We can further simplify shorten and compress IPv6 Addresses using following methods.Ĭonsider the IPv6 Address 2001:0db8:0000:000b:0000:0000:0000:001A as an example. IPv6 addresses often contain consecutive zeros.
Somehow we need to shorten and simplify IPv6 addresses to use it with more ease in our day-to-day life. Think about the pain in typing all those IPv6 address hexadecimal characters in any shell prompt. Consider a situation where you need to ping to an IPv6 address 2001:0db8:0000:000b:0000:0000:0000:001A to check the network connectivity.
IPv6 addresses are 128 bit binary numbers (represented in hexadecimal format), which are so lengthy and difficult handle in our day-to-day life.
