[–] SEMW 13y ago ↗ Yeah. An IP address is 32 bits long. It's usually represented as four 8-bit decimals (74.125.227.40), but it's perfectly valid to represent it as a single 32-bit decimal (1249764136). [–] mosqutip 13y ago ↗ That's cool. I didn't know browsers could parse it in that manner, but I suppose it makes enough sense. [–] testing12341234 13y ago ↗ The formatting of an IP in this matter is translated at the network level.The following also works (from the command line):ping 1249764136
