Answer:
ipv4 - 32 bits
ipv6 = 128 bits.
Explanation:
ipv4 has four periods each having value from 0 to 255.
i.e. 0 to 2^8-1 so it takes 8 bits.
Total size = 4 × 8 bits = 32 bits
ipv6 has 8 periods each having value from 0 to ffff
i.e. 0 to 65,536 or 0 to 2^16 - 1 so it takes 16 bits
Total size = 8 × 16 bits = 128 bits
