Pinging different IP address than what I entered [duplicate]

Can anyone please explain why CMD pings a different IP address than the one I am searching for?

Example


Solution 1:

On Windows CMD if you put leading zeros on the IP address means octal.

It is interpreting 016 as 16 octal and converts it to 14 decimal.

You can use octal, decimal or hexadecimal notation as in the following example:

22.101.31.153 (decimal)
026.0145.037.0231 (octal)
0x16.0x65.0xF1.0x99 (hexadecimal)
