1.

What is the fundamental limitation of the IPv4 protocol that necessitated the development of IPv6?

a)

It is not compatible with hexadecimal notation.

b)

It does not support Network Address Translation (NAT).

c)

It has an insufficient number of unique addresses.

d)

It uses a complex 128-bit address structure.

2.

How many bits are used to construct a standard IPv6 address?

a)

256 bits

b)

128 bits

c)

64 bits

d)

32 bits

3.

According to the provided notes, which of the following IP addresses falls within a designated private range?

a)

100.10.20.30

b)

172.16.50.101

c)

192.169.1.1

d)

8.8.8.8

4.

A network device is configured to run both IPv4 and IPv6 protocol stacks simultaneously, allowing it to communicate on both types of networks. Which transition mechanism is being used?

a)

Dual Stack

b)

Translation

c)

Tunnelling

d)

Subnetting

5.

What is the primary function of Tunnelling as an IPv6 transition mechanism?

a)

To encapsulate IPv6 packets inside IPv4 packets to cross an IPv4-only network.

b)

To enable a device to have both an IPv4 and an IPv6 address simultaneously.

c)

To replace all IPv4 routers in a network with IPv6-compatible ones.

d)

To translate IPv6 addresses directly into IPv4 addresses at the network edge.

6.

Using the rules of IPv6 address compression, how would the hextet `0ACD` be correctly shortened?

a)

0ACD

b)

CD

c)

ACD

d)

::ACD

7.

How would the IPv6 address `2001:0DB8:ACAD:0000:0000:0000:0000:F001` be compressed to its shortest form?

a)

`2001:DB8:ACAD:0::F001`

b)

`2001:DB8:ACAD::F001`

c)

`2001:DB8:ACAD:0:0:0:0:F001`

d)

`2001::DB8:ACAD::F001`

8.

The notes specify that IPv6 addresses are represented using which number system for human readability?

a)

Binary

b)

Hexadecimal

Octal

d)

Decimal

9.

As described on the whiteboard, which type of communication sends a packet to the nearest of several devices that share the same address?

a)

Broadcast

b)

Unicast

c)

Multicast

d)

Anycast

10.

The notes identify two primary solutions that were developed to manage the problem of IPv4 address exhaustion. What are they?

a)

Dual Stack and Tunnelling

b)

Public and Private addressing

c)

Subnetting and Multicast

d)

Network Address Translation (NAT) and IPv6
