Automatic Private IP addressing (APIPA) allows a Windows host to self-configure and IPv4 address and subnet mask when DHCP is unavailable. APIPA uses an address block range between 169.254.0.0 and 169.254.255.255. APIPA-assigned addresses are valid only for communications within a network segment that a given host is connected to (a host with APIP-assigned address cannot connect to the internet).
True
Which of the following answers refers to a valid IPv6 EUI-64 format address generated from a MAC address of 29:88:68:0B:1B:CA?
2001:DB8:ABCD:12:2B88:68FF:FE0B:1BCA
A type of network traffic intended for a particular group of hosts is called:
Multicast
A type of network traffic intended for a single host identified by a unique IP address is referred to as:
Unicast
Which of the following answers refers to an IPv6-only, one -to-nearest data transmission type?
Anycast
A network host with unknown IPv4 address can be reached via:
Broadcast
An IPv6 link-local address is an equivalent of IPv4’s:
Public IP address
Which of the answers listed below refers to an IPv6 link-local address?
