"The IPv6 Specification
The IPv6 specification is defined in RFC 1883 [2-2], with additional work that documents proposed enhancements to these efforts [2-3]. RFC 1883 summarizes the following changes from IPv4 to IPv6:
* Expanded Addressing Capabilities--Increasing the address size from 32 bits to 128 bits, supporting more levels of address hierarchy, many more addressable nodes, scalable multicast addresses, plus the "anycast" address, which is used to send a packet to any one of a group of nodes.
* Header Format Simplification--Eliminating or making optional some of the header fields, thus reducing the protocol processing overhead of the IPv6 header.
* Improved Support for Extensions and Options--Including more efficient forwarding, less stringent limits on the length of options, and greater flexibility for future options.
* Flow Labeling Capability--A new function which enables packets that belong to a particular traffic "flow" to be labeled for special handling.
* Authentication and Privacy--Extensions to support authentication, data integrity, and optional data confidentiality.
In order to support these design changes, the structure of the IPv6 packet varies somewhat from its predecessor, IPv4. First of all, fields that were seldom used have been eliminated. Second, fields that provide a specific function have been removed from the base header and placed in optional extension headers. In this way, the extension header or headers are only added when required by a specific protocol function, such as fragmentation or packet routing. There is also a recommended order for these extension headers, such that headers that are only germane to the end-to-end host process need not be examined by every router along the way. The next section will explore the IPv6 base header and all of the extension headers in detail."

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
