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" IPv6 address.

For convenience, an IPv6 address may be abbreviated 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".

An IPv6 address can also include an IPv4 address component in a Dual format of "y:y:y:y:y:y:x.x.x.x". For example: "2001:db8:3333:4444:5555:6666:1.2.3.4".
