What is an Internet Protocol (IP) address?
An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a number which computers use to identify a location on the network, whether the public Internet or a private network. The number is in the format #.#.#.# where the # may be any number from 0 to 255. For example, 123.12.1.0. DNS maps domain names (like example.com) to IP addresses (like 198.168.0.0).
If your IP address is dynamic, we suggest you use one of the following:
Windows: Download Windows Client
Mac : Download Mac Client
