IP Address
An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a logical network-layer identifier assigned to a device to enable addressing and the routing of packets across multiple interconnected networks. Rather than identifying a permanent physical hardware interface or pinpointing an individual's exact physical location, an IP address typically specifies a device's network or regional presence.
