Detailed explanation-1: -A Solicited-Node multicast address is an IPv6 multicast address used by the Neighbor Discovery Protocol to verify whether a given IPv6 address is already used by the local-link or not, through a process called DAD (Duplicate Address Detection).
Detailed explanation-2: -FF /8 is the IPv6 multicast range.
Detailed explanation-3: -Solicited-Node Multicast The structure consists of the fixed prefix FF02::1:FF00:0/104 and the last 24 bits of the corresponding IPv6 address. These special multicast groups are used for address resolution, neighbor discovery, and duplicate address detection.
Detailed explanation-4: -FF02:0:0:0:0:1:FF is fixed and consists of 104 bits, and XX:XXXX is the last 24 bits of an IPv6 unicast address or anycast address.
