So firstly we need to know what we are gonna do so we can understand things in a better way

We are going to get an IP of a website or a local device and after that we will find all information of that IP, We will first learn the basic structure of an IP and after that we will practically gather information of that IP

What is an IP:

An IP stands for Internet Protocol, An IP is a address of a device, There are four types of IP:

Definition of IP (internet protocol)

Public IP:

Shown all over the internet

Private IP:

Known for a specific area; doesn’t have importance outside

Static IP:

Once allotted can’t be changed or fixed

Dynamic IP:

IP of a device by default, changed after a period of time, for exp: switching sims or enabling airplane mode will assign you a new IP

Basic structure of an IP:

For example; our IP is:

17.172.224.47

In this case, the first 2 number of IP which are 17 stands for country in simple words the number 17 tells us of what country the IP is

17.172.224.47

After 17 comes 172 these numbers tell us of what state the IP is

17.172.224.47

After that comes 224 these numbers tells us the ISP (internet service provider) location

17.172.224.47

After that comes the last but not least number 47, these numbers tells us the device location

Finding the location and other information of an IP practically using Census:
