IP is a network
layer - it must be
|
|
|
|
capable of
providing communication
|
|
|
between hosts on
different kinds of
|
|
|
|
networks
(different data-link
|
|
|
|
implementations).
|
|
|
• |
The address must
include
|
|
|
|
information about
what network the
|
|
|
|
receiving host is
on. This makes
|
|
|
|
routing feasible.
