An [http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc791.html IP] address is a unique value you are given when connecting to a net using the [http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc791.html Internet Protocol].

Internally, [http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc791.html IP] addresses are 4 bytes numbers. Anyway, their common use is splitting this addresses into 1 byte numbers with a dot (''.'') between them. Since the range of values a 1 byte number can be is 0 - 255, the range of [http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc791.html IP] addresses goes from ''0.0.0.0'' to ''255.255.255.255'' which makes up to 2^(4*8) possible [http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc791.html IP] addresses.
