What is IP?

IP (Internet Protocol) is the principal communications protocol in the Internet protocol suite for relaying datagrams across network boundaries. Its routing function enables internetworking, and essentially establishes the Internet. IP defines addressing methods and structures for datagram encapsulation. It is used for addressing and routing packets across networks.
