We interact with the Internet Protocol (IP) every day, often without realizing it. Whenever you visit a website or perform an online search, your browser retrieves the IP address associated with that URL or search engine to load the page.

IP addresses are broadly classified into two categories: private and public.

Private IPs are used within local networks like your home WiFi or company internet and follow specific ranges such as 10.x.x.x, 172.16.x.x-172.31.x.x, and 192.168.x.x.
