1
00:00:00,230 --> 00:00:04,065
We've mentioned IP addresses
a lot in this course,
2
00:00:04,065 --> 00:00:06,480
but we haven't actually gone
into detail about them.
3
00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:09,550
There are actually different
versions of IP addresses.
4
00:00:09,550 --> 00:00:12,840
The current protocol, Internet
protocol version four,
5
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,690
or IPV4, is an address that
6
00:00:15,690 --> 00:00:19,455
consists of 32 bits
separated into four groups.
7
00:00:19,455 --> 00:00:26,265
IPV4 addresses can be
something like 73.55.242.3.
8
00:00:26,265 --> 00:00:27,750
Even though it might
seem like a lot
9
00:00:27,750 --> 00:00:30,150
of possible IPV4 addresses,
10
00:00:30,150 --> 00:00:33,910
there are less than 4.3
billion IPV4 addresses.
11
00:00:33,910 --> 00:00:35,760
There are way more than 4.3
12
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:37,875
billion websites out
on the web today.
13
00:00:37,875 --> 00:00:39,870
Some IPV4 addresses are
14
00:00:39,870 --> 00:00:42,150
even reserved for
special purposes.
15
00:00:42,150 --> 00:00:45,370
The number of usable IP
addresses is even less.
16
00:00:45,370 --> 00:00:46,940
A device that wants
to connect to
17
00:00:46,940 --> 00:00:49,280
the Internet needs to
have an IP address.
18
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:50,930
But devices around the world
19
00:00:50,930 --> 00:00:52,985
have already exceeded
those numbers.
20
00:00:52,985 --> 00:00:55,480
Where have we been
getting IP addresses?
21
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,470
IP addresses have been able to
22
00:00:57,470 --> 00:00:59,630
keep up with the amount
of devices in the world
23
00:00:59,630 --> 00:01:04,385
thanks to IPV6 or Internet
Protocol version 6 addresses,
24
00:01:04,385 --> 00:01:08,480
IPV6 addresses
consists of 128 bits,
25
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,660
four times the amount
that IPV4 uses,
26
00:01:11,660 --> 00:01:14,920
which means way more devices
can have IP addresses.
27
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,910
The adoption of IPV6 addresses
has been slow but steady.
28
00:01:18,910 --> 00:01:20,690
Eventually, you'll start seeing
29
00:01:20,690 --> 00:01:23,380
more and more IPV6
addresses in the wild.
30
00:01:23,380 --> 00:01:25,530
An example of IPV4 address can
31
00:01:25,530 --> 00:01:30,430
be something like 172.14.24.1.
32
00:01:30,430 --> 00:01:32,315
But an IPV6 address
33
00:01:32,315 --> 00:01:34,750
can be something like
what you see here.
34
00:01:34,750 --> 00:01:37,295
Quite a bit of a difference,
don't you think?
35
00:01:37,295 --> 00:01:39,680
Here's an analogy for
how big this difference
36
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,830
is between IPV4 and IPV6.
37
00:01:42,830 --> 00:01:44,930
With IPV6, there are
38
00:01:44,930 --> 00:01:48,860
two to the 128th power
possible IP addresses.
39
00:01:48,860 --> 00:01:52,685
Two to the 128th power is
an insanely huge number,
40
00:01:52,685 --> 00:01:54,890
so huge that
scientists had trouble
41
00:01:54,890 --> 00:01:57,995
describing with words just
how big this number is.
42
00:01:57,995 --> 00:02:00,885
Here's an analogy. Think
of a grain of sand.
43
00:02:00,885 --> 00:02:02,645
If you scoop up a handful,
44
00:02:02,645 --> 00:02:05,225
do you know how many grains
you have in your hand?
45
00:02:05,225 --> 00:02:07,220
Probably a lot, but that's not
46
00:02:07,220 --> 00:02:09,275
even close to the number
we're talking about.
47
00:02:09,275 --> 00:02:13,295
Now, take all the grains of
sand in the entire world.
48
00:02:13,295 --> 00:02:16,700
Assuming there are roughly
seven and a half times ten to
49
00:02:16,700 --> 00:02:19,220
the 18th power grains
of sand in the world
50
00:02:19,220 --> 00:02:22,610
that still wouldn't be
enough IPV6 addresses.
51
00:02:22,610 --> 00:02:26,170
Now, let's take all the
sand from multiple Earths.
52
00:02:26,170 --> 00:02:28,760
Now you're close to what
that number would be.
53
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,680
It's a crazy large number.
54
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,780
Just know that we won't
be running out of
55
00:02:32,780 --> 00:02:35,095
IPV6 addresses anytime soon.
56
00:02:35,095 --> 00:02:37,895
Another mitigation tool
that we've been able to use
57
00:02:37,895 --> 00:02:41,045
is NAT or Network
Address Translation.
58
00:02:41,045 --> 00:02:42,860
This lets organizations use
59
00:02:42,860 --> 00:02:44,900
one public IP address and
60
00:02:44,900 --> 00:02:47,650
many private IP addresses
within the network.
61
00:02:47,650 --> 00:02:50,400
Think of NAT like a
receptionist at a company.
62
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,985
You know what number to dial
to get to the company.
63
00:02:52,985 --> 00:02:54,799
Once you reach the receptionist,
64
00:02:54,799 --> 00:02:56,630
he can transfer
your call to one of
65
00:02:56,630 --> 00:02:58,745
the private numbers
inside the company.
66
00:02:58,745 --> 00:03:00,440
Now, instead of companies using
67
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,540
hundreds of public IP addresses,
68
00:03:02,540 --> 00:03:04,725
they can just use
one IP address.
69
00:03:04,725 --> 00:03:07,085
Remember the routers we
talked about earlier?
70
00:03:07,085 --> 00:03:09,260
One task you might need
to perform when you're
71
00:03:09,260 --> 00:03:11,630
an IT support specialist
is to configure
72
00:03:11,630 --> 00:03:13,609
NAT on a router to facilitate
73
00:03:13,609 --> 00:03:14,690
communication between
74
00:03:14,690 --> 00:03:17,700
your company's network
and the outside world.
