What is an IPv6 address?

An IPv6 address is an identification assigned to a computer host on the Internet. IPv6 is the version 6 of IP address standard. It uses 128 bits or 16 bytes to represent IP addresses.

A 16-byte IPv6 address is normally represented hexadecimal digits and divided into 8 groups separated by colons (:). For example, "2001:0db8:0000:0000:0000:ff00:0042:8329" is an IPv6 address.

For convenience, an IPv6 address may be compressed to reduce its length using these rules.

• One or more leading zeroes from any groups of hexadecimal digits are removed; this is usually done to either all or none of the leading zeroes. For example, the above IPv6 address can be abbreviated as: "2001:db8:0:0:0:ff00:42:8329".
• Consecutive sections of zeroes are replaced with a double colon (::). The double colon may only be used once in an address, as multiple use would render the address indeterminate. For example, the above IPv6 address can be abbreviated as: "2001:db8::ff00:42:8329".

Addresses generated by this tool consist of 9 different types of IPv6 address notations:

• Expanded Format of True IPv6 Address - All 32 hex digits in the IPv6 address are presented. Here is an example: "2001:0db8:0000:0000:0000:ff00:0042:8329".
• Condensed Format of True IPv6 Address - Leading 0s in each segment are removed. Here is an example: "2001:db8:0:0:0:ff00:42:8329".
• Compressed Format of True IPv6 Address - Components of the IPv6 address are compressed. Here is an example: "2001:db8::ff00:42:8329".
• Dual Format of IPv4 Mapped Address - The IPv4 address is appended to a special IPv6 prefix of "0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:ffff:" or "::ffff:". Here is an example: "::ffff:192.168.100.101".
• Hex Format of IPv4 Mapped Address - The IPv4 address is converted to 2 IPv6 segments and appended to a special IPv6 prefix of "::ffff:". Here is an example: "::ffff:c0a8:6465".
• Dual Format of NAT64 Prefix Address - The IPv4 address is appended to a special IPv6 prefix of "0064:ff9b:0000:0000:0000:0000:" or "64:ff9b::". Here is an example: "64:ff9b::192.168.100.101".
• Hex Format of NAT64 Prefix Address - The IPv4 address is converted to 2 IPv6 segments and appended to a special IPv6 prefix of "64:ff9b::". Here is an example: "64:ff9b::c0a8:6465".
• 6to4 Mapping of IPv4 Address - The IPv4 address is converted to 2 IPv6 segments, appended to a special IPv6 prefix of "2002", and followed by 5 segments of "0000". Here is an example: "2002:c0a8:6465::".
• Dual Format of IPv6-IPv4 Combination - The IPv4 address is appended to an 6-IPv6-segment prefix. Here is an example: "2001:db8::ff00:42:8329:192.168.100.101".
