The Internet Protocol (IP) address is a numerical label assigned to each device connected to a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication. In simpler terms, it is a unique identifier that allows devices to communicate with each other on the internet. Every website, email, and online service that we use relies on IP addresses to function properly.
A static IP is a constant, unchanging Internet Protocol address assigned to a device or a network's interface. Unlike dynamic IPs, which can change each time a device connects to the internet, static IPs remain the same.
