  2. IPv6 address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_address

    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 ...

  3. Link-local address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link-local_address

    Link-local addresses may be assigned manually by an administrator or by automatic operating system procedures. In Internet Protocol (IP) networks, they are assigned most often using stateless address autoconfiguration, a process that often uses a stochastic process to select the value of link-local addresses, assigning a pseudo-random address that is different for each session.

  4. Link-Local Multicast Name Resolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link-Local_Multicast_Name...

    The Link-Local Multicast Name Resolution (LLMNR) is a protocol based on the Domain Name System (DNS) packet format that allows both IPv4 and IPv6 hosts to perform name resolution for hosts on the same local link.

  5. IPv6 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6

    If IPv4 is still used in the local area network (LAN), however, and the ISP can only provide one public-facing IPv6 address, the IPv4 LAN addresses are translated into the public facing IPv6 address using NAT64, a network address translation (NAT) mechanism. Some ISPs cannot provide their customers with public-facing IPv4 and IPv6 addresses ...

  6. Solicited-node multicast address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solicited-node_multicast...

    A solicited-node multicast address is an IPv6 multicast address used by the Neighbor Discovery Protocol to determine the link layer address associated with a given IPv6 address, which is also used to check if an address is already being used by the local-link or not, through a process called DAD (Duplicate Address Detection). The solicited-node ...

  7. Multicast address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multicast_address

    A multicast address is a logical identifier for a group of hosts in a computer network that are available to process datagrams or frames intended to be multicast for a designated network service. Multicast addressing can be used in the link layer (layer 2 in the OSI model ), such as Ethernet multicast, and at the internet layer (layer 3 for OSI ...

  8. Miredo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miredo

    Miredo [1] is a Teredo tunneling client designed to allow full IPv6 connectivity to computer systems which are on the IPv4-based Internet but which have no direct native connection to an IPv6 network. Miredo is included in many Linux [2] [3] and BSD [4] [5] distributions and is also available for recent versions of Mac OS X. [6] (Discontinued)

  9. netstat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netstat

    On some systems, the protocol name may be followed by "4" or "6", depending on whether the protocol is running over IPv4 or IPv6. Local Address – The IP address of the local computer and the port number being used. The name of the local computer that corresponds to the IP address and the name of the port is shown unless the -n parameter is ...
