subnet mask
An intranet is a private network that uses internet protocols, network connectivity, and public telecommunication system to securely share part of an organization's information or operations with its employees.
the network portion of the destination ip address
In theory, the part that indicates the network. In IP networks, this is the first part of the IP address.The size of the "network" part may vary; therefore, the router checks the address against different rows of its routing table; if, for example, a certain row specifies a network of 10.0.5.0 /24, that means that the first 24 bits must be compared, so the router will compare whether the first 24 bits match.
The Internet is a global network of computers. Every computer that is connected to the Internet is considered a part of that network. This means even your home computer. It's all a matter of degrees, you connect to your ISP's network, then your ISP connects to a larger network and so on.
No, that address space ends at 172.31.255.255
The host portion specifies the particular network interface's address. The network portion specifies the network address.
The network address
The network part of an IP address indicates the network to which the host belongs. The host bits or host part of an IP address points to the actual device that has an IP address on the network. It can be a computer, printer, router or any device with an IP address that has the same network part.
host address
An "ip address" is a complete source or destination address that has a network id portion and a client or host portion. The network id is just a piece of the IP address. So, a public ip is an IP address that can be routed, whereas the network id is just a part of the public ip. They aren't different; the network id is part of the ip address.
A network ID refers to a part of a TCP/IP address that is used to identify the subnet that a host may be on. The subnet that the computer is on is determined by the netmask and IP address of the computer. This subnet address is the same as the network ID and is the beginning part of the computers IP address. When the netmask is setup, it is a number where some of the most significant bits have a 1's value and the rest have values of 0. The most significant part of the netmask with bits set to 1's specifies the network address, and the lower part of the address will specify the host address. The part of the IP address that matches the part of the netmask where the bits are set to ones determines the network ID.
The subnet mask is used for this purpose. It indicates how much of the address is for network, and the remaining part is for the hosts.
Internet protocol (IP) describes a network address. Part of the address is for the network, and other part is for the client in that network. If you wish to know more, there are many excellent answers to questions on TCP/IP on this site; just search for the questions.
Network IDA network ID refers to a part of a TCP/IP address that is used to identify the subnet that a host may be on.

When people refer to internet address they mean IP address. This is an address composed of 4 sections separated by periods. There is a associated network mask. The Network mask tells you which of the bits of the IP address refer to the Network, and so which bits refer to the device. Example 192.168.100.0 with a mask of 255.255.255.0 means that only the 4th part is the device address whereas 192.168.100 is the network. This is a class C address which can have 254 devices. It follows that if you don't know the network mask you can't say which part of the IP address is the network!
Yes, this is done routinely, in part because of the scarcity of public IP (version 4) addresses.To achieve this, the users within a network use private IP addresses, in one of the ranges recommended by RFC 1918 - for example, any address that has "10" in the first byte.A NAT device will do the address translation on the border between the internal and the external network. The result is that equipment on the outside of our company's network will only see the single public IP address.Yes, this is done routinely, in part because of the scarcity of public IP (version 4) addresses.To achieve this, the users within a network use private IP addresses, in one of the ranges recommended by RFC 1918 - for example, any address that has "10" in the first byte.A NAT device will do the address translation on the border between the internal and the external network.
