Question 1

What is the primary function of an IP address in networking?

  • It provides encryption for data transfer.

  • It uniquely identifies a device on a network.

  • It compresses data for faster transmission.

  • It manages traffic flow between devices.

Question 2

Which of the following is a key difference between IPv4 and IPv6?


  • IPv4 uses a 128-bit address, while IPv6 uses a 32-bit address.

  • IPv4 allows for 340 undecillion addresses, while IPv6 supports 4 billion addresses.

  • IPv4 uses decimal notation, while IPv6 uses hexadecimal notation.

  • IPv6 is less secure than IPv4.

Question 3

Which of the following protocols is responsible for mapping an IP address to a MAC address in a local network?

  • ARP

  • DNS

  • DHCP

  • ICMP

Question 4

What is the maximum number of unique addresses that IPv6 can support?

  • 4.3 billion

  • 16.7 million

  • 256 billion

  • 340 undecillion

Question 5

Which addressing mode in IPv4 sends data to all devices in a network?

  • Unicast

  • Broadcast

  • Multicast

  • Multicast

Question 6

How does Subnetting help in managing large networks?

  • It eliminates the need for routers.

  • It allows efficient usage of IP addresses by dividing large networks into smaller subnets.

  • It increases the total number of devices that can be connected to a network.

  • It combines multiple networks into one.

Question 7

In which case would the subnet mask "255.255.255.0" typically be used?

  • A network with fewer than 20 devices

  • A Class A network

  • A Class C network

  • A private network requiring extensive address translation

Question 8

Which of the following is NOT a valid host IP address in a subnet with the network address "192.168.1.0/24"?

  • 192.168.1.5

  • 192.168.1.255

  • 192.168.1.0

  • 192.168.1.1

Question 9

What is the purpose of the "Next Header" field in the IPv6 header?

  • It specifies the type of extension header following the IPv6 header.

  • It indicates the source address of the packet.

  • It checks for errors in the data packet.

  • It determines the maximum number of hops the packet can take.

Question 10

What is one of the primary benefits of IPv6 over IPv4?

  • IPv6 uses a simpler header format.

  • IPv6 does not require routers for packet forwarding.

  • IPv6 reduces the need for encryption.

  • IPv6 supports a larger address space, making it suitable for future growth.
