Which IPv6 address block sends packets to a group address rather than a single address?
A) 2000::/3
B) FC00::/7
C) FE80::/10
D) FF00::/8
Solution
Correct answer: D) FF00::/8.
The IPv6 address block FF00::/8 is reserved for multicast addresses. Multicast addresses in IPv6 allow packets to be sent to multiple destinations simultaneously. The FF00::/8 range is specifically designated for IPv6 multicast addresses, and various multicast addresses within this range are used for different purposes, such as solicited-node multicast addresses, multicast group addresses, etc.
