It delves into the differences between IPv4 and IPv6, noting that IPv4 has been the standard for a long time, while IPv6 was developed to address the shortage of available IPv4 addresses. The tutorial compares the formats of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, emphasizing the longer, hexadecimal format of IPv6. It concludes with a discussion on the structure of IPv4 addresses, using examples to illustrate their format.

What is the main difference between IP addresses and MAC addresses?
