C is also correct, it does enhance security features.
DE

I think A is misleading, not really how it works.
GE
Gennie

B and D are definitely true!
KR
Kristofer

E is not accurate, subnet masks are similar in length.
SH

Wait, does IPv6 really improve security? Sounds too good to be true.
JA

I vaguely recall something about security improvements with IPv6, so option C might be true, but I need to double-check that.
ON
Onita

I think option B is correct because one of the main reasons for IPv6 was to increase the number of available IP addresses.
BE
Bettyann

I'm not too sure about option A; I thought IPv4 and IPv6 were separate and didn't really overlap like that.
NI
Nickolas

I remember studying that IPv6 does indeed use 128-bit addresses, so I think option D is definitely true.
DE
Denna
11 months ago
I remember learning about IPv6 improving security, so I think I know that one. The rest I'll have to guess on.
JU
Justine

The IPv6 address length is definitely 128 bits, so that's an easy one. The other details are a bit trickier, though.
JO
Jolene
12 months ago
Okay, I know IPv6 increases the address space, but I'm not sure about the other details. I'll have to read the options closely.
GA
Garry

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about the details of IPv6. Let me think through this carefully.

Wait, is this exam going to be on the internet? I heard IPv6 is for connecting your fridge to the cloud or something.

D) It uses 128-bit addresses.
LI

B) It increases the number of available IP addresses.
PE

B) It increases the number of available IP addresses.
AR
Arlette

Hmm, I think E is correct too. Longer subnet masks mean more efficient addressing, right?
DA
Dacia

C is also true. IPv6 has better security features than IPv4.
LU

C) It provides improved authentication and security.
NO

D) It uses 128-bit addresses.
KE

B) It increases the number of available IP addresses.
ME
Meghan

B and D for sure. More addresses and longer addresses, that's the way to go!
RE
Rebbeca
1 year ago
Definitely, IPv6 is the way to go for more addresses and longer addresses.
FL
Fletcher

D) It uses 128-bit addresses.
DE
Denise

B) It increases the number of available IP addresses.
LA
Larue

I agree with Lashawn, C is true. And E is also true because IPv6 uses longer subnet masks.
LA
Lashawn
2 years ago
I think C is also true because IPv6 provides better security features.
AL
Alyce
2 years ago
B and D are true.
JE
Jeannetta
2 years ago
Definitely D. IPv6 uses 128-bit addresses, that's a no-brainer!
LA
Lai
1 year ago
C is not correct. IPv6 does not necessarily provide improved authentication and security.
MI
Mitsue
1 year ago
B is also true. IPv6 increases the number of available IP addresses.
AS
Asha

Yes, D is correct. IPv6 does use 128-bit addresses.
