Question 1

Why would I need to convert an IP to binary?

Accepted Answer

It is primarily used for calculating subnets, determining CIDR notation, and understanding firewall configurations or access control lists (ACLs) that rely on binary bitmasking.

Question 2

Does this tool support IPv6?

Accepted Answer

While most common IP to Binary converters focus on IPv4, some advanced tools can process IPv6 addresses by converting their hexadecimal format into 128-bit binary strings.

Question 3

Is binary representation case-sensitive?

Accepted Answer

No, binary strings only consist of '0' and '1', so they are not case-sensitive.
