Hidding IP Address

IP stands for Internet Protocol and IP address is the address that is assigned to each device connected in computer network that use internet protocol (TCP/IP).
This IP address is used to determine the device location in the network. 
The designers designed Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) and IPv6 as addressing methods. IP addresses are binary numbers, but they are usually stored in text files and displayed in human readable notations, such as 172.16.254.1 (for IPv4), and 2001:db8:0:1234:0:567:8:1 (for IPv6).
IPv4 was designed as a 32bit number system. For example in 172.16.254.1, 172 stands for 10101100 binary number which is of 8 bits and it contains four such 8-bit numbers which total constitute of 32-bit. IPv4 is most widely used system for addressing. Here every number separated by dot can be of range between 0 to 255. For example 216.3.128.1 can IPv4 address.
