A DWORD is actually a data type used in programming. Officially it's an
unsigned long integer which is defined to be 32 bits wide.
To convert an IP address to a DWORD you need to do the following:
192.168.100.2
Convert each octet into 8 bit binary:
11000000 10101000 01100100 00000010
now combine them together
11000000101010000110010000000010
and finally convert back into decimal
3232261122
Voilla!
Mark.

Hi all,
How do you convert an ip address to a dword, and how does dword
work? Are there any white papers on this?
Thanks and regards,
