IPv6 vs IPv4 Differences
A
- IPSec built-in
- No more broadcasts
- Anycast: one-to-the-nearest
- Stateless auto-config (SLAAC) – Plug-n-Play – PC configures itself to IPv6 using router advertisements to
get the first 64 bits of the IPv6 network ID - Stateful auto-config – DHCPv6
- Multiple addresses assigned to hosts
- No more subnet masks/all CIDRs
- IPv6 address assigned by ISPs, not internet registries
