Which type of IPv6 address is similar to a unicast address but is (CCNA 200-301)
Updated on 09/23/2024
Which type of IPv6 address is similar to a unicast address but is assigned to multiple devices on the same network at the same time?
A. global unicast address
B. link-local address
C. anycast address
D. multicast address
Solution
Correct answer: C. anycast address.
An anycast address is similar to a unicast address in that it is assigned to a group of devices, but it is designed to route packets to the nearest device in the group based on the routing protocol's metrics. This allows multiple devices to share the same anycast address, and packets sent to that address will be delivered to the closest device.
