Answer from AI

A white IP address is a unique, public IP address that is directly assigned to a device on the Internet and is accessible from anywhere in the world. It does not use NAT (Network Address Translation) technology for internet access.

Main characteristics of a white IP:

  • Uniqueness: It does not repeat in the global network.
  • Publicity: It is accessible to other devices on the Internet.
  • Direct access: Allows external devices to connect directly to services running on the device with a white IP (e.g., web server, VPN server).
  • No NAT: No need for port forwarding or other configurations for external access.
