Q

What is the purpose of the next header field in an IPv6 header?

A

Used to describe what the next extension header (if any) is or where the actual payload begins

25
Q

What is the purpose of the next hop field in an IPv6 header?

A

Equivalent to the TTL field in IPv4

26
Q

What’s the purpose of extension headers in an IPv4 field?

A

They replace options in IPV4, that cover specific functions like fragmentation, reassembly, and IPSec

27
Q

What is the format of an IPv6 address?

A

It contains 8 16-bit double-octets that are expressed as 4 hex digits

28
Q

What is canonical notation?

A

IPv6 addresse format with a double octet of zeros with colon delimitation and zero compression

29
Q

How is an IPv6 address divided?

A

64 bits to the network ID and 64 bits to the Interface ID

30
Q

What type of addressing is not used in IPv6

A

Broadcast

31
Q

What does the first 3 bits in the network ID of a globally scoped unicast IPv6 address define?

A

That the address is within the global scope, in hexadecimal format it is either a 2 or 3

32
Q

How many bits are assigned to the network ID of and IPv6 address

A

45 bits

33
Q

What is an interface ID in IPv6

A

The host IP address

34
Q

How are Interface IDs derrived?

A
  1. A translation mechanism in the IPv6 driver software creates a 64-bit interface ID from the 48-bit MAC address
  2. Client devices uses pseudorandom number known as temporary interface ID
35
Q

What is a link local address in IPv6?

A

Private addressing that is not forwarded by routers, equivalent to APIPA in IPv4

36
Q

What is the link local IP range?

A

fe80::/10; first 10 bits are fe80, the next 54 bits are zero, followed by the last 64-bits of the interface ID.

37
Q

What is a zone index?

A

Parameter assigned by a host to distinguish ambiguous interface addresses within a link local scope.

38
Q

What is the Neighbor Discovery (ND) Protocol?

A

IPv6 protocol used to identify link local nodes, similar to ARP in IPv4

39
Q

Name the functions of the Neighbor Discovery (ND) protocol

A
  1. Address autoconfiguration
  2. Prefix discovery
  3. Local Address resolution
  4. Redirection
  5. Stateless Address Autoconfiguration
  6. ICMPv6
40
Q

How is address auto configuration performed in IPv6?

A

A host uses neighbor solicitation (NS) and neighbor advertisement (NA) messages to detect whether an address is already in use on the local network and then the host can configure an IPv6 address

41
Q

What is prefix discovery?

A

How a host distinguishes between destinations that are link local destinations that it can reach only through a router.

42
Q

What is local address resolution?

A

Allows a host to discover other nodes and routers on the local network (neighbors) by using neighbor solicitation (NS) and neighbor advertisement (NA) messages

43
Q

What is redirection?

A

Enables a router to inform a host of a better route to a particular destination.

44
Q

What is stateless address autoconfiguration (SLAAC)?

A

Mechanism used in IPv6 for hosts to assign addresses to interfaces automatically by generating a link local address

45
Q

How is stateless address autoconfiguration (SLAAC) performed?

A

Using Neighbor discovery, the host transmits a Neighbor solicitation (NS) or listens for a Neighbor advertisement (NA) that will provide a network prefix or direct the host to a DHCPv6 server for stateful autoconfiguration

46
Q

What are the first 8 bits of an IPv6 Multicast address?

A

1111 1111 (255) or ff used to indicate that the address is within the multicast scope

47
Q

What IPv6 protocol is used for Multicast?

A

Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) allows nodes to join a multicast group and discover whether members of a group are present on a local subnet

48
Q

What function does multicast serve in an IPv6 link local network

A

It replaces broadcast addressing, allowing an interface to transmit to all interfaces or routers on the same local link

49
Q

What mechanisms are used to implement IPv4 and IPv6 in a network?

A
  1. Dual Stack hosts
  2. Tunneling
50
Q

What is a dual stack host?

A

A host or router that can run both IPv4 and IPv6 simultaneously and communicate with devices configured with either type of address

51
Q

What is tunneling in IPv6?

A

Used to deliver IPv6 packets across and IPv4 network by encapsulating an IPv6 packet into an IPv4 packet

52
Q

What protocols enable IPv6 tunneling?

A
  1. 6to4 automatic tunneling/IPv6 Rapid deployment (6RD)
  2. Microsoft Teredo protocol/ Unix Miredo package
  3. GRE (Generic routing encapsulation)
53
Q

How does the Teredo protocol function?

A

IPv6 packets are tunneled as IPv4-based UDP messages over port 3544 and requires compatible clients

54
Q

What is the prefix for a global unicast IPv6 address?

A

2000::/3

55
Q

What is the prefix for a link local unicast IPv6 address?

A

fe80::/10

56
Q

What is the prefix for a multicast IPv6 address?

A

ff00::/8

57
Q

What is the prefix for a link local multicast IPv6 address?

A

ff02::/16

58
Q

What is the prefix for a loopback IPv6 address?

A

::1/128
