IP Address
Ip Address (Internet Protocol address) is as your telephone number.
It uniquely identifies every host on a network. Just as your mailing
address uniquely identifies your home, an IP address uniquely identifies a host.

Protocol
A protocol is a rule or a set of rules and standards for communicating that computers
use when they send data back and forth. Both the sender and receiver
involved in data transfer must recognize and observe the same protocols.
Name resolution
Resolving or translating the name to an IP address is called
name resolution.
It is the process of figuring out the IP address that corresponds to
a given name. For example the URL for the IpAddressLocation Web site is www.ipaddresslocation.org.
and have ip address 204.11.52.38. When you type www.ipaddresslocation.org TCP/IP will need
to translate these meaningful words into the IP address. After resolving of a name to an IP address, the host can
then figure out whether the destination is local or remote and can continue
with the communication. This is similar to finding a phone number
when all you know is a name.

Network Tools
You can performance on this page another group of similair network tools:
- DiG
- NsLookup
- HTTP Request
Domain Information Groper, called DiG, is a flexible tool similair to NSLookup (name server lookup to find the IP addresses of a particular computer)
and it is often used
for network trobleshooting or for educational purposes.
It performs DNS lookups and displays the answers that are returned from the name server
that was queried.
You can use the drop-down menu above to select the desired dig query type.
Nslookup has been depreciated and it is recommended to use DiG instead.
HTTP Request could be used to retrieve informations about sppecificated web server.
In our example you can use HEAD, GET, OPTION and TRACE request methods.
