Which IPv6 address block forwards packets to a multicast address (CCNA 200-301)
Which IPv6 address block forwards packets to a multicast address rather than a unicast address?
A) 2000::/3
B) FC00::/7
C) FE80::/10
D) FF00::/12
Solution
Correct answer: D) FF00::/12.
IPv6 uses multicast addresses to send packets to multiple destinations simultaneously.
The range of multicast addresses in IPv6 is defined within the block FF00::/12.
Therefore, any address within the range FF00::/12 forwards packets to a multicast address.
