The IP address (Internet Protocol - Internet Protocol) is a network mechanism for data transmission tasks on the Internet, all devices connected to the network regardless of their type have a unique IP address whose mission is to identify and send information to that device and not to a different one. IP addresses are made up of a series of numbers divided into four sections separated by dots and we know that we have two types of IP that are IPv4 and IPv6. IP addresses will help us identify and locate each device in a unique way, thus allowing satisfactory communication within the network..
Currently an error can occur which is the temporary blocking of our team's IP address: Your IP has been temporarily blocked , this logically has a negative impact on everything since network connectivity will be impossible as there is no data to send and receive . Some causes of this IP blocking are:
Causes IP blocking
- Access to the network in a country where there are numerous rules blocking access to sites.
- Execution of suspicious tasks which will automatically block the IP to avoid legal issues.
- Multiple logins that can block the IP by having an access limit
- Violations to the rules created and configured by the Firewall.
- Problems with browser cookies which are stored with each visit to the website.
- Port scanning activities.
- Excessive use of resources such as bandwidth.
- Presence of viruses and malware.
- Temporary problems with the website.
