  2. IPv6 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6

    IPv6 implements the Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP, ND) in the link layer, which relies on ICMPv6 and multicast transmission. [5]: 210 IPv6 hosts verify the uniqueness of their IPv6 addresses in a local area network (LAN) by sending a neighbor solicitation message asking for the link-layer address of the IP address. If any other host in the ...

  3. IPv6 packet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_packet

    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.

  4. IPv6 address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_address

    An Internet Protocol version 6 address (IPv6 address) is a numeric label that is used to identify and locate a network interface of a computer or a network node participating in a computer network using IPv6. IP addresses are included in the packet header to indicate the source and the destination of each packet.

  5. IPv6 deployment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_deployment

    IPv6 support in the Linux kernel was originally developed by Pedro Roque and integrated into mainline at the end of 1996, which was one of the earliest implementations of an IPv6 stack in the world. [13] 6bone (an IPv6 virtual network for testing) is started. 1997: By the end of 1997 IBM's AIX 4.3 is the first commercial platform supporting ...

  6. Address Resolution Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Address_Resolution_Protocol

    IPv6 uses the Neighbor Discovery Protocol and its extensions such as Secure Neighbor Discovery, rather than ARP. Computers can maintain lists of known addresses, rather than using an active protocol. In this model, each computer maintains a database of the mapping of Layer 3 addresses (e.g., IP addresses ) to Layer 2 addresses (e.g., Ethernet ...

  7. IP fragmentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_fragmentation

    An example of the fragmentation of a protocol data unit in a given layer into smaller fragments. IP fragmentation is an Internet Protocol (IP) process that breaks packets into smaller pieces (fragments), so that the resulting pieces can pass through a link with a smaller maximum transmission unit (MTU) than the original packet size.

  9. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_Host_Configuration...

    The details of the protocol for IPv4 and IPv6 differ sufficiently that they may be considered separate protocols. [12] For the IPv6 operation, devices may alternatively use stateless address autoconfiguration. IPv6 hosts may also use link-local addressing to achieve operations restricted to the local network link.
