Implementing Cisco IP Routing (CCNP ROUTE, legacy) — Question 8

Which IPv6 address type is seen as the next-hop address in the output of the show ipv6 rip RIPng database command?

Answer options

• A. link-local
• B. global
• C. site-local
• D. anycast
• E. multicast

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, link-local, as link-local addresses are used for communication within a single local network segment and are typically used as next-hop addresses in routing protocols like RIPng. The other options, such as global, site-local, anycast, and multicast, serve different purposes in IPv6 addressing and are not specifically designated as next-hop addresses in this context.
