Ip address question.....

Hello All,

                  May be it is silly question here. I read the RFC791 to
understand that why the IP address is 32 bits but there is no more
information about it.

May be it is irrelevant question, but I would like to know why the IP
address is 32 bits only why not 48 bits.

Look forward to your reply.

Thanks in advance.
