d. 2102:0010::fc23:01:ab

Answer: C. Answers A, B, and D are incorrect because 0100 does not compact to 01. Answer B is also incorrect because 0010 does not compact to 001.

Q17. When using the dual-stack backbone, which of the following statements is correct?
a. The backbone routers have IPv4/IPv6 dual stacks, and end hosts do not.
b. The end hosts have IPv4/IPv6 dual stacks, and backbone routers do not.
c. Both the backbone routers and end hosts have IPv4/IPv6 dual stacks.
d. Neither the backbone routers nor end hosts have IPv4/IPv6 dual stacks.

Answer: A. The dual-stack backbone routers handle packets between IPv4 hosts and IPv6 hosts.

Q18. How does a dual-stack host know which stack to use to reach a destination?
a. It performs an ND, which returns the destination host type.
b. It performs a DNS request that returns the IP address. If the returned address is IPv4, the host uses the IPv4 stack. If the returned address is IPv6, the host uses the IPv6 stack.
c. The IPv6 stack makes a determination. If the destination is IPv4, the packet is sent to the IPv4 stack.
d. The IPv4 stack makes a determination. If the destination is IPv6, the packet is sent to the IPv6 stack.

Answer: B. DNS indicates which stack to use. DNS A records return IPv4 addresses. DNS AAAA records return IPv6 addresses.

a. 6to4
b. 6over4
c. IPsec
d. ISATAP

Answer: D

Questions 36 through 39 are based on the following scenario and Figure.

Figure: Company Adds Sites A and B
A company has an existing WAN that uses IPv4. Sites C and D use IPv4. As shown in Figure, the company plans to add two new locations (Sites A and B). The new sites will implement IPv6. The company does not want to lease more WAN circuits.

Q36. What options does the company have to connect Site A to Site B?

Answer: Implement a dual-stack backbone, or implement IPv4 tunnels between the sites.

Q37. What mechanism needs to be implemented so that IPv6 hosts can communicate with IPv4 hosts and vice versa?

Answer: NAT-PT is required to provide network address translation and protocol translation between IPv6 and IPv4 hosts.

Q38. If a dual-stack backbone is implemented, do all WAN routers and all hosts need an IPv6-IPv4 dual stack?

Answer: If a dual-stack backbone is implemented, only the WAN routers require an IPv6-IPv4 dual stack. End hosts do not need a dual stack.

Q39. If an IPv4 tunnel is implemented between Sites A and B, do all WAN routers require an IPv6-IPv4 dual stack?

Answer: No. All WAN routers still run the IPv4 stack, with two exceptions: the WAN routers at Sites A and B. These routers speak IPv6 within their sites and speak IPv4 to the WAN.

Q40. IPv6 uses how many more bits for addresses than IPv4?
a. 32
b. 64
c. 96
d. 128

Answer: C. IPv6 uses 128 bits for addresses, and IPv4 uses 32 bits. The difference is 96.

Q41. What is the length of the IPv6 header?
a. 20 bytes
b. 30 bytes
c. 40 bytes
d. 128 bytes

Answer: C. The IPv6 header is 40 bytes in length.

Q42. What address type is the IPv6 address FE80::300:34BC:123F:1010?
a. Aggregatable global
b. Unique-local
c. Link-local

Q43. What are three scope types of IPv6 addresses?
a. Unicast, multicast, broadcast

c. 3f::a7fb::b1:23
d. 3f00:0000:0000:a7fb::b1:23

Q45. What is NAT-PT?
a. Network Address Translation-Port Translation. Translates RFC 1918 addresses to public IPv4 addresses.
