Subject: Why does IPV6 link local address advertised as /64?
Date: Tue, 11 Nov 2008 20:49:06 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081111204906.081d9d57@extreme> (raw)
It seems to make more sense to have only the actual host (ie /128)
on the link-local address or is there some other purpose to
using a /64?
