What is public and private ip address., explain? and also
explain the ip address range of both public and private?
and where we use that public and private ip address?

Answer Posted / arun4gkp

An IP address is considered private if the IP number falls
within one of the IP address ranges reserved for private
uses by Internet standards groups. These private IP address
ranges exist:

10.0.0.0 through 10.255.255.255
169.254.0.0 through 169.254.255.255 (APIPA only)
172.16.0.0 through 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 through 192.168.255.255

Private IP addresses are typically used on local networks
including home, school and business LANs including airports
and hotels.
Rest of the IP's are known as Public IP and those IP's are
routable on Internet.
