Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

How many unique IP addresses could be made in a fixed-length IP address system using 6 bits (000000-111111)?

A	6 users
B	12 users
C	32 users
D	64 users

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -IPv6 uses 128-bit (2128) addresses, allowing 3.4 x 1038 unique IP addresses. This is equal to 340 trillion trillion trillion IP addresses.

Detailed explanation-2: -IPv4 addresses are 32-bit numbers. This means that there are 232, or just over four billion, possible addresses.

Detailed explanation-3: -IPv6 increases the IP address size from 32 bits to 128 bits, thereby supporting more levels of addressing hierarchy, a much greater number of addressable nodes, and simpler autoconfiguration of addresses. To simplify routing issues, IPv6 addresses are considered in two parts: a prefix and an ID.

Detailed explanation-4: -Essentially, IP addresses are how computers on the internet recognize one another. Your internet service provider (ISP) assigns IP addresses to your internet-connected devices, and every IP address is unique.
