Hvilke typer IP-adresser findes der?
What kinds of IP addresses exist?
**IPv4 kontra IPv6-adresser** er to forskellige typer adresser tilhørende forskellige internetadresseringsstandarder. **IPv4** er en gammel standard, og antallet af IPv4-adresser opfylder ikke folks behov i dag. IPv4-formatet er dog bredt accepteret og vil ikke blive opgivet i nærmeste fremtid. **IPv6** er et nyt format, der kan dække mange flere enheder, men den understøttes ikke af alle internetudbydere og websteder.
**En offentlig IP-adresse** er en globalt routbar adresse, der bruges til kommunikation mellem enheder og websteder på nettet. **En privat IP-adresse** kan kun bruges i et lokalnetværk.
**En dynamisk IP-adresse** tildeles en enhed, når den går online, og den kan ændre sig over tid. **En statisk IP-adresse** forbliver uændret så længe som ønsket.
**IPv4 vs. IPv6 addresses** are two different types of addresses that belong to different Internet addressing standards. **IPv4** is an old standard, and the number of IPv4 addresses doesn’t meet people’s needs nowadays. However, the IPv4 format is widely accepted and won’t be abandoned in the near future. **IPv6** is a new format that can cover many more devices but isn’t supported by some Internet providers and websites.
**A public IP address** is a globally routable address that is used for communication between devices and websites on the Web. **A private IP address** can only be used in a local network.
**A dynamic IP address** gets assigned to a device when it goes online and may change over time. **A static IP address** stays unchanged as long as needed.
