Abstract


 
 
 
 In this modern era of Internet, E-learning is very popular among Internet users, users utilize Internet to learn from their homes with little or less effort. However the need to upgrade the suite to counter the ever increasing needs of internet was recognized and IPv6 suite was approved in 1994. IPv6 not only overcomes the issue of depletion of network addresses but also provides various other features such as automation, scalability, security, and others such as multicasting etc. Migration to IPv6 is dependent on its performance against the IPv4 implemented system. In this paper evaluation of various performance metrics of e-learning network performance on IPv4 vs IPv6 implemented system were considered. The results show the difference in the performance which must be considered when adopting the newer version and/or its implication on the end-system application. A comparison of performance of IPv6 on the Linux operating system against other popular operating system such as Windows and MacOS was noted. Overall it was shown by results that the Linux implementation of e-learning over IPv6 outperformed the other commodity operating system.

Summary

Introduction

The terminology “E-Learning” has been around since 1999’s when the word was initially used at a course of CBT systems seminar. Starting with cognitive burden theory as their persuading logical reason, set up inside the logical writing a lot of sight and sound instructional structure rules that advance viable learning [6] and [7]. Many of those principles are "field-tested" in everyday learning settings and located to be effective there further [8]. The collected data from students indicated the need for improvement in the quality and service of online learning As it is seen, the internet world is shifting to Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) and making sure what protocol fits best for the need of the internet and will be adaptive to change.
