This CLM is composed of different parts. Each part shall guide you step-by-
step as you discover and understand the lesson prepared for you.
Pre-test is provided to measure your prior knowledge on the lesson. This will
show you if you need to proceed in completing this module or if you need to ask
your facilitator or your teacher’s assistance for better understanding of the lesson.
At the end of this module, you need to answer the post-test to self-check your
learning. Answer keys are provided for all activities and tests. We trust that you
will be honest in using them.
In addition to the material in the main text, Notes to the Teacher is also
provided to our facilitators and parents for strategies and reminders on how they
can best help you in your home-based learning.
Please use this module with care. Do not put unnecessary marks on any
part of this CLM. Use a separate sheet of paper in answering the exercises and
tests. Likewise, read the instructions carefully before performing each task.
If you have any question in using this CLM or any difficulty in answering the
tasks in this module, do not hesitate to consult your teacher or facilitator.

 What Do You Already Know?

Let us determine how much you already know about internet protocol.

Pretest LO1
I. Let’s Identify
Directions. Identify what is described/referred to in each of the following items.
1. A part of the IP address that identifies a particular network.
2. This identifies a host on the network.
3. It is an identifying number that is associated with a specific computer
or computer network.
4. These are used for communication between different hardware’s
used in the computer network.

address while the last 8 bits available for the host address.
8. The first 16 bits (Octet 1 and 2) are reserved for the network address
while the last 16 bits are available for the host address.

What To Know?

What is this Module About?

This module deals with the internet protocol, its main functions, kinds,
parts, address class, range, purposes and supports.

What Will You Learn?

At the end of this module, you should be able to:
1. define internet protocol;
2. enumerate the main function of protocol;
3. differentiates the kinds of protocols;
4. describe IP addressing, its structure, the address class, range, purposes
and supports;
5. identify the parts of IP address; and
6. describe subnet mask.

Information Sheet 1

Directions: Read the Information Sheet 1 with comprehension and find out how
much you can remember and how much you learned by doing the tasks given.

Internet Protocol (IP)
• Sets of rules governing communication within and
between computers on a network.
• Protocol specifications define the format of the
messages to be exchanged.
• A 32-bit sequence of 1s and 0s.
• A unique identifier.
• A numerical label.

Main functions of protocols are:

▪ identify errors;
▪ compress the data;
▪ decide how the data should be sent;
▪ address the data; and
▪ decide on how to announce sent and received data.

Kinds of Protocol
a. Transmission Control Protocol /Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). A protocol suite that
has become the dominant standard for internetworking. This represents a set of
public standards that specify how packets of
information are exchanged between
computers over one or more networks.
b. Internetwork Packet
Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange
(IPX/SPX). A protocol suite originally
employed by Novell Corporation’s network
operating system, NetWare. It delivers
functions similar to those included in
TCP/IP. Novell in its current releases
supports the TCP/IP suite. A large installed
base of NetWare networks continues to use
IPX/SPX.
c. NetBIOS Extended User Interface
(NETBEUI). Used primarily on small Windows NT networks. This cannot be routed or
used by routers to talk to each other on a large network. This is suitable for small
peer-to-peer networks, involving a few computers directly connected to each other.
d. AppleTalk. A protocol suite used to network Macintosh computers. It is composed
of a comprehensive set of protocols that span the seven layers of the Open Systems
Interconnection (OSI) reference model.
e. Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) governs how files such as text, graphics, sound,
and video are exchanged on the World Wide Web (WWW). The Internet Engineering
Task Force (IETF) developed the standards for HTTP.
f. File Transfer Protocol (PTF) provides services for file transfer and manipulation. It
allows multiple simultaneous connections to remote file systems.
g. Secure Shell (SSH). It is sed to securely connect to a remote computer.
h. TELNET. It is an application used to connect to a remote computer that lacks security
features.

6
i. Post Office Protocol (POP3). It is used to download e-mail from a remote mail
server.
j. Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP). Used to download e-mail from a remote
mail server.
k. Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). Used to send e-mail to a remote e-mail
server.

Services Provided by Internet Protocol

A. IP Addressing
• A number that is used to identify a device on the network.
- Each device on a network must have a unique IP address to communicate with
other network
devices.
Network devices
• These are
devices that
move data
across the
network.
Example:
a. Hubs
b. Switches
c. Routers

- On a LAN, each host (device that sends or receives information on the

network) and network device must have an IP address within the same
network to be able to communicate with each other.

IP Structure
1. Consisted of 4 section
2. Each section is 8 bits long
3. Each section can range from 0 to 255
4. Written, for example 192.168.100.1

process.

Parts of IP Address
1. The network ID (network address) identifies the network segment to which the
host belongs. A network segment is a logical division of a network into unique
numeric network IDs called subnets.
2. The host ID (host address)
identifies an individual host on some specific
network segment. A host can communicate
directly only with other hosts on the same
network segment. A host must use a router to communicate with hosts on other
subnets.
Note: The example given above is a Class C IP address.

Subnet Mask
• This indicates the network portion of an IP address. Like the IP address, the
subnet mask is a dotted-decimal number. Usually, all hosts within a LAN use the
same subnet mask.
o 255.0.0.0:
Class A, which
indicates that
the first octet
of the IP
address is the
network
portion.

8
 o 255.255.0.0: Class B, which indicates that the first two octets of the IP
address are the network portion.
o 255.255.255.0: Class C, which indicates that the first three octets of the IP
address are the network portion.
• Class D addresses are used for multicast groups. There is no need to
allocate octet or bits to separate network and host addresses. Class E
addresses are reserved for research use only.

What To Process?

Activity 1. Classify Me
Directions. Given the following sample IP address, classify them according to class (Class A, B,
C, D, and E).
_1. 192.168.5.10
_2. 130.5.4.77
_3. 241.0.0.1
_4. 224.0.0.5
_5. 10.50.13.40

What To Reflect & Understand?

Directions. Given the IP address illustration/representation below, identify the correct clas s
represented per row.
