The easiest way that I know of to convert hex to decimal and vice versa is
by converting both to binary first.
With hex, every 4 bits of binary is equal to 1 number or letter in hex. And
of course, converting from decimal to binary is a piece of cake. So using
the table below shouldn't pose a problem.
Decimal Binary Hexadecimal
0 0000 0
1 0001 1
2 0010 2
3 0011 3
4 0100 4
5 0101 5
6 0110 6
7 0111 7
8 1000 8
9 1001 9
10 1010 A
11 1011 B
12 1100 C
13 1101 D
14 1110 E
15 1111 F
Now for an example. Convert 172.16.1.1 to Hexadecimal.
In binary that looks like
10101100 00010000 00000001 00000001
Now if every 4 bits of binary = 1 Hex character then the IP address above in
hex would be
AC100101
Please, someone correct me if I'm wrong.
