Questions and Answers

What is the primary reason for the adoption of IPv6?

To increase the maximum datagram size
To increase the address space and eliminate the need for NATs (correct)
To provide improved quality of service (QoS) capabilities
To allow for fragmentation of datagrams

What is the purpose of the 'next header' field in the IPv6 datagram format?

To indicate the presence of fragmentation
To identify the priority of the datagram
To identify the upper-layer protocol for the data (correct)
To specify the hop limit for the datagram

What is the benefit of tunneling in the transition from IPv4 to IPv6?

It increases the security of IPv6 communications
It allows IPv6 routers to communicate directly with IPv4 routers
It eliminates the need for dual-stack routers
It enables IPv6 datagrams to be carried as payload in IPv4 datagrams (correct)
