Dot-decimal notation - Definition

Dot-decimal notation is a method of expressing octets using base-10 rather than hexadecimal. Adding the dot allows for easy separation of the octets for a given value. For example, the hex value FF-00-00-00 can be expressed as 255.0.0.0 in dotted-decimal notation.

IP addresses for the TCP/IP protocol are almost universally written or typed in Dot-decimal notation.
