APIPA Explained - Automatic Private IP Addressing

What is APIPA? If Microsoft Windows computers cannot make contact with a DHCP server to get an IP address, they will self-assign themselves an IP address. These IP addresses will be in this range 169.254.0.1 - 169.254.255.254. And the reason they do this is so that they will still be able to communicate with other computers on the same local network/subnet that also have self-assigned IP addresses.

Please make a video on how NFC works.

[@hasindushenol8212]

Every IT student must know this channel❤️

[@lcgn]

I can confirm that! Helped me out more than any session with my prof

[@FabianVillanueva-IT]

What another CZcams Channel do You recommend over same content?

[@caturdaynite7217]

I've actually seen a server on fire. I yanked the power cord out of the wall with a pair of side cutters. The manager put it out with a fire extinguisher. So, I'd say your graphic was pretty realistic.

[@PowerCertAnimatedVideos]

LOL

[@hoggrobinson]

I hope you called 911? Instead of checking the ip addresses of the clients.

[@floobertuber]

I had a 17" CRT monitor light up right in front of me once. I don't like thinking about what would've happened if I wasn't nearby. It gave me second thoughts about leaving the house with certain kinds of computer hardware still operating.

[@crrodriguez]

This stuff just cannot be unseen anymore.. I have seen USB ports, RAM modules and power supplies lit.

[@user-fz2tm9pm5p]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@fissionplane32]

The ending where the fire from the DHCP server burned down the letters and title line was hilarious, good implementation of a 4th wall break, I didn't expect it to happen

[@hnasr]

Learned something new today! Thanks

[@hassanawodi5888]

You are here!

[@nitroglycerific9295]

I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for these videos. I can't tell you how many spoken word lecturers I listened to studying for A+ without grasping the core of these really abstract concepts. Then I found your simple animations and everything started to click. My Core 1 exam is in a week, and for the first time in months, I think I can actually do it

[@lb4660]

Agreed, best explanations for new learners. Awesome 👍 channel.

[@clair780]

This is how I'm feeling right now. My confidence spiked up once I found this channel.
They really need to include videos for every section in the program.

[@meriemedafer3676]

Hey did you pass your exams?? I know I’m 2 years late lol

[@lesiostasio2542]

2:18 I bet you had fun animating the DHCP server :D

[@PowerCertAnimatedVideos]

I did :)

[@vaib8940]

Your short courses are like 1 full lecture worth, wish we had this for our networking classes.

[@Waad-morad]

i wish that i had knew this channel when i was at college but no problem now i'm watching those videos for my work interview ...really helpful and simple explanation thank you so much

[@FranchiseSIX5]

The visuals you use in all your videos along with simple talk are so easy to understand. I couldn't understand my instructors IP address math for figuring out hex and your other video on here about that made it so easy!

[@jeremydeprato1645]

To all those looking for a tier 1 position, you can guarantee this will be a question on your technical interview

[@jackchn23]

What kind of questions? Like what happens when a DHCP server cannot be reached, or why a computer can’t reach the internet even though it has network connectivity?

[@abg44]

@@jackchn23you are a support agent, A user was recently connected to the network. But notices when she opens her browser, she is unable to connect to the homepage. When you check Ipconfig on her system. You notice this IP address. What does this IP address mean if it's being automatically assigned?
They'll ask you to confirm if DHCP is working or is not working based on that IP address alone.

[@luisriba8082]

Even in the A+ is a guarantee question.

[@user-ol9ul9py1k]

Your explanation was excellent! Thank you so much for sharing. This channel truly deserves to be recognized by a wider audience.

[@ricardovargas678]

My undergrad and graduate degrees are in social sciences.I do not have any professional training in computer science. However, I feel like I have learned a lot by watching the content. The content encouraged me to set up a NAS in my home. I even have thought about enrolling in some free courses on networking. You really made these topics interesting and simple. I hope you keep creating content.

[@johngoe420]

Pre-liked so I can watch this at home. This Channel has old school learning vibes. Love it.

[@jojihue5777]

I have learnt so much from this channel and it is time to give back! I just joined as a member. Looking forward to learning more from it!

Thanks! Studying for CompTIA certs and to get a job, your videos have been great learning and refresher material!

[@PowerCertAnimatedVideos]

Thanks Griffin :)

[@glocrowhurst]

giggled out loud at the server-on-fire animation! Thanks for the amazing resource as always!!

[@shashankverma11]

This is the easiest explanation for APIPA. Thank you so much.

[@smartguykhii]

I like your all videos your videos very very knowledgeable with pics animation and your speaking English accent + words so simple I can hear learn easily. I apologize my English is weak. Haider Ali from Pakistan, Karachi.

[@eliecertuliocabrera]

[@sagardahal9192]

You have no idea how helpful your contents are. ❤

[@alexflores7652]

I love your explanations on the different subject matter and the animations make the explanation even easier to understand.

[@elim9054]

Someone had way too much fun animating the burning DHCP server

[@vladislavkaras491]

Really great content!
If I, who has been studied IT networking, never knew, that computers APIPA addresses can communicate with each other.

[@ahmad-murery]

I remember back in the days when all we had was a simple network hub which I believe they didn't have a built-in DHCP server, maybe I'm wrong but I think they were able to connect each others without any configurations,
anyways, the auto connection wasn't reliable so we were always configuring our own private IPs,
Thank you very much, that was very informative

[@jesuseduardo5658]

That's the principle of SLAAC in IPv6. This is a really good explained video, thanks...

[@vighnesh.acharya]

The way you using computer talking is Awesome to understand

[@user-fu3xp2it2y]

Informative yet entertaining video, thank you for making videos like these! This was my favorite acronym when I was still studying. I would shout APIPA in class everytime I encounter it on packet tracer. APIPAAAAAA!!!

[@A_T359]

From an italian engineer, congratulations for the very interesting channel!

[@PowerCertAnimatedVideos]

Thank you very much!

[@anandhindu2804]

I already learned that from CompTIA lessons [Not for getting a job because I'm too young, just for learning more computer stuffs] and this video help me understand more about automatic IP address.

[@brandonfarfan1978]

Now I know what APIPA is. Thanks for the explanation.👍

I had been tinkering with my ESP8266 for a few days and I kept getting 169.254.x.x IPs. Other computers/mobile devices can connect to the Wifi except my lil esp. Thanks for making this video. At least part of the mystery is solved.

[@carabinapacifista5627]

Yay new video!

[@yiannisserpico2646]

Maybe you could say something more in detail and analysis on tthe self assignment ARP broadcast messaging in order same addresses get rid of. From the other hand, it is a very nice knowledge video, specially for networking beginners. Thanks!

[@atharshah6575]

Bro this channel is amazoning. Where is your website and more content like these

[@davidsonboy]

top vídeos obrigado !!!

[@gatkuothgatlekgeah329]

Does APIPA work the same on linux? What is the Linux command to troubleshoot?

[@sigitharyadi6513]

So that's why. Thank you.
