Detailed explanation-1: -In precise terms, an IPv6 address is 128 bits long and is arranged in eight groups, each of which is 16 bits. Each group is expressed as four hexadecimal digits and the groups are separated by colons. An IPv6 address is split into two parts: a network and a node component.
Detailed explanation-2: -A network numbered “10.0. 0.0/8” (which is one of those reserved for private use) is a network with eight bits of network prefix, denoted by “/8” after the oblique. The “8” denotes that there are 24 bits left over in the network to contain IPv4 host addresses: 16, 777, 216 addresses to be exact.
Detailed explanation-3: -Class B addresses: The first 16 bits of the IP address are used for the network ID. The final 16 bits are for the host ID. Class C addresses: The first 24 bits of the IP address are used for the network ID. The final 8 bits are for the host ID.
