To address the limitations of IP version 4, a major effort had to be undertaken via IETF that resulted in the design of IP version 6 and there are still is significant reluctance in the adoption of this new version. However, no such major effort is needed to address the limitations of TCP. Explain why this is the case.

When we use ipv6 and ipv4 together with the help of tunneling. So if the source set the hop count so will tunnel decrement the hop count. And if tunnel decrement it so wheater it decrement at both start and end of tunnel. Suppose source set hop limit to 16 and there are 2 router and tunnel on the path. So what will be the hop count after received by receiver.

Consider an initially empty hash table of length 10. Following set of keys are inserted using open addressing with hash function h(k) = kmod 10 and linear probing. The number of different insertion sequence of the key values using the given hash function and linear probing will result ... to send the packet from source to destination with minimum number of hops. D) both b and c. I think it is B).

Consider the following statements with respect to IPv6 : S1 : IPv6 packet has field for the header checksum. S2 : It has an explicit extension header for fragmentation. S3 : It has encrypted security payload (ESP) extension header that ensures the integrity of ... .? I know that integrity is provided by auth. extension header and confidentiality by ESP.But can ESP provides message integrity also?

True or false - 1. In Ipv4 fragmentation can be done both at Source and intermediate routers. 2. In Ipv6 fragmentation can be done only at Source and not intermediate routers. 3. In both IPv6/4 reassembly is done only at the destination. 4. Ipv6 is connection ... - Is fragmentation done at the Source in Ipv4? Should the 1) be false since segmentation is done and hence fragmentation can be avoided?
