Which of the following statements is true regarding the comparison of IPv6 with IPv4?
  1. IPv6 has 128 bits while IPv4 has 48 bits.
  2. IPv6 has 48 bits while IPv4 has 32 bits.
  3. IPv6 has 128 bits while IPv4 has 32 bits.
  4. IPv6 has 128 bits while IPv4 has 64 bits.
Explanation
Answer: C - The statement that is true regarding IPv6 and IPv4 is that IPv6 has 128 bits, where as IPv4 has 32 bits.

Key Takeaway: IPv4 is 32 bits in length, whereas IPv6 is 128 bits in length. The A resource records in DNS maps host names to IPv4 addresses and AAAA resource records in DNS maps host names to IPv6 addresses. In IPv4, the Header includes a checksum and in IPv6, the Header does not include a checksum. IPv4 is configured either manually or through DHCP, whereas IPv6 does not require manual configuration or DHCP.
