Many articles have a header field called "NNTP-Posting=Host". In your
article (to which I am responding), that field contains the value
"202.84.36.31". That is the Internet Protocol address of the computer
you used to post the article. There are various tools for figuring out
the name of a host computer when you have its address, also who is
responsible for that address, who registered a domain, etc. These tools
are often freeware or shareware. They are available for Windows, Linux,
etc. (I am sure Macs too, but I can't suggest specific examples.)

In this case, the articles had IP addresses in the NNTP-Posting-Host
field that were suspiciously similar (24.65.61.45 and 24.65.38.123). The
first two octets matched. (Each number separated by dots is called an
octet, because it represents an eight-bit number.) That was quite a
coincidence. I wondered if both belonged to the same ISP. I used a tool
that implements a function called "whois". It can take an IP address and
tell me who owns the address. Sure enough, both addresses belong to
Shaw, a large cable operator in Canada. As far as I know they don't
operate in Hong Kong.

Just to stay on topic, last night I enjoyed a nice pot of chai, brewed
from a mix of tea and spices (not from a box of concentrate). It was
just the thing as winter winds have turned chilly. The weather forecast
says that tomorrow will be the first day this season that the temperature
stays below freezing. Brrr!

So the first two octets designate the actual ISP? I would have thought
the last two do, with the first two designating a broader, geographic
region. Much like, say, the way country codes and area codes are for
telephone numbers. With IP addresses, it's the other way around?

The first octet *can* represent a country (some countries have easy to
filter ones; others have a range of first octet numbers. I suspect in
this case that Shaw has disjunct numbers, but neither were
Asian/Australian.

For the sake of simplicity, the following description is VERY
generalized. But, basically, there's no way to know exactly where a
network is located simply from looking at the IP number.

IF we take an example IP address of "111.222.333.444", the
different numbers represent the following items.

111 = major trunk network or primary network
222 = main network
333 = subnet on main network
444 = specific machine.

The Internet is not "nation specific" so it doesn't matter what the
first numbers are with respect to where the network is located.
Hypothetically, 111.x.x.x could be in the U.S., while 112.x.x.x is
located in Russia.

What matters for most of us is that the DNS servers have the right
IP associated with the right name. For example, I have a .us
domain, but my host provider is located in England.

If you want to know the physical location of an IP address, you
either need to do a traceroute or look up the IP address in a WHOIS
type database. It's not as if you can memorize the "country code"
as you can with phone numbers.

More information than you probably ever wanted to know can be found
at:

No, actually it's not that simple... or simple at all.

IP addresses are divided into two parts. The first part identifies a
network. The second part identifies a host system (like a PC or a server
or a switch interface) inside the network. It has nothing to do with
geography. It's just a way for the people who run a network to obtain a
number for their network, and for them to assign numbers to things
attached to the network.

It used to be there were some rules for how big the first part of the
address was (which dictated how much was left for the second part). But
the Internet grew to be much bigger than its designers ever expected. It
began to run out of usable addresses, because the rules worked in such a
way that there just were not enough addresses that could be used for very
large networks. So some new, backwards-compatible rules were created to
get around that. I would probably bore most folks on this list if I
tried to explain here. The long and the short of it is that how an
address is interpretted is by matching against a table. You can't just
look at an address in isolation and tell. Also, the first part of an
address (the part that identifies a network) doesn't have to be an even
number of octets long. You really have to compare the binary numbers.
However, if you do see two addresses that match up past the first octet,
it is reasonable to wonder if they belong to the same network.

Oh, and just to make things more interesting, an ISP can own multiple
networks (of course). So, if two addresses start the same way, they
might belong to the same ISP, but if two addresses look completely
different, they might belong to the same ISP anyway.

It is best, of course, to drink a cup of tea while contemplating these
mysteries. :-)

Nope, sorry, that's wrong. (We are discussing my professional
specialty here.) That's not even the way that the original class
system was envisioned, back 20 years ago. IP addresses have a
two-part structure. The first part identifies the network, the
second a number within the network. The length of the first part
is pretty arbitrary. Any structure in the second part is up to
the owner of the IP address block. Visit www.ietf.org and read
RFCs about CIDR for all the details.

If you got that from the Cisco web site, well, maybe that is the
problem. I've heard too many versions of the story where Cisco
tells its customers that the Internet was invented to connect
LANs together. They may be the biggest router vendor out there,
but that doesn't mean that everything they say is correct.

Nope, sorry, it's not. It's extremely generalized and dumbed down.
But it doesn't even conflict with what you've said below.

Which pretty much says what I gave in the example. The first two
numbers specify the network. The second two numbers specify a local
machine.

We had two PCs in our project office on campus.

160.94.19.130 160.94.19.96

The first two sets of number specify our network, the third a
"branch" (so to speak) and the last being the unique number of each
PC.

My example was horribly dumbed down and incomplete. It was a
simplified example, kind of like the Bohr model of the atom - it's
not really what an atom looks like, but it gives you an idea of how
it works.

The details - which is what I acknowledged I was leaving out from
the beginning.

But the point wasn't to go into all the details - which would
probably bore everyone but you and me. It was to give an
understandable example.

Possibly. But what they "offered" does not differ significantly
from what I was told from the networking personnel at the
University when I was working computer support - I probably annoyed
them by asking a LOT of questions.

Then again, I haven't run a statistical test for significance -
maybe it does differ.

An accurate, simple explanation would have said there are two parts to an address, that the
first part identifies a network, the second part identifies a computer or other system
attached to the network, and that there's nothing to do with geography in the way network
addresses are structured.

What was incorrect about your "simple" explanation was that you added details that are not
generally true. In this case the details were four levels of hierarchy for allocating
addresses, when in fact the standards and routers only deal with two. Some network
administrators might make up extra hierarchy as a tool for allocating allocate addresses
that way, and perhaps it was done that way in the university where you worked, but there is
no standard rule that says that network addresses have to be allocated that way, and any
bookkeeping/allocation scheme that a administrator builds on top of the standard two-part
structure isn't seen or used by the router. If you had said that it was an example of how
network addresses could be allocated, that other ways were possible, and that allocation is
different from the two-part structure that the router sees, that would have been correct, if
not necessarily simple. But you were telling the group that addresses are necessarily
allocated and structured in a certain way, in four parts, and that's just not the case. In
fact, one of the key elements in the design of the IPv4 address space is that it is
completely flat, not at all hierarchical as you portray. Internet routing protocols would
work entirely differently than they do if addresses were structured rather than flat.

Here are two examples of the consequences of the IP address space being flat. They both
contradict your explanation. First, two network addresses may begin with the same octet or
octets, and yet be completely unrelated to each other - on networks that are thousands of
miles apart and owned by different organizations. OTOH, two network addresses may start
with completely different three-octet sequences, yet both be owned by the same organization,
representing adjacent subnets and connected via ports on a particular router.

The networking personel where you were working computer support may have been telling you
how they did things... a particular example... or they may not have been as knowledgable as
one would hope. My background is more than 25 years as a network technologist. I have
contributed to the design of protocols used today in the Internet. I have also been a
product manager for routers for a major vendor (no, not Cisco)... and specified the IP
protocol support down to the nittiest grittiest detail. The development engineers would
have let me know it if I had anything wrong... The press would have been quick to point out
egregious errors like not understanding IP addressing in their reviews... Customers would
have complained mightily. What I say about tea may be only my opinion, but when it comes to
the basics of IP networking I think I am very firm ground.

At the risk of being contrary, not "generally true" does not equate
with "wrong."

It was AN example, but inclusive of all. I thought that was clear -
obviously it was not. It was never intended to be a definitive
description of IP allocation. Just one example of many.

Lack of clarity on my part - or rather, lack of specificity.

I'm downing a few delightful cups of SpecialTea's Lin Yun White Down at the

Debbie & Crymad:

Thanks guys for your explanation but the problem is I have been lost
in space. Sorry, I don't understant this kind of IT language that
much. I think we can close down this issue. if I have any problem I
will personally contact you. Reminds me some another Topic where
everything became little indecent at the end , though the topic was a
simple quistion. I withdrawl my question. Lets have a good cup of tea
and relax. Thanks again.

Beats me, it looks like it is being sold in Canada. Having said that,
SpecialTeas does offer a rose-scented/flavored Chinese black tea (quite
traditional, actually) that I rather enjoy on occasion. I don't know if
it has any health benefits, but it sure is pleasant sipping on a quiet
evening.

More importantly, it *is* being sold by my LTS - and I did have
some on hand. But the other half swiped it and took it to work with

I got some rose tuo chas from the Holy Mountain Trading Company that I
liked pretty well--they tasted more like lychee than rose, though.
