Let me unplug my router, then plug it back in. I'll have a new IP address.
This reporting lacks understanding of IP.
theres fixed IP addresses that servers use, and dynamic IP addresses that consumers borrow.
But what about fixed addressed that consumers use?
And servers that use dynamic IPs
Caching is hard, buddy, I get it.
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 configuration 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.
