Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which command automatically generates an IPv6 address from aspecified IPv6 prefix and MAC address of an interface?
A
ipv6 address dhcp
B
ipv6 address autoconfig
C
ipv6 address 2001:DB8:5:112:2/64 link-local
D
ipv6 address 2001:DB8:5:112:2/64 eui-64
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Interface ID IPv6 hosts can use the Neighbor Discovery protocol to automatically generate their own interface IDs. Neighbor Discovery automatically generates the interface ID, based on the MAC or EUI-64 address of the host’s interface.

Detailed explanation-2: -IPv6 has eight header fields with a 40-character length; IPv4 has 20 header fields with an eight-character length. IPv6 does not have any checksum fields. To map MAC addresses, IPv6 uses NDP (Neighbor Discovery Protocol), while IPv4 uses ARP (address resolution protocol).
