Intranet	This is a private network, inside an organization or
	company that uses the same software you will find on
	the public Internet. The only difference is that an
	Intranet is used for internal usage only.
Internet	The Internet is a globally linked system of computers
	that are logically connected based on the Internet
	Protocol (IP). The Internet provides different ways to
	access private and public information worldwide.
Internet	To participate in Internet communications and on
address	Internet Protocol-based networks, a node must have an
	Internet address that identifies it to the other nodes.
	All Internet addresses are IP addresses
IP	Internet Protocol is the standard that describes the
	layout of the basic unit of information on the Internet
	(the packet) and also details the numerical addressing
	format used to route the information. Your Internet
	service provider controls the IP address of any device
	it connects to the Internet. The IP addresses in your
	network must conform to IP addressing rules. In
	smaller LANs, most people will allow the DHCP
	function of a router or gateway to assign the IP
	addresses on internal networks.
IP address	IP address is a 32-binary digit number that identifies
	each sender or receiver of information that is sent in
	packets across the Internet. For example 80.80.80.69 is
	an IP address, it is the closet thing the Internet has to
	telephone numbers. When you “call” that number,
	using any connection methods, you get connected to
	the computer that “owns” that IP address.
