We just saw that the mask determines where the boundary between the network and host portions of the IP address lies. This boundary is important: If it is set too far to the right, there are lots of ...

• Document IPv4 and IPv6 addressing details. • Test connectivity using ping for both protocols. • Trace the route of packets to verify end-to-end connectivity. Device Interface IPv4 Address / Subnet ...

Abstract: In the Internet, nodes are identified using IP addresses that depend on their topological location. IPv4/IPv6 translation technology involves address mapping between IPv6 and IPv4 nodes and ...

In this chapter, you will learn about the addressing used in IPv4 and IPv6. We'll assign addresses of both types to various interfaces on the hosts and routers of the Illustrated Network. We'll ...

Abstract: With IPv4 addresses being exhausted, network engineers and researchers are encouraged to adopt IPv6. But before using the IPv6 network directly, engineers need to test their hardware and ...
