Adjacencies and next-hop attributes now use link-local addresses, and OSPFv3 still uses multicast traffic to send its updates and acknowledgments with the addresses
FF02::5 for OSPF routers and
FF02::6 for OSPF designated routers. These are the replacements for
224.0.0.5 and
224.0.0.6, respectively.
4. Which of the following is true when describing a multicast address?
Options
A. Packets addressed to a unicast address are delivered to a single interface.
B. Packets are delivered to all interfaces identified by the address. This is also called a one-to-many address.
C. Identifies multiple interfaces and is only delivered to one address. This address can also be called one-to-one-of-many.
D. These addresses are meant for nonrouting purposes, but they are almost globally unique so it is unlikely they will have an address overlap.
Correct Answer: Packets are delivered to all interfaces identified by the address. This is also called a one-to-many address.
Explanation:
Packets addressed to a multicast address are delivered to all interfaces identified by the multicast address, the same as in IPv4. It is also called a one-to-many address. You can always tell a multicast address in IPv6 because multicast addresses always start with
FF.
5. You want to ping the loopback address of your local host(with IPv6). What will you type?
