Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

IPv6 has an increased address size from 32 bits to 128 bits, which increases the number of available IP addresses and solves the address space issues faced by IPv4. A is incorrect as the larger address space of IPv6 allows it to support the growth of the Internet. B is incorrect as the header size of IPv6 is 40 bytes. D is incorrect as IPv6 does include a version number in its header (4 bits). E is incorrect as IPv6 includes a hop limit (similar to the Time to Live field in IPv4 headers).
