The following are descriptions of the IPv6 standard EXCEPT:
A) It uses 128 bit addressing that is equivalent to 32 hexadecimal digits.
B) It uses 64 bits to represent a subnet (or network) address and 64 bits for a host address.
C) If necessary, the IP address can be automatically derived from the host's MAC address.
D) A host computer has to be configured with either an IPv4 or an IPv6 address, but not both.
E) An IPv4 address can be converted to an IPv6 address.

Option D is the only incorrect statement as an IPv6 stack can coexist with an IPv4 stack on the same device. All other statements are true, such as Option A - IPv6 uses 128-bit addressing, Option B - IPv6 uses 64 bits to represent the subnet and another 64 bits for the host address, Option C - IPv6 supports the incorporation of MAC address in the IP address, and Option E - IPv4 address can be converted to IPv6 address with the help of transition techniques.
