Answer options

• A. Anycast
• B. Unicast
• C. Broadcast
• D. Multicast

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, Multicast, as it is the method used in IPv6 to send data to multiple hosts simultaneously. Anycast (A) is for sending data to the nearest of multiple destinations, Unicast (B) is for one-to-one communication, and Broadcast (C) is not supported in IPv6.
