IP

Internet Protocol is the standard that describes the layout of the
basic unit of information on the Internet (the packet) and also
details the numerical addressing format used to route the
information. Your Internet service provider controls the IP
address of any device it connects to the Internet. The IP
addresses in your network must conform to IP addressing rules.
In smaller LANs, most people will allow the DHCP function of a
router or gateway to assign the IP addresses on internal
networks.

IP address

IP address is a 32-binary digit number that identifies each sender
or receiver of information that is sent in packets across the
Internet. For example 80.80.80.69 is an IP address, it is the
closet thing the Internet has to telephone numbers. When you
“call” that number, using any connection methods, you get
connected to the computer that “owns” that IP address.

ISP

Internet Service Provider, is a company that maintains a network
that is linked to the Internet by way of a dedicated communication
line. An ISP offers the use of its dedicated communication lines
to companies or individuals who can’t afford the high monthly
cost for a direct connection.
