I came across the terms LIVE IP and STATIC IP and did research on them but couldn't find useful info about the differences between them.

What is the difference between live IP and Static IP?

Live IP is a IP address that is used to access the machine via the internet. These machine can be server or clients. These servers can be Windows Base or CentOS Base. A static IP means that this IP will never change.

What are the 4 types of IP address?

An internet protocol (IP) address allows computers to send and receive information. There are four types of IP addresses: public, private, static, and dynamic.

Should I turn on static IP?

It is ideal to use a static IP address for devices on your network that will need to be accessed very reliably by other systems or devices on the network. A device set with a static IP address makes sure that the device is easily found on the network, since the IP address will not change.

What does static IP mean?

Static IP addresses If your computer is hosting a web server, its IP address is what identifies it to the rest of the Internet. A computer on the Internet can have a static IP address, which means it stays the same over time, or a dynamic IP address, which means the address can change over time.

A static IP is one that will never change. A dynamic IP is exactly that, dynamic(live ip). It could change frequently, or not change for more than 1 year. It really depends on how the DHCP server that’s assigns the IPs is set up.
