$\fbox{\\\begin{minispace} \bf Traffic Class\\\end{minispace}}$ is known as the priority field of the IPv6 header field.

Further explanation:

The IPv6 is the recent used exchange internet protocol. It is the streamlines variant of IPv4 and removes the extra fields for better communication of network traffic.

Generally, the size of IPv6 header is 40 bytes. The various fields of IPv6 are as demonstrated below:

Upper Layer Protocol Data Unit: It contains the header of upper layer protocol and its payload. Upper layer protocol data unit is 65,535 bytes. If the length of payload is in excess of 65535 bytes, at that point payload is sent by Hop-by-Hop protocol header.

Extension headers: There may be any number of extensions headers in the IPv6 header and size is also variable. Each extension header denotes the next extension header. The last extension header represents the upper layer protocol data unit. The size of IPv6 extension headers has no limit.

The fields in the IPv6 are as below:

Version: The version of IP is 4 bits and put to 6 bits.

Traffic Class: Traffic class is known as priority field of the IPv6 header. The size of traffic field is 8 bits. It has the same functionality compare to IPv4 type service field. The default flow label is 0.

Flow Label: Flow label represents the sequence of packets from source to destination by using Ipv6 routers. The size of flow label is 20 bits. The source and destination can have multiple flows.

Payload length: The size of payload length is 16 bits.

Next Header: The size of next header is 8 bits.

Hop Limit: The size of hop limit is 8 bits.

Source Address: The size of source address is 128 bits.

Destination Address: The size of destination address is 128 bits.

The below figure shows the IPv6 and its different fields.

If we are using an 4-character password that contains only lowercase English alphabetic characters (26 different characters), ho

Trava [24]

Answer:

11,424,400 possible passwords

Explanation:

Since all characters are letters and only lowercase

we have 26∧4 = 456,976 possibilities

For a 5-character password which is still lower case sensitive.

we have 26∧5 = 11,881,376 possibilities

Many more possible passwords = (11881376-456976)

= 11,424,400 possible passwords

ddd [48]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

#include <stdio.h>

#include <stdlib.h>

int main()

{

FILE * file_object;

char file_name[100];

char ch;

int characters=0, words=0;

printf("Enter source file name: ");

scanf("%s", file_name); //asking user to enter the file name

file_object = fopen(file_name, "r"); //open file in read mode

if (file_object == NULL)

{

printf("\nUnable to open file.file not exist\n"); //check if the file is present or not

}

while ((ch = fgetc(file_object)) != EOF) //read each character till the end of the file

{

if (ch == ' ' || ch == '\t' || ch == '\n' || ch == '\0') //if character is space or tab or new line or null character increment word count

words++;

else

characters++; //else increment character count this assures that there is no spaces count

}

printf("The file story.txt has the following Statistics:\n"); //finally print the final statistics

if (characters > 0)

{

printf("Words: %d\n", words+1); //for last word purpose just increment the count of words

printf("Characters (no spaces): %d\n", characters);

}

fclose(file_object); //close the file object

return 0;
