About this document
Understanding Communication Addressing by Lean Miñon is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Addressing deals with uniquely identifying entities for communication purposes. It involves a name/identifier for what is being addressed, an address for where it is located, and routes for how to get there. IP addresses, the most common type, are made up of four octets that allow for unique identification of devices on a network. However, IP addresses are running out due to their limited size, so they are divided into classes that allocate addresses more efficiently.
