IP Address Question

  1. #1
    If a place had more then 1 computer, like a Library or Office, would they all share the same IP address or would each computer have a different one?

    They'd all have a different local adress, whether they have different public IP's would depend on the network configuration to the best of my knowledge.

    To add to that nobody in their right mind would configure a network with the IP addresses of the connected client devices being publicly addressable. So these clients would all have different LAN addresses but would send and receive packets to the Internet via the same IP or in large enterprises be assigned to one of several addresses which are routable.

    As others have said, your workplace has a Local Area Network(LAN) of computers setup so that they all have a different IP address within that network(the LAN). These are IME, always in the 192.168.XXX.XXX range. When you connect to the internet from one of these computers, you do it through a router within that network. The router itself will have an IP for the LAN and have one for the internet.

    Correct me if I'm wrong.

    Apparently I can't send a PM because I have to many PM saved, even though I deleted them, so I'll send it here publicly...

    Dear Sophie,

    Where is your SQL injection thread? I come across a site that requires a password that is exactly 8 digits long(no shorter, no longer) and I can insert what ever I want into it, regardless of length or characters(but only via a proxy). Any help would be appreciated.

    What about ipv6? And ip address for each and every device on the webz? No more need from stuff like STUN or TURN or port forwarding. What with the router hacks these days, does a NAT really give you any security?

    NAT doesn't really add any security aside from operating as a makeshift firewall for people who can't/don't set up their own.

    from memory there are enough ipv6 addresses for each person on the planet to have a few billion so NAT will eventually be redundant, but it'll probably still be in use for a long time to come.

    I'm 99.6% sure they'll have the same public IP
