How IPv4, IPv6, Subnets, and Gateways Work!
How does your device get its “identity” on the internet?
In this hands-on episode, we break down the Internet Protocol (IP) step by step, including IPv4, IPv6, subnets, and gateways. Using a fully interactive lab with multiple operating systems, you’ll see exactly how addressing and routing work in practice, and why they’re the foundation of modern networking and cybersecurity.
