IP address version 4 is in which format?
A
4 bit
B
8 bit
C
16 bit
D
32 bit
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The IPv4 address is a 32-bit number that uniquely identifies a network interface on a machine. An IPv4 address is typically written in decimal digits, formatted as four 8-bit fields that are separated by periods. Each 8-bit field represents a byte of the IPv4 address.

Detailed explanation-2: -If an IPv4 address is made up of four sections with 256 possibilities in each section, to find the total number of IPv4 addresses, you should just multiply 256 256 256 * 256 to find results 4, 294, 967, 296 addresses. To put it another way, we have 32 bits then 2 to the 32nd power will give the same result obtained.

Detailed explanation-3: -An IP address is a 32-bit number. It uniquely identifies a host (computer or other device, such as a printer or router) on a TCP/IP network. IP addresses are normally expressed in dotted-decimal format, with four numbers separated by periods, such as 192.168.123.132.
