11011001.10110000.10010000.00000111, and if its network mask is,
11111111.11111111.11110000.00000000
It means the device’s network address is
11011001.10110000.10010000.00000000, and its host ID is,
00000000.00000000.00000000.00000111. This is a convenient and efficient method for access points to
route IP packets to their destination.
ISP Gateway Address: (see ISP for definition). The ISP Gateway Address is an IP address for the Internet

MAC Address: MAC stands for Media Access Control. A MAC address is the hardware address of a device
connected to a network. The MAC address is a unique identifier for a device with an Ethernet interface. It is
comprised of two parts: 3 bytes of data that corresponds to the Manufacturer ID (unique for each
manufacturer), plus 3 bytes that are often used as the product’s serial number.
NAT: Network Address Translation. This process allows all of the computers on your home network to use
one IP address. Using the broadband access point’s NAT capability, you can access the Internet from any
computer on your home network without having to purchase more IP addresses from your ISP.
Port: Network Clients (LAN PC) uses port numbers to distinguish one network application/protocol over
another. Below is a list of common applications and protocol/port numbers:
