Q

What are 2 uses for link-local addresses?

A

Communication with directly connected neighbors

Q

3 steps for a host to get an IPv6 address using SLAAC

A
  1. Discover the v6 prefix on the link using NDP RS/RA messages.
  2. Create an interface ID and append it to the prefix.
  3. Test that it’s not a duplicate using DAD.

Q

How does DAD work?

A

Host sends a NS message for it’s IPv6 address. If someone answers, must be a duplicate.

43
Q

When a host uses SLAAC, what crucial data is it missing?

A

the DNS server’s address

44
Q

When a router receives a link-local packet, what are the steps it takes to forward it out another interface?

A

Link local packets are not forwarded out other interfaces; they are scoped to a single link.

45
Q

4 steps to creating an EUI-64 address

A
  1. Take the MAC address of the interface, and split it in half.
  2. Insert FF:FE into the middle of the MAC.
  3. Invert the 7th bit of the the result from step 2.
  4. Append this to the IPv6 prefix.
46
Q

What are the 2 rules for shortening IPv6 addresses?

A
  1. In each quartet, remove any leading 0’s.

2. For any single sequence of quartet’s whos value is 0, collapse that sequence into ::
