IP Connectivity

Which two IPv6 addresses are used to provide connectivity between two routers on a shared link?

Choose two
  • A FF02::0001:FF00:0000/104
  • B ff06:bb43:cc13:dd16:1bb:ff14:7545:234d
  • C 2002::512:1204b:1111::1/64
  • D 2001:701:104b:1111::1/64
  • E ::ffff:10.14.101.1/96
Explanation

Only two of these strings are validly formatted, non-multicast addresses: 2001:701:104b:1111::1/64 is a properly formed global unicast address, and ::ffff:10.14.101.1/96 is a validly formatted IPv4-mapped IPv6 address, both using "::" no more than once with correctly sized hextets. The others are unusable here: any address beginning with FF (the FF02::.../104 solicited-node template and the ff06:... string) is multicast rather than a unicast interface address, and the remaining choice illegally repeats "::" and contains a five-digit hextet, making it invalid syntax.
