Once a unique link-local address is established, the IPv6 host determines whether the LAN is connected on this link to any router interface that supports IPv6. It does so by sending out an ICMPv6 router solicitation message to the all-routers [44] multicast group with its link-local address as source. If there is no answer after a predetermined ...
Windows XP users can use Dibbler, an open source DHCPv6 implementation. --update: Windows XP fully supports IPv6- but NOT IPv6 DNS queries (nslookup) [30] 6.x (Vista, 7, 8, 8.1), 10 RTM-Anniversary Update: Yes [31] Yes Yes [9] No rdnssd-win32 provides an open source implementation of ND RDNSS [32] 10 Creators Update and later Yes [31] Yes Yes ...
IPv6 was designed as the successor protocol for IPv4 with an expanded addressing space. IPv4, which has been in use since 1982, is in the final stages of exhausting its unallocated address space, but still carries most Internet traffic. [1]
IPv6 does not implement broadcast addressing. Broadcast's traditional role is subsumed by multicast addressing to the all-nodes link-local multicast group ff02::1. However, the use of the all-nodes group is not recommended, and most IPv6 protocols use protocol-specific link-local multicast groups to avoid disturbing every interface on a given ...
Supports IPv6 addresses under Windows using brackets as [IPv6]:port Windows File Explorer: Windows Tested with Windows 7–10, maybe XP: Yes Supports IPv6 addresses in the address field, using \\fe80--abcd-eff0.ipv6-literal.net using dashes instead of colons. Microsoft Exchange Server [1] Windows 2013+ Yes Internet Explorer [1] Windows 9+ Yes
The payload of an IPv6 packet is typically a datagram or segment of the higher-level transport layer protocol, but may be data for an internet layer (e.g., ICMPv6) or link layer (e.g., OSPF) instead. IPv6 packets are typically transmitted over the link layer (i.e., over Ethernet or Wi-Fi), which encapsulates each packet in a frame.

With space for about one trillion (10 12) prefixes, it is unlikely that two network prefixes in use by different organizations would be the same, provided each of them was selected randomly, as specified in the standard. When two such private IPv6 networks are connected or merged, the risk of an address conflict is therefore virtually absent.
