The IPv6 Hop Limit field is similar in function to the TTL (Time to Live) field in IPv4, both are used to limit the number of times a packet can traverse the network. However, the Hop Limit field operates differently from the TTL field. In IPv4, the TTL field decrements at each hop, while in IPv6, the Hop Limit field decrements the same way, but it is measured in units of hops (rather than seconds).
