Every computer and its associated devices are assigned with an IP address for establishing communication within a network is. This network can be a part of a smaller local network or may be. The most common sort of private IP address for business networks is 10.0.0.1 , which can be allocated to any device within the local network in the address range. Many popular broadband routers such as Infinity, SMC, Technicolor, Cisco access this IP address as their default IP address. This IP address is simple to remember, thus most administrators prefer this address for their routers, including for home devices.
