electronic device with your local network and internet router.
You will need your IP address to add a new printer or communicate with local devices on the same network. On the other hand, the Internet Protocol address allow users to understand how the information is shared.
