Zorluk: OrtaIPv6 Address Types and EUI-64

An enterprise host generates an IPv6 Link-Local address on an Ethernet interface using SLAAC and the standard EUI-64 process. Which two statements regarding the resulting IPv6 address structure and generation rules are correct?

  1. The link-local prefix begins with FE80::/10FE80::/10, where the first 10 bits are fixed as binary 1111 1110 101111\ 1110\ 10.Cevap
  2. The 7th bit of the first byte (Universal/Local bit) in the MAC address is inverted from 0 to 1.Cevap
  3. C
    The 16-bit hexadecimal value FFFFFFFF is inserted between the OUI and the vendor-assigned portion of the MAC address.
  4. D
    The 7th bit of the first byte is set to 0 to indicate that the address is globally unique and universally administered.

Cevap

The correct statements are that IPv6 link-local addresses use the prefix FE80::/10 (first 10 bits fixed as 1111 1110 10) and that the EUI-64 process inverts the 7th bit (Universal/Local bit) of the first byte of the MAC address.
The IPv6 link-local address range is defined by RFC 4291 as starting with the prefix FE80::/10, which fixes the first 10 bits to 1111 1110 10. Additionally, when deriving a 64-bit interface identifier from a 48-bit MAC address using EUI-64, the 7th bit of the MAC address's first byte (the U/L bit) must be inverted from 0 to 1 for burned-in universal addresses.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the IPv6 Link-Local prefix definition.
Link-Local addresses belong to the block FE80::/10 (binary 1111 1110 10xx xxxx).
Standard IPv6 addressing architecture reserves the first 10 bits for link-local unicast scope.
2
Analyze the IEEE 48-bit MAC to 64-bit EUI-64 conversion rules.
The 48-bit MAC is split into two 24-bit halves, FFFE is inserted in between, and the 7th bit of the first byte is inverted.
Inverting the U/L bit (bit 7) allows burned-in MAC addresses (which have U/L = 0) to produce an interface ID where 1 represents universal scope.
