What Is The Difference Between Public And Private Ip Addresses?

Answer»

Public IP addresses:

A public IP address is any valid address, or number, that can be ACCESSED over the Internet. Internet STANDARDS GROUPS, such as the Network Information Center (NIC) or the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA), are the organizations responsible for registering IP ranges and assigning them to organizations, such as Internet Service Providers (ISPS).

Private IP addresses:

A private IP address is any number or address assigned to a device on a private TCP/IP Local Area Network that is accessible only within the Local Area Network. For a resource inside the Local Area Network to be accessible over the Internet, a device within the Local Area Network must be connected to the Internet with a public IP address, and the networking must be appropriately configured. 

The same Internet standards organizations have reserved the following three IP address ranges that will never be registered publicly:

FIRST IP in block Last IP in block

10.0.0.0 10.255.255.255

172.16.0.0 172.31.255.255

192.168.0.0 192.168.255.255
