What is static address? Is static addressing and IP addressing same?

An IP (Internet Protocol) address is a label made up of numbers, which is assigned to devices that are connected to a network. It is used to identify and communicate with a device on a network. Static IP is a permanent IP address assigned to a computer by an internet service provider (ISP). Each time that computer connects to the Internet that particular IP address will be used and it is not changed. Dynamic IP address is a temporarily assigned IP address through the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
