Initiative to bridge digital divide

Installing high-speed Internet infrastructure

Activity increasing digital divide

Creating a tech hub in a wealthy neighborhood

Advantage of IPV6 over IPv4

Larger address space

Benefit of redundant network paths

Improved fault tolerance

Characteristic of Internet's scalability

Ability to grow without major changes

Structure of packets sent over the Internet

Packets contain metadata and payload

Least likely contributor to digital divide

How fault tolerance works in network design

By using redundant connections

Explanation of packet reassembly

Packets are reassembled based on sequence numbers
