• The fourth version of the Internet Protocol (IP). It is one of the core protocols of standards-based inter-networking methods in the Internet and other packet-switched networks. IPv4 was the first version deployed for production in the ARPANET in 1983. It still routes most Internet traffic today, despite the ongoing deployment of a successor protocol, IPv6. ← Wikipedia
