Can two devices have the same IPv6 address?

Yes. Private IP addresses of two different networks can be same.

How do you know if two IPv6 addresses belong to the same subnet?

1 Answer. I order to determine if two hosts are on the same subnet take both their addresses and prefix lengths (subnet masks). If the prefix lengths are different then they are not on the same network.

Why do I have 2 ivp6 addresses?

Because new addresses are generated regularly the addresses are marked as temporary . A device can have multiple privacy extension addresses if the system is still using an old address when a new address is being generated. The system will keep the old address for as long as necessary.

Can there be two identical IP addresses?

As I understand it, two computers cannot have the same public (external) IP address unless they are connected via the same router. If they are connected via the same router, then they can have (share) the same public IP address yet have different private (local) IP addresses.

Can two network interfaces have the same IP address why or why not?

You cannot use the same IP address on multiple interfaces. It just won’t work properly (usually it will only work on the last interface the IP was assigned on). You need to put the ethernet interfaces into a bridge and assign the IP address on the bridge itself.

How can two computers use the same IP address?

Two computers cannot have same address when they are using IPs from public address space if they are connected to the Internet. However, if those two networks are not connected to Internet, they can use the same Public IPs. But like in the first case, there has to be a NAT in place.

How do you know if two devices are on the same network?

This means that, in order for devices to be on the same network, the first number of their IP addresses has to be the same for both devices. In this case, a device with the IP address of 10.47. 8.4 is on the same network as the device with the IP address listed above.

How many IPv6 addresses are normal?

IPv6 uses a 128-bit address, theoretically allowing 2128, or approximately 3.4×1038 addresses. The actual number is slightly smaller, as multiple ranges are reserved for special use or completely excluded from use.

What is classless and Classful addressing?

Classful addressing is an IP address allocation method that allocates IP addresses according to five major classes. Classless addressing is an IP address allocation method that is designed to replace classful addressing to minimize the rapid exhaustion of IP addresses.
