IPv6 Address
Types
IPv6 has three types of addresses:
- Unicast—For a single interface.
- Multicast—For a set of interfaces on the same
physical medium. A packet is sent to all interfaces associated with
the address.
- Anycast—For a set of interfaces on different physical
media. A packet is sent to only one of the interfaces associated with
this address, not to all the interfaces.
