IPv6 Address Expression
IPv6 Address Format

 An IPv6 address is 128 bits long. It is written as eight groups of four
hexadecimal digits, where each group is separated by a colon (:).
2031:0000:130F:0000:0000:09C0:876A:130B
IPv6 Address Compressed Format

 Any zeros at the beginning of a group can be omitted.
• 2031:0:130F:0:0:9C0:876A:130B
 A double colon (::) can be used in an IPv6 address when two or more
consecutive groups contain all zeros.
• 2031:0:130F::9C0:876A:130B

IPv6 Address Structure

An IPv6 address has two parts:
 Network prefix: corresponds to the network ID of an IPv4 address.
 Interface identifier (interface ID): corresponds to the host ID of an IPv4 address.
The interface ID can be generated in the following ways:
 Manually configured.
 Automatically generated through the system software.
 Generated in IEEE 64-bit Extended Unique Identifier (EUI-64) format.
24 bits 24 bits
cccccc0gcccccccc cccccccc dddddddd dddddddddddddddd
24 bits 16 bits 24 bits
cccccc0gcccccccc cccccccc 11111111 11111110 dddddddd dddddddddddddddd

IPv6 Address Classification
IPv6 Address Types

 IPv6 unicast address
• Identifies an interface. Packets sent to an IPv6 unicast address are delivered
to the interface identified by the unicast address.
 IPv6 multicast address
• Identifies a group of interfaces. Packets sent to an IPv6 multicast address
are delivered to all the interfaces identified by the multicast address.
 IPv6 anycast address
• Identifies a group of interfaces. Packets sent to an anycast address are
delivered to the nearest interface that is identified by the anycast address,
depending on the routing protocols.
• IPv6 anycast and unicast addresses use the same address space.

IPv6 Address Classification—
Global Unicast Address

Global Unicast Address
 Similar to an IPv4 public address.
 Consists of a global routing prefix, subnet ID, and interface ID.

IPv6 Address Classification— Principles Commands Suggestions
Link-Local Address
Link-Local Address
 Link-local addresses are used only for communication between nodes on the same
local link.
 A link-local address uses a link-local prefix FE80::/10.
 A link-local address does not have a global scope and is non-routable. Packets
with a destination link-local address cannot be routed beyond the link from where
the packets originate.

Other Unicast Addresses
 Unspecified address
• 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0/128 or ::/128
• Indicates that an interface or a node does not have an IP address.
 Loopback address
• 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1/128 or ::1/128
• Has the same function as the IPv4 loopback address 127.0.0.1.
• The loopback address cannot be used as the source or destination IP
address of packets to be forwarded.

• Address for all PIM routers: FF02:0:0:0:0:0:0:13

IPv6 Address Classification—
Anycast Address
Anycast address
 IPv6 anycast addresses are allocated from the unicast address space.
 When configuring an anycast address, you need to specify that it is an
anycast address to distinguish it from a unicast address.
 Subnet-router anycast address
• Packets sent to a subnet-router anycast address are delivered to the nearest
router on the subnet identified by the anycast address.
N bits 128-N bits
Subnet prefix 0

IPv6 Packet Format—Basic Header
IPv6 Packet Format

 An IPv6 packet has three parts: an IPv6 basic header, one or more IPv6
extension headers, and an upper-layer protocol data unit (PDU).
 An IPv6 basic header is fixed as 40 bytes long and has eight fields. Each
IPv6 packet must have an IPv6 basic header.
Version Traffic Class Flow Label
Payload Length Next Header Hop Limit

IPv6 Packet Format—Extension Header
Extension Header
 IPv6 uses extension headers to replace the Options field in the IPv4 header.
 An IPv6 packet may carry zero, one, or more extension headers.
 The extension header length is an integer multiple of 8 bytes.

Next
Header
Header Type Description
Field
Value
This header is used to specify sending parameters for each hop on the path of a packet. Every
intermediate node on the path needs to read and process the field. This header is used in the
Hop-by-Hop Options following applications:
0
header •Jumbo payload
•Prompting routers to check this option before the routers forward packets
•Used for resource reservation
Destination Options This header carries information that needs to be examined only by the destination node of a
60
header packet. Currently, this header is used in mobile IPv6.
Similar to the Loose Source and Record Route option in IPv4, this header is used by an IPv6
Routing header 43
source node to specify the intermediate routers that a packet must pass through.
Like IPv4 packets, IPv6 packets to be forwarded cannot exceed the MTU. When the packet
Fragment header 44 length exceeds the MTU, the packet needs to be fragmented. In IPv6, the fragmentation is
performed through the Fragment header.
This header is used in IPSec to provide data authentication, data integrity check, and packet
Authentication header 51
anti-replay. It also protects some fields in the IPv6 basic header.
Encapsulating Security Similar to the Authentication header, this header is used in IPSec to provide data authentication,
50
Payload header data integrity check, packet anti-replay, and IPv6 packet encryption.

ICMPv6—Error Messages
Classification of ICMPv6 error messages

 Destination Unreachable message (type1)
• Data packets cannot be forwarded to the destination node or an upper-layer
protocol.
 Packet Too Big message (type2)
• The size of a packet exceeds the link MTU of the outbound interface.
 Time Exceeded message (type3)
• The value of the Hop Limit field is 0.
• The reassembly time is longer than the specified period.
 Parameter Problem message (type4)
• The IPv6 basic header or extension header is incorrect.

ICMPv6—Information Messages
Classification of ICMPv6 information messages

 Echo Request message
• Sent to destination nodes. After receiving an Echo Request message, the
destination node responds with an Echo Reply message.
 Echo Reply message
• After receiving an Echo Request message, the destination node responds
with an Echo Reply message.

Neighbor Discovery—
Address Resolution
IPv6 address resolution is similar to IPv4 ARP.
 Implemented based on ICMPv6.
 Uses Neighbor Solicitation (NS) and Neighbor Advertisement (NA)
messages.
PC1 PC2
ICMP Type = 135 NS

Source = PC1
Destination = solicited-node multicast of PC2
Data = link-layer address of PC1
Query = What is your link-layer address? ICMP Type = 136
Source = PC2
NA Destination = PC1
Data = link-layer address of PC2

Neighbor Discovery
—Duplicate Address Detection

IPv6 DAD is similar to IPv4 gratuitous ARP.
 Implemented based on ICMPv6.
 Uses NS and NA messages.
tentative address 2000::1 PC1 2000::1

PC2
ICMP Type = 135 NS

Source = ::
Destination = FF02::1:FF00:1
Target Address = 2000::1
Query = Is anyone using this address? ICMP Type = 136
Source = 2000::1
NA Destination t = FF02::1
Target Address = 2000::1
Answer = I am using this address

Neighbor Discovery
—Router Discovery
Router discovery
 Implemented based on IGMPv6.
 Discovers routers connected to the local link.
 Obtains the prefix and configuration parameters for address
autoconfiguration.
 Uses Router Advertisement (RA) and Router Solicitation (RS) messages.
RA RS
ICMP Type = 134
Source = router link-local address
Destination = all-nodes multicast address (FF02::1) ICMP Type = 133
Data = Router lifetime, Cur hop limit, Autoconfig flag, Source = self interface address
options (prefix, MTU)...... Destination = all-router multicast address (FF02::2)

Neighbor Discovery
—Redirection
Redirection
 A gateway router sends a Redirection message to notify the sender of a
better forwarding path.
 ICMPv6 messages are used.
PC2 R2 PC1 R1
IPv6 message
Neighbor redirect packet definitions:

ICMPv6 Type = 137
Src = link-local address of Router A
Dst = link-local address of PC1
Data = target address (link-local
address of Router B), destination
address(address of PC2),options
Subsequent IPv6 message (header of redirected packet)

Path MTU
Path MTU
 The PMTU protocol is implemented through ICMPv6 Packet Too Big
messages.
PC1 R1 R2 R3 PC2
MTU=1500 MTU=1500 MTU=1400 MTU=1300
Packet with MTU=1500
ICMP error: packet too big, use MTU 1400
ICMP error: packet too big, use MTU 1300
Packet received Path MTU=1300

IPv6 Principles
 IPv6 Basics
 IPv6 Routing
• RIPng
• OSPFv3
• IS-IS IPv6
• BGP4+
 IPv6 Multicast
 IPv6 Transition

IPv6 Routing Protocol—RIPng
RIPng made the following modifications to RIP:

 RIPng uses UDP port 521.
 RIPng uses the destination addresses with 128-bit prefixes.
 RIPng uses link-local addresses as next hop addresses.
 RIPng uses the link-local address FE80::/10 as the source address to
send RIPng Update packets.
 RIPng periodically sends routing information in multicast mode and uses
FF02::9 as multicast address.
 A RIPng packet consists of a header and multiple route table entries
(RTEs).

IPv6 Routing Protocol—OSPFv3 (1)

Comparison between OSPFv3 and OSPFv2
 OSPFv3 and OSPFv2 are the same in the following aspects:
• Network type and interface type
• Interface state machine and neighbor state machine
• Link state database (LSDB)
• Flooding mechanism
• Five types of packets, including Hello, DD, LSR, LSU, and LSAck packets
• Route calculation

IPv6 Routing Protocol—OSPFv3 (2)
Comparison between OSPFv3 and OSPFv2

 OSPFv3 and OSPFv2 are different in the following aspects:
• OSPFv3 is based on links rather than subnets.
• OSPFv3 does not depend on IP addresses.
• OSPFv3 packets and LSA format change.
• Information about the flooding scope is added in LSAs of OSPFv3.
• OSPFv3 supports multi-process on a link.

• OSPFv3 packets do not contain authentication fields.
• OSPFv3 supports two new LSAs.
• OSPFv3 identifies neighbors based on router IDs only.

IPv6 Routing Protocol—IS-IS IPv6
IS-IS uses two new TLVs for IPv6 support.

 TLV 236
• Describes network reachability by defining the route prefix and metric.
 TLV 232
• Is similar to the IP Interface Address TLV of IPv4, except that it changes a
32-bit IPv4 address to a 128-bit IPv6 address.

IPv6 Routing Protocol—BGP4+
BGP4+
 BGP4+ applies to IPv6 unicast networks.
 MP-BGP uses two new optional non-transitive attributes:
