192.0.2.1 is an IPv4 documentation address

192.0.2.1 belongs to 192.0.2.0/24, one of the IPv4 TEST-NET ranges reserved for documentation, tutorials, and configuration examples.

Documentation addresses should not be used for real hosts or appear on the public internet. Using reserved examples avoids accidentally publishing someone else's live address in guides and sample configurations.

Its IPv4-mapped IPv6 representation is ::ffff:c000:201. This preserves the example IPv4 value in the ::ffff:0:0/96 prefix for IPv6-aware tools.

See RFC 5737 for the three TEST-NET blocks.
