Assuming you mean in IPv4, then it's the broadcast address meaning all devices on the network segment should listen to and accept the packet.

The address space of IPV4 is limited to 4294967296 possible unique addresses.
32 bits in a IPv4 address
That's an iPv4 address. (4 bytes, 32 bits)
IPV4 is a kind of IP Address.
a TcP IPv4 ip address has 32 bits.
The size of an IPv4 address is 32 bits, or 4 bytes.
Hosts with the same network portion of their IPv4 address.
IP is the internet protocol that uniquely identifies a system on a network and there is no difference between IP and IPv4 infact IPv4 is a version of like IPv6.
Press and hold the Windows start key on the keyboard (just left of the space bar) and press "r". (If you are not sure about this just press start and type "run" and press enter). You should now get the command prompt. Type "ipconfig" do not type the quotation marks > then press enter. You will see IPv4 Address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway. The IPv4 Address.......... then the number is your IP Address.
IPv6 has a larger address space compared to IPv4, allowing for more unique addresses. This solves the issue of address exhaustion seen in IPv4.
The broadcast address on IPv4 networks is the subnet address, padded on the right with ones. For example, if the subnet address is 192.168.x.y, with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0, then the broadcast address is 192.168.255.255.
The IPv4 address is identical for all hosts in a broadcast domain. The IPv4 addresse varies in length. The IPv4 address is used to forward packets.
