  2. Carrier-grade NAT - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-grade_NAT

    Carrier-grade NAT. Carrier-grade NAT (CGN or CGNAT), also known as large-scale NAT (LSN), is a type of network address translation (NAT) used by ISPs in IPv4 network design. With CGNAT, end sites, in particular residential networks, are configured with private network addresses that are translated to public IPv4 addresses by middlebox network address translator devices embedded in the network ...

  3. IPv6 address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_address

    Decomposition of an IPv6 address into its binary form. 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.

  4. Zero-configuration networking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-configuration_networking

    Both IPv4 and IPv6 hosts may randomly generate the host-specific part of an autoconfigured address. IPv6 hosts generally combine a prefix of up to 64 bits with a 64-bit EUI-64 derived from the factory-assigned 48-bit IEEE MAC address. The MAC address has the advantage of being globally unique, a basic property of the EUI-64.

  5. Unique local address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unique_local_address

    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).

  6. Teredo tunneling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teredo_tunneling

    The native IPv6 host then responds as usual to the client's Teredo IPv6 address, which eventually causes the packet to find a Teredo relay, which initiates a connection to the client (possibly using the Teredo server for NAT piercing). The Teredo Client and native IPv6 host then use the relay for communication as long as they need to.

  7. DHCPv6 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DHCPv6

    The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol version 6 (DHCPv6) is a network protocol for configuring Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) hosts with IP addresses, IP prefixes, default route, local segment MTU, and other configuration data required to operate in an IPv6 network.

  8. IPv6-to-IPv6 Network Prefix Translation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6-to-IPv6_Network...

    IPv6-to-IPv6 Network Prefix Translation (NPTv6) is a specification for IPv6 to achieve address-independence at the network edge, similar to network address translation (NAT) in Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4).

  9. Prefix delegation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefix_delegation

    In IPv6 global addresses are used end-to-end, so even home networks may need to distribute public, routable IP addresses to hosts. Since it would not be practical to manually provision networks at scale, in IPv6 networking, DHCPv6 prefix delegation ( RFC 3633 ; RFC 8415 § 6.3) is used to assign a network address prefix and automate ...
