Write down three benefits of switching to IP Version 6 3 Marks?

The one main benefit, and the one thing that is likely to force the change eventually, is the larger address space. Soon it won't be possible to get a public IP address, for the current version, IP version 4.Second, IP version 6 is organized into several layers of hierarchy. This may eventually help reduce the routing tables. Currently, the routers at the core of the Internet, running BGP, have to have entries for over 250,000 different networks! That is, they need information on how to reach them. With IP version 6, it is possible - at least in some cases - that all the companies that are connected to an ISP are treated, by other ISPs, as a single route - that is, the routes are combined into a single "super-network" for the outside world.IP version 6 also has lots of additional options, like an improved security - but this isn't really a compelling reason to switch, since these options can be added to IP version 4, too, using additional protocols.

How many octets does an ip address have?

There are 2 main IP protocols. In IP version 4, each IP address has 4 octets. In IP version 6, each IP address has 16 octets.If somebody says "IP address" without further qualifications, he probably means IP version 4, since that is the current standard. IP version 6 is the planned future standard.There are 2 main IP protocols. In IP version 4, each IP address has 4 octets.

What is a bit related to IP addresses?

A bit is a binary digit - a digit that can be either a "one" or a "zero" (or true/false, or yes/no - the idea is that there are two different states).Each IP address contains 32 bits. That's version 4, the IP currently used. In IP version 6 (expected to be used fairly soon, due to lack of addresses in IP version 4), each IP address has 128 bits.A bit is a binary digit - a digit that can be either a "one" or a "zero" (or true/false, or yes/no - the idea is that there are two different states).Each IP address contains 32 bits.
