IPv6 addresses are assigned to organizations in much larger blocks as compared to IPv4 address assignments—the recommended allocation is a / 48 block which contains 2 80 addresses, being 2 48 or about 2.8 × 10 14 times larger than the entire IPv4 address space of 2 32 addresses and about 7.2 × 10 16 times larger than the / 8 blocks of IPv4 ...
As a nibble typically is notated in hexadecimal format, a hextet consists of 4 hexadecimal digits. A hextet is the unofficial name for each of the 8 blocks in an IPv6 address. A hextet is also referred to as a segment, in some documentation. [3]
Multiple IPv6 addresses can be entered, as shown in the following example which uses a long command, not shown for brevity. The first two rows show that 3 of the entered addresses are in a /33 range, while 72 are in a /64. Blocking the /33 would affect 2G /64, that is, over 2 billion /64 allocations, but would block only 3 of the given addresses.
Using octets with all eight bits set, the representation of the highest-numbered IPv4 address is 255.255.255.255. An IPv6 address consists of sixteen octets, displayed in hexadecimal representation (two hexits per octet), using a colon character (:) after each pair of octets (16 bits are also known as hextet) for readability, such as 2001:0db8 ...
This gives a prefix length of 48 bits, which leaves room for a 16-bit subnet field and 64 bit host addresses within the subnets. Any IPv6 address that begins with the 2002:: / 16 prefix (in other words, any address with the first two octets of 2002 hexadecimal) is known as a 6to4 address, as opposed to a native IPv6 address which does not ...
the lower-order 32 bits to the binary value must be that of the IPv4 address of the host. For example, host 192.0.2.142 would use fe80:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:c000:028e as its link-local IPv6 address (192.0.2.142 is c000028e in hexadecimal notation). A shortened notation would be fe80::c000:028e.
