An IP address is a unique address that identifies a device on the internet or a local network. IP stands for "Internet Protocol," which is the set of rules governing the format of data sent via the internet or local network. ... The internet needs a way to differentiate between different computers, routers, and websites.
Are IP addresses unique to each device?
At its core, an IP address is an online unique identifier. Every computer has its own IP address, and it is through this naming system that computers can connect with each other and share data. A standard IP address (using what's known as the IPv4 protocol) contains four individual numbers separated by a decimal.
Can two devices have same IP address?
As I understand it, two computers cannot have the same public (external) IP address unless they are connected via the same router. If they are connected via the same router, then they can have (share) the same public IP address yet have different private (local) IP addresses.
