IPv6 Address Notation
Since the IPv6 address is 128-bit and extremely long, this address is displayed using "xxxx", which describes 16-bit in hexadecimals as being one block that is separated by colons (":").
xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx
• The current setting is displayed with 0 - ffff (hexadecimal, "a" - "f" are lowercase letters)
• Up to 128-bit
• The first 64-bit (prefix) of the link local address is fixed to "fe80::"
The following three abbreviation methods are available for IPv6 addresses:
(1) Omission of the first "0" of a block that follows consecutive zeros.
[Example] 2001:1000:0120:0000:0000:0123:0000:0000
↓
2001:1000:120:0000:0000:123:0000:0000
(2) Replacement of "0000" blocks with "0".
[Example] 2001:1000:120:0000:0000:123:0000:0000
↓
2001:1000:120:0:0:123:0:0
(3) Replacement of a block with consecutive zeros by "::" is performed only once.
[Example] 2001:1000:120:0:0:123:0:0
↓
2001:1000:120::123:0:0 is OK
2001:1000:120::123:: is not allowed (Replacement of a block with consecutive zeros by "::" is allowed only once.)
