A company is transitioning from IPv4 to IPv6 across their network.

Reports:

  • !Engineers are confused by IPv6 formatting and shortening rules
  • !Devices are not communicating properly after the migration
  • !Difficulty identifying correct IPv6 address types
  • !Automatic address configuration (SLAAC) is not functioning as expected

Analyze IPv6 addresses, identify address types, understand automatic configuration, and troubleshoot IPv6 communication behavior.
