Install TCP/IP Protocol in Windows

Hey guys,

I will explain How to install TCP/IP protocol in windows.

To understand TCP/IP and different Network Classes.

TCP/IP-

                Because of the explosive growth of the internet in the 1983 year, transmission control protocol / Internet protocol (TCP/IP) is now used on more networks than any other suite of protocols. An IP address in numeric identifier assigned to each computer on an IP network.

An IP address is a software address, used to find a host (computer) on a network.

            We are using IP version 4 which is a 32-bit value the contains both a network identifier and a host identifier, divided into four octets. Windows supports both IP/4 and IP/6 is a 256-bit value network address. Subnetting is used in IP networks to break lager into small networks.

The address is donated as four decimal numbers ranging from 0 to 255, separated by periods, as in 192.168.1.44. each of the four values is the decimal equivalent of an 8-bit binary value. For example, the binary value 10101010 is equal to the decimal value 170. The subnet mask is 32-bit values the allow to distingwish between network ID and network portion of IP address.

                The designers of the IP addressing scheme divided the IP address scheme into five classes, but classes A, B, C are used in IP addressing.

Class A

             Default Network               Network.host.host.host

             Subnet mask                     255.0.0.0

             For example                     10.0.0.0

             Rang                                 1.0.0.0. to 126.0.0.0

             Public IP                           10.0.0.0

Class B

             Default Network               Network.Network.host.host

             Subnet mask                     255.255.0.0

             For example                     144.0.0.0

             Rang                                 128.0.0.0. to 191.0.0.0

             Public IP                           172.16.0.0 to 172.31.0.0

Class C 

             Default Network               Network.Network.Network.host

             Subnet mask                     255.255.255.0

             For example                     212.0.0.0

             Rang                                 192.0.0.0. to 223.0.0.0

             Public IP                           192.168.0.0 

Class D

             Rang                                 224.0.0.0. to 239.0.0.0

             Used for Multicasting                        

Class E

             Rang                                 239.0.0.0 Onwards

             Used for Research. 

Procedure:-

           1) Be sure both  NIC and It's a device driver are installed properly.

           2) Click Start, point to Settings, click control panel, and then double click network.

               Network screen appears.

           3) select TCP/IPv4 of your NIC and click on properties TCP/IP properties screen appears.                           (screen is shown above).

           4) Click on IP address and select specify the IP address and give IP address 192.168.1.1

               and subnet mask 255.255.255.0 and click on OK. then click on OK, in network properties, 

               and restart the computer.
