IP to Decimal Conversion Tool


The IP to Integer conversion tool converts a IPv4 (or IPv6) Address to a decimal number. IPv4 address is a 32-bit number, and IPv6 is a 128-bit number. IPv6 can use short-hand notation where leading zeros are abbreviated with :: (double colons). See IPv6 Address for details.

Why do you need an IP to Integer conversion?

IPv4 (Internet Protocol) addresses are commonly represented in dotted decimal notation, which uses four decimal numbers separated by dots to represent the 32-bit value of an IP address. IPv6 addresses are represented in 128-bit number separated by colons. However, it is sometimes necessary to convert an IP address to an integer format for easier manipulation, comparison, or storage in databases.

In integer representation, each octet (8 bits) of the IP address is treated as a separate number and combined into a single, large integer value. This representation makes it easier to perform operations such as searching for a specific IP address within a range, or sorting a list of IP addresses.

Another reason for converting an IP address to an integer is for efficient storage in databases. Storing IP addresses as integers takes less space than storing them as strings, and integer comparisons are faster than string comparisons.

In summary, IP to integer conversion is a technique used to simplify the storage, manipulation, and comparison of IP addresses.
