Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -An IPv6 address is 128 bits in length and consists of eight, 16-bit fields, with each field bounded by a colon. Each field must contain a hexadecimal number, in contrast to the dotted-decimal notation of IPv4 addresses.
Detailed explanation-2: -Remember, with IPv6 the standard prefix size for a typical network segment is a /64. This works out to 264 or 18, 446, 744, 073, 709, 551, 616 addresses that can be assigned to hosts.
