|
|
Increased address space-128 bits instead of 32 bits
|
|
|
Improved Packet Handling-simplified header with fewer fields
|
|
|
Eliminate the needs of NAT-since there is huge amount of addressing
|
|
|
Requires NAT to use private addressing internally and mapped to shared public address

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Explanation: The main advantage of IPv6 over IPv4 is its larger address space. The length of an IPv6 address is 128 bits, compared with 32 bits in IPv4. The address space therefore has 2128 or approximately 3.4×1038 addresses.
Detailed explanation-2: -The main difference between IPv4 and IPv6 is the address size of IP addresses. The IPv4 is a 32-bit address, whereas IPv6 is a 128-bit hexadecimal address. IPv6 provides a large address space, and it contains a simple header as compared to IPv4.
