IPv6 Addressing and EUI-64 Quiz

What is the main reason for the creation of IPv6 addressing?

• To reduce the size of IP addresses

• To enhance security

• To improve network speed

• To increase the number of available addresses

How many bits does an IPv6 address consist of?

• 128 bits

• 64 bits

• 32 bits

• 16 bits

What is the purpose of using hexadecimal values to represent IPv6 addresses?

• To increase security

• To improve network performance

• To reduce the number of characters in the address

• To simplify routing tables

How many groups are there in an IPv6 address, and how many bits are in each group?

• 10 groups of 64 bits each

• 4 groups of 32 bits each

• 8 groups of 16 bits each

• 6 groups of 8 bits each

What is the purpose of using double colons in IPv6 address compression?

• To indicate a network prefix

• To separate different address components

• To replace groups of 0s

• To specify a unique address

How is an EUI-64 address created from a MAC address?

• By removing the manufacturer ID from the MAC address

• By changing the seventh bit of the MAC address

• By converting the MAC address to binary

• By adding 32 bits to the MAC address

What is the purpose of adding 'ff:fe' in the middle of an EUI-64 address?

• To improve network performance

• To indicate a locally administered address

• To specify the network prefix

• To increase the address space

How many bits are added to a 48-bit MAC address to create an EUI-64 address?

• 8 bits

• 16 bits

• 32 bits

• 64 bits

What is the significance of the OUI in a MAC address?

• It represents the network prefix

• It indicates the manufacturer ID

• It specifies the host portion of the address

• It determines the address class

What is the purpose of the U/L bit in an EUI-64 address?

• To determine the host portion of the address

• To indicate the network prefix

• To specify the address class

• To convert between universal and local address
