Thread is an IPv6-based, low-power mesh networking technology for Internet of things (IoT) products. [1] The Thread protocol specification is available at no cost; however, this requires agreement and continued adherence to an end-user license agreement (EULA), which states "Membership in Thread Group is necessary to implement, practice, and ship Thread technology and Thread Group specifications."
With the default value of 64, ranges with fewer IPv6 addresses than a /64 allocation are not considered. That means the results will not include a /n range with n > 64. |results=all Show all possible summaries, including any with a range that is too large to block (/n less than /16 for IPv4 or /19 for IPv6).
An IPv6 network uses an address block that is a contiguous group of IPv6 addresses of a size that is a power of two. The leading set of bits of the addresses are identical for all hosts in a given network, and are called the network's address or routing prefix .
The standard size of a subnet in IPv6 is 2 64 addresses, about four billion times the size of the entire IPv4 address space. Thus, actual address space utilization will be small in IPv6, but network management and routing efficiency are improved by the large subnet space and hierarchical route aggregation.
Special address blocks Address block Address range Number of addresses Scope Description 0.0.0.0/8 ... (included IPv6 address block 2002::/16). 192.168.0.0/16
A unique local address (ULA) is an Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) address in the address range fc00:: / 7. [1] These addresses are non-globally reachable [ 2 ] (routable only within the scope of private networks, but not the global IPv6 Internet).
Routing Locator (RLOC): A RLOC is an IPv4 or IPv6 address of an egress tunnel router (ETR). A RLOC is the output of an EID-to-RLOC mapping lookup. Endpoint ID (EID): An EID is an IPv4 or IPv6 address used in the source and destination address fields of the first (most inner) LISP header of a packet.
6LoWPAN (acronym of "IPv6 over Low-Power Wireless Personal Area Networks") [1] was a working group of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). [2] It was created with the intention of applying the Internet Protocol (IP) even to the smallest devices, [3] enabling low-power devices with limited processing capabilities to participate in the Internet of Things.
