A technician configured a new SOHO router for a small business. The ISP gave the technician an IP address on the router's WAN port. Which of the following addresses did the technician most likely configure on the router?
This is an example of a public IP address that can be assigned by an ISP to a router’s WAN (Wide Area Network) port. A public IP address is a globally unique and routable address that allows a device to communicate with other devices on the internet. A private IP address, such as 10.1.50.30 or 172.22.40.6, is a non-routable address that is used within a local network and cannot be directly accessed from the internet. A link-local IP address, such as 169.254.168.10, is a self-assigned address that is used when a device cannot obtain a valid IP address from a DHCP server.
