Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

What type of address is automatically assigned to an interface when IPv6 is enabled on that interface?

A	unique local
B	link-local
C	global unicast
D	loopback

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -When IPv6 is enabled on any interface, that interface will automatically generate an IPv6 link-local address.

Detailed explanation-2: -To be an IPv6-enabled device, a device must have an IPv6 link-local address. The device doesn’t have to have an IPv6 global unicast address, but it must have a link-local address. Link-local addresses are not routable off the link (IPv6 subnet).

Detailed explanation-3: -Global Unicast These addresses can be used on the Internet. The big difference with IPv4 however, is that IPv6 has so much address space that we can use global unicast addresses on any device in the network.

Detailed explanation-4: -Dynamic IP addresses are easier to manage and cheaper to deploy than static IP addresses. Easy, automatic configuration: With a dynamic IP address, the DHCP server automatically assigns the device the next available IP address. You don’t need to do a thing.
