Address Mask• An IPv6 Address is Divided Into Network Portion & Host Portion (just 

like IPv4)

• Mask Specifies the Division Betwwen Network & Host Portion of pAddress – Determines the Block Size To‐Be‐Routed

• CIDR Notation ALWAYS USED – No Explicit Mask

IPv6 Address Notation

Classless Inter‐Domain Routing “CIDR”Notation Always Utilized

CIDR Notation Represents An IP Address & Mask in a Shorthand FormCIDR Notation Represents An IP Address & Mask in a Shorthand Form:

IPv4: 165.95.240.136/n

IPv6: 2607:b800:faa::/n 

Where n represents the number of bits in the subnet mask

19

IPv6 Address Types

• Unicast – One Destination Single Interface– Global

– Link & Site Local

– Loopback

• Anycast – Allows Multiple Devices to Share the Same Address– Router Selects the Closest Host

• Typically Used for Host Replication 

• Multicast – One Source to Many “Subscribers”– NOTE – No Broadcast Address in IPv6

Takeaway Summary

• The Industry is IPv4 Based Today• IPv4 Demand Continues• IPv4 Availability Pool Rapidly Decreasing or Depleted• IPv4 Availability Pool Rapidly Decreasing or Depleted• IPv6 Provides the Future for Continued Growth• “IPv6 Only” End Users Rapidly Growing• IPv6 Implementation Does Not Happen Overnight – Plan Today!• Focus Implementation Upon External Users• IPv6 is NOT Backward Compatible With IPv4, Thus Expect IPv4 and IPv6 To 

Be Maintained for Many Years to Come• IPv6 Address Allocation Focuses Upon Subnet Allocation, NOT Address p ,

Allocation• Don’t Loose Sight of IPv6 Is Still IP.• IPv6 Is More Than Expanded IP Address Space.

Some Final TriviaWhat Happened to Version 5 or IPv5 of the Internet Protocol?

“IP 5 Si l D N t E i t!“IPv5 Simply Does Not Exist!Version 5 was intentionally skipped to avoid confusion, or at least to rectify it. The problem with version 5 relates to an experimental TCP/IP protocol called the Internet Stream Protocol, Version 2, originally defined in RFC 1190. This protocol was originally seen by some as being a peer of IP at the Internet Layer in the TCP/IP architecture and these packets were assigned IP version 5 to differentiate them from “normal” IPv4 packets. This protocol never went anywhere, but to be absolutely sure that there would be no confusion, version 5 was skipped over in favor of version 6.”
