    Let me unplug my router, then plug it back in. I’ll have a new IP address.

    This is stupid reporting.

      theres fixed IP addresses that servers use, and dynamic IP addresses that consumers borrow.

        But what about fixed addressed that consumers use?

      There is no such thing as IP protocol, IP stands for internet protocol it’s an osi layer 3 networking protocol that handles routing and addressing of packets. Dynamic host control protocol DHCP is a network management protocol used on IP networks to automatically assign IP addresses.

        Ummmm, no.

        You don’t use ISO or clns at all. We standardised on the DOD TCP/IP model and still teach ISO because who fucking knows why.

        And before you say otherwise check your network adaptor and notice you don’t have a clns or nsap.

  “Infrastructure running on 22k ip addresses”. Either the authors are dumb, or they’re writing for a dumb audience.

  Correct on both.
