Summary

In this chapter we have examined the future of the Internet Protocol (IP) as embodied by IPv6, which is the next -generation IP. The areas in which IPv6 introduces the greatest changes are the areas of security, addressing, routing, and quality of service. Much of the detail in IPv6 differs from IPv4, and these changes were covered in detail in this chapter.

Questions

  1. 1080::151:200A:305C

  2. 1080:0:0:0: 151:200A:305C

  3. 1080:0:0:0:*:151:200A:305C
