WHAT IS MY IP ADDRESS

My IP Address Tool is used to Find Your IP, City, Region, Country, Country Code, ISP, Latitude and Longitude. This IP Locator Tool is a useful IP tool that allows you to retrieve the IP location information of an IP address instantly.

An IP Address (Internet Protocol address) is a digital identifier assigned to each device connected to a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication. An IP address performs mainly two main functions: identifying the host or network interface and addressing the location.

IP addresses are written and displayed in human readable notations. Due to the growth of the Internet and the depletion of available IPv4 addresses, a new version of IP (IPv6). There are two versions of IP Addresses available: IPv4 and IPv6.

  • IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4) defines an IP address as a 32-bit number. Example - 172.16.254.1

  • IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) defines an IP address as a 128-bit number, which was standardized in 1998 and available since the mid-2000s. Example - db8: 0: 1234: 0: 567: 8: 1
